Are those secure? Would you create a “wallet” account with these??

I have - used Coinbase.

I stupidly sold some and got my money electronically deposited into my account.

So far I’ve doubled my money in little over a month.

Well, they’re all encrypted with a “private key”. It’s so secure that if you lose your private key - it’s like taking paper dollars and burning them, because you’ll never recover your money. That’s how secure it is from someone else taking it. They have to also steal your private key or else it’s absolutely worthless.

A lot of people are NOT RESPONSIBLE ENOUGH to even handle how secure it is - because either they won’t protect their private key adequately (meaning someone can steal it) — or else they will lose it and therefore - lose their money right along with it.

Some people don’t like how secure it is because they know how irresponsible they are, themselves ... :-) ...
