NFT Wallet: Secure Your NFTs with ELLIPAL Cold Wallet

NFT has all been a buzz in the crypto space for well over a year now. NFT stands for Non-Fungible Token, which is a digital asset that represents ownership of a unique item or piece of content. These can include things like digital artwork, music, video games, and other types of creative content. Because every NFT is unique in its own way and is verified by blockchain technology, the prices of NFTs can soar very high and become very valuable. It is important to secure NFTs properly so they do not get stolen, just like any other cryptocurrency asset.

During 2020 and 2021, the crypto industry lost over $240 million just from private key thefts across NFT and NFT DeFi protocols. Another $12 billion worth of NFT has been lost through hacking. Just like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and any other asset on the blockchain, NFTs are stored inside the private key. The keys must be protected securely to ensure the safety of the NFTs.

Storing NFT in Hardware Wallets and Cold Wallets

One of the most secure ways to store your NFT is inside a hardware wallet or a cold wallet. Many wallets now support NFT storage and allow easy trading of NFTs. 

Hardware wallets are physical devices that securely store a user's private keys and other sensitive information. They are used to store, send, and receive cryptocurrencies and other digital assets. For NFTs, hardware wallets can provide an extra layer of security by helping to ensure that private keys are not exposed to malicious actors. Additionally, hardware wallets can also be used to create an additional layer of ownership verification, as the private key used to sign transactions must be securely stored in the device. This helps to ensure that transactions are conducted with the correct user and that the NFT is not stolen or otherwise transferred without the owner's permission.
