$BTC I would keep it. The few bucks won't hurt you overall. Maybe he'll go through again properly, especially as you're talking about 19 years old

@Bein-Godik I had already thought about it. I recently switched everything back from Ledger Nano X to Bison. I've already more than recouped my investment through partial sales.
However, I don't want to buy another hardware wallet. And the Ledger is not so optimal after all.
Well, let's see. I'll have to wait until November/December before I can sell anyway.

@six If you just want to hold it, the ledger is enough. The security concerns are wildly exaggerated. There can be a backdoor in any wallet. If that doesn't let you sleep, then dice yourself a paper wallet

@Bein-Godik It's all quite complicated.
Of course, it should also be easy for the bereaved to access in an emergency. For someone who has no technical interest at all (like my partner), this would be a horror and the Sats would go to waste 😂

@six Just like me😂

@six At least I was able to teach her that the 24 English words in the bank safe deposit box are important

@six You don't have to throw away your ledger, the important thing is the 24 words. As @Bein-Godik rightly says, you can put them in the safe deposit box with a small note, for example. Then you never have to pick up the ledger again :)
In the distant future, you could also buy any other wallet and enter the 24 words - and send your Bitcoin with it.

@stefan_21 I also used Ledger Live. And updated Ledger every now and then. The last time I accidentally deleted everything. That was the dress rehearsal to see if it really works with the recovery with the seed.
But since I don't really have a PC anymore, the updates annoy me. That's exactly why I got the Nano x with Bluetooth, because I wanted to be PC-independent.

@six Important: You don't have to do a single update :)
On the contrary, with hardware wallets it is not always necessary to make every update - see the recovery function that Ledger has suddenly introduced.

It would therefore be completely legitimate if you put the seed phrase in the safe deposit box and the ledger with dazu🤷‍♂️

@six Something similar happened to me with the Trezor. I thought I'd update the firmware after a while and a Windows update popped up at exactly the same moment. Conclusion: Trezor bricked and scrap. Pulse to 180. 0.5 BTC gone ....Support only in English and eternal technical ping pong what I should do... after realizing that I hadn't done anything wrong, they sent me a new one with an 80% discount and then used the holy seed note to recorvern.

I haven't updated it since. 😂

@Papiertiger like 0.5 BTC gone?😲
Didn't you have a backup?

EDIT: You should be able to read😂 that's exactly what the seed is for😅
