I mean, of course the software and the wallets get better all the time, but as it stands, it is pretty scary and oftentimes introducing too much complexity and trying, whilst trying to guard your funds. And I've done this personally. I'm not even ashamed to admit it because I want people to understand that you can be the biggest risk to your savings as well if you, if you try to be too clever and create something unbreakable and then In the end, you will not be able to break in yourself.
