Storing bitcoin safely needs to happen offline on a device called a hardware wallet. We call this "cold storage".
Anything stored online can relatively easily be hacked. Storing your bitcoin on a hardware wallet detached from the internet is the single most important thing to do after buying bitcoin.
“Hot” simply means “connected to the internet”, like your phone.
“Cold” devices are not connected to the internet, like a USB stick.
There are dozens of hardware wallet options. We have tried & tested a large variety of options and found that most are secure but also very hard to use. Bitsaga offers 3 hardware wallets with a strong focus on being easy to use and also being bitcoin-only. Being bitcoin only strongly reduces the attack surface of a hardware wallet, making them simpler and safer.

Guided concierge service
When storing larger amounts of bitcoin, wallets protected by a single seed have 2 main concerns:
- Single point of failure (only 1 seed)
- Zero fault tolerance (lose that seed = lose your bitcoin)
Multi-sig wallets can have multiple seeds (for example: 3) and require multiple signatures (for example: 2) to solve these issues elegantly. This way you no longer have a single point of failure since you can lose 1 seed and still maintain full access to your bitcoin.
Bitsaga personally guides you to setup a complete multi-sig wallet best suited for your use case. So you no longer have to worry about your bitcoin and can enjoy full peace of min.
