Hardware Wallets

I recommend getting a hardware wallet.
You can store your bitcoin, cryptocurrency and digital assets on them. Essentially, with a hardware wallet you own and are in control of your 'Private Key'. The benefit of them, is they store your 'valuables' in your own private vault, that only you can access. Hardware wallets are a more secure way to store your bitcoin, cryptocurrency and digital assets, rather than keeping them on an 'exchange' which could be hacked and you lose all your 'valuables'.

This can sometimes take a long time, so be prepared for this step.
