@technoprenerd Is metamask safe, dependable? A lot of sites use it and I’m hesitant to transfer currency to something that sits in my browser. Currently don’t have a hardware wallet.

@gritnot I'm aware this isn't directed towards me, so you can disregard my comment if you'd like haha.

Browser wallets generally are much worse security-wise when compared to standalone software wallets (assuming the host OS is secure), or especially hardware wallets. If you don't have the current capability of using a hardware wallet, then use a software wallet on a secure host OS or on a live OS that can be set to store things between sessions like tails.
