I'm gonna buy the classic one and I'm thinking about buying with LTC but I might have a small problem. I'm gonna buy LTC from Paribu and I'm gonna withdraw the amount to Trust Wallet and I'm planning to transfer it from there. I've been trying to plan about this for 58 hours. I've been reading all of the things. I'm so much overthinking maybe. I wanna be cautious as possible. Is it a good choice or am I making a mistake?
It's a valid choice and it's a proper way to use crypto: exchange -> own wallet -> paying to others. I've never used Trust Wallet but it's a popular wallet and it fulfils the condition of being a real wallet:
Protect your assets by creating multiple secure backups. Trust Wallet does not control or have a copy of your secret phrase, so store your backup in a secure place, and consider using Trust Wallet’s Encrypted Cloud Backup feature for an extra layer of protection.
Any wallet where you keep the private key in your control can be called a real wallet, so that's good. However I DO NOT recommend using any of their cloud backup services. Keep your backups local, on your own devices you physically control.
Trust Wallet is popular and completely fine. Here are some of my personal recommendations in case anyone is interested:
- BTC - Electrum
- LTC - Electrum-LTC
- ETH - MetaMask or MyEtherWallet
Right now it seems you are doing everything correctly to safely acquire and store your crypto. Just remember that covering fees during payment is your responsibility. If you have any doubts during the process feel free to ask. It's always better to ask before doing something irreversible.
One more thing. Beware of phishing scams targetting Trust Wallet, they are really popular. I've received dozens of emails trying to convince me to reveal my secret phrase. Ignore such messages and never share this information with ANYONE.
