    IMO trezor is better the ledger. Trezor is committed to opensource where as ledger's firmware is closed source. Jaxx has a bad track record also. I would suggest not using it.

    Currently, the safest wallet on the market is the Nano ledger wallet

    Wouldn't that be true for any POS chain?

    instead of an arbitrary hash rate, it breaks the energy consumption arms race. This also means that old mining setups aren't necessarily made obsolete by new miners.

    I think they are trying to make an example out of him. He sent a 1 eth tx to sk from nk and gave a public speech. This article is a decent overview of what happened.
