Is Bitcoin Core a hot wallet?
Discussion
Yes
The hottest
And it is supposed to be the safest?
Using a fullnode gives you a level of privacy you can't get usingsomeone else's node
Use a fullnode with a descriptor wallet and HWI
Descriptor?
Yeah you can get your bitcoin core wallet to work with your hardware wallet
I can't afford those hardware wallets...
In that case why not use an air gapped setup, hook up a watch only wallet on your node and use an airgapped device to sign psbts
Or an old phone, factory reset it, load bluewallet or something similar on it. Only connect it to the internet to send beetcoin
If its wallet its not used with hardware device then yes
только если нет копии в бумаге.
