Hardware Wallet for security
Due to the recent hack, I have lost quite a fair bit of my crypto asset... And also my three Axies... Still heartbroken and sad and angry at the moment... Even though I am flooded with all the negative emotion, I didn't give up. I have been going through some sites and doing some research on the hardware wallet. Although I already have one SafePal, but I can't connect my SafePal to Metamask. It is more for mobile apps rather than websites. So I have to get myself another one that I can safeguard my Metamask.

Metamask literally has no security at all... If you check out the community forum of Metamask, you will be shocked (just like me), how many have been suffering losses due to hack of their Metamask accounts. So hardware wallet is definitely a MUST!!! Here's the forum thread that I was reading and have a total shock. -> https://community.metamask.io/t/metamask-extension-accounts-hacked-w-o-keys/5609

And from that thread I found out that we actually can comment in EtherScan, PolygonScan, BscScan. So I go and check out my address and here it is, the hacker's Metamask address -> [0x479Eff6483546F45BaF2d3aC765Eb9Be3b27204F](https://bscscan.com/address/0x479eff6483546f45baf2d3ac765eb9be3b27204f#comments). I found out that this hacker is really evil and sick. He/she has been hacking many others. Really sickening.

Ok, let's get back to the main topic of this post... Hardware wallet... Yup! The ones that I know of are SafePal (I already have one, and yes, it's quite a good one if you are more on mobile and BSC, you can get one [HERE](https://shop.safepal.io/products/safepal-hardware-wallet-s1-bitcoin-wallet?ref=elizacheng1)), Ledger and Trezor.

I lost my Axies and I do plan to play Axie Infinity again. So the only hardware wallet that support Ronin is Trezor. Therefore, Trezor is what I have to get. Initially I thought there's just one model Trezor, but no. When I started to look into it, there are two models, Trezor One and Trezor T. 

Both the Trezor One and Trezor T has good security. Their security features include open-source firmware, pass phrase, pin code. Both support over 1000 crypto. But bear in mind, Trezor One doesn't support ADA, XRP, EOS and XTZ. If you plan to hodl these crypto in your Trezor, then you have to choose Trezor T.

What about the major differences of Trezor One and Trezor T? 

First is the price. It is a huge difference. Trezor One is 49 Euro and Trezor T is 159 Euro. 

Then it's the size. Trezor T is slightly bigger than Trezor One. Coz Trezor T has a color touchscreen and Trezor One only has two buttons of its body.

Other sources that I check on are [Coin Bureau](https://www.coinbureau.com/analysis/trezor-models-compared/), [Trezor Blog](https://blog.trezor.io/clash-of-the-titans-trezor-one-vs-trezor-model-t-comparison-adfb871d9a0c), [Crypto Vantage](https://www.cryptovantage.com/best-crypto-wallets/trezor-one-vs-trezor-model-t/).

So I guess I am gonna get myself a Trezor One first. Budget is limited right now. Any of you own a Trezor? Any experience you would like to share? 

P/S: The most important thing when we buy any hardware wallet, please please please, only buy from the official site or official reseller.
