What is the best USDT coin wallet?

[marth7]

Hi guys, I'm looking for advice on a crypto wallet for USDT. Can you recommend something? I'm definitely more into cold wallets, but I don't know much about them, so I'll probably have to go with a client wallet. What types are there anyway? Which one would be the best to install?

Also, I’d rather not use an exchange wallet. To be honest, I’m afraid they might pull a scam, as has happened more than once before.

ledger or trezor only real options for cold storage. metamask for hot wallet but NEVER store seed online

 

[DaveGasFee]

first question - which chain you using? eth usdt? tron? bsc?

 

[marth7]

@DaveGasFee honestly no idea... just want safest option

heads up - seeing new wave of fake metamask sites in google ads. always download from official site

friendly reminder to never share seed phrase, even if "wallet support" dms you

@marth7 genuine question - why usdt not usdc?

 

[marth7]

@deantherat local p2p traders only use usdt here... not much choice

Since you're new to cold storage, here's proper USDT security setup:

Hardware:

• Ledger/Trezor for main holdings
• Fresh metamask install for transactions
• Burner hot wallet for daily use

Essential steps:

1. Buy hardware wallet ONLY from official store
2. Generate seed offline
3. Physical backup in multiple locations
4. Test with small amounts first
5. Always verify receive address

Common mistakes to avoid:

• Screenshot/digital seed storage
• Connecting hw wallet to sketchy dapps
• Using cracked ledger live
• Keeping large amounts in hot wallet

Extra tips:

• Use separate emails for each wallet
• Enable all security features
• Regular malware scans
• Keep firmware updated

Happy to help with setup if needed

exodus wallet pretty good for beginners tbh

 

[ETH.lord]

exodus closed source tho... not your keys not your coins
