“为什么我需要在硬设备上监护比特币？” - 基金会设备首席执行官解释说明

人们经常会问：“我，我自己拘留它，让我像Coinbase这样的别人有什么区别，但是他们可能会理解这种区别，但是为什么我需要在硬设备上监护它？”

People will often ask the question, ‘What’s the difference between me, custodying it myself, me letting someone else like Coinbase custody, but then they might understand that distinction, but why do I need to custody it on a hard device?’

人们经常会问一个问题：“我自己，我自己监护，我让别人像Coinbase监护权一样有什么区别，但是他们可能会理解这种区别，但是我为什么需要在硬装置上托管它？”

That was the question posed by Roundtable host Rob Nelson during an interview with Zack Herbert, CEO of Foundation Devices, a company specializing in Bitcoin self-custody hardware.

这就是圆桌会议主持人罗布·纳尔逊（Rob Nelson）在接受专门从事比特币自我顾客硬件公司的公司首席执行官Zack Herbert采访时提出的问题。

Herbert broke down the different levels of Bitcoin self-custody and the risks involved with keeping digital assets on internet-connected devices.

赫伯特（Herbert）打破了不同水平的比特币自我顾客，以及将数字资产保存在互联网连接设备上的风险。

The risks of hot wallets

热钱包的风险

Herbert emphasized that there are two main types of self-custody. Hot wallets, which are connected to the internet and typically found on mobile devices or computers. Cold storage, where Bitcoin is held on a device that remains offline, making it much more secure against hacking attempts.

赫伯特强调，有两种主要类型的自我观念类型。热钱包，连接到Internet，通常在移动设备或计算机上找到。冷存储，将比特币固定在脱机设备上，使其更安全地防止黑客尝试。

"Firstly, I think there’s two different types of self-custody. One is on an internet-connected device, like your phone—we would call that a mobile wallet. Or even a hot wallet is the more common term," Herbert explained.

赫伯特解释说：“首先，我认为有两种不同类型的自我顾客。一个是在互联网连接的设备上，例如您的手机 - 我们会称其为移动钱包。甚至是热钱包是更常见的术语。”

He pointed out that while hot wallets are convenient, they come with inherent risks.

他指出，尽管热钱包很方便，但它们具有固有的风险。

“With Bitcoin or crypto, you really don’t want to put too much money’s worth on an internet-connected device because it’s susceptible to things like hacks or if there’s a vulnerability in the software,” he said.

他说：“借助比特币或加密货币，您真的不想在与互联网连接的设备上投入太多的钱，因为它容易受到诸如hacks之类的东西，或者如果软件中存在脆弱性。”

Herbert urged users to research past security breaches, noting, “Over the last decade, you can go Google. There’s been dozens and actually probably hundreds of different kinds of hacks and vulnerabilities and thefts for software wallets, for wallets on your phone or on your computer.”

赫伯特（Herbert）敦促用户研究过去的安全漏洞，并指出：“在过去的十年中，您可以使用Google。实际上，有数十种不同种类的黑客攻击，漏洞和盗窃软件钱包，手机上的钱包或计算机上的钱包。”

Why cold storage is essential

为什么冷藏是必不可少的

For those holding large amounts of Bitcoin, Herbert strongly recommends using offline storage solutions like hardware wallets.

对于那些拥有大量比特币的人，赫伯特强烈建议使用诸如硬件钱包之类的离线存储解决方案。

“It’s okay to store a small amount of Bitcoin or crypto on an internet-connected device. But best practice is you want to actually store a large amount—if it’s tens of thousands of dollars, hundreds of thousands of dollars, or millions of dollars—on offline devices that are not connected to the internet.”

“可以在互联网连接的设备上存储少量的比特币或加密货币。但是最好的做法是，您想在离线设备中实际上存储大量（如果是数万美元，数十万美元，数十万美元或数百万美元）。

This method, known as cold storage, ensures that even if an attacker compromises a user’s online wallet, the funds remain safe.

这种称为冷藏的方法可确保攻击者损害用户的在线钱包，这些资金仍然安全。

Herbert highlighted Foundation Devices’ Passport, a Bitcoin hardware wallet designed for maximum security.

赫伯特（Herbert）强调了基金会设备的护照，这是一个旨在最大安全性的比特币硬件钱包。

“With our Passport device, for example, it’s fully offline. We call it air-gapped. The only way you can get data to and from it is with the camera, which scans QR codes, or with the SD card slot on top.”

“例如，使用我们的护照设备，它完全离线。我们称其为空白。您可以将数据往返数据的唯一方法是扫描QR码的相机或顶部的SD卡插槽。”

He further explained, “Even if you were using a wallet on your phone that was compromised, it would not be able to trick you and not be able to steal your funds, keeping those funds offline.”

他进一步解释说：“即使您在手机上使用了被妥协的钱包，它也无法欺骗您，无法窃取您的资金，使这些资金保持离线。”
