Hint they are not online.

Mine sure isn't. It's hand written and in a sealed envelope in my fire safe.

However it was provided to me via the internet, and to use it, the pass phrase must be entered via the internet. Two possible points of interception.

That’s not good.

I would suggest getting a Ledger Nano S.

Getting into a wallet is not easy, but it has been done many times. I'm sure there are many thefts that don't make the news, but some have. There has been a couple of high profile stories of loosing multi-million dollar wallets in the last couple of years. I don't know how and I'm sure no one will publicize how they did it. Maybe someone wrote their key down and it was seen, or maybe they had a key logger, or maybe whatever, but it has been done. I have no doubt that it can be done by hacking.

It's sorta like breaking into an Iphone. Nobody can seem to do it until a hacker does it. I'm sure the NSA and CIA can do it before breakfast but they don't want you to know that can get everything on your phone. If one guy can do it, a hundred guys can do it.

BTW, this is why voting machines can't be on the internet.
