Cold storage is the practice of keeping a reserve of cryptocurrencies offline, away from any internet connection. Much different to hot storage, where assets are stored online and accessible via the internet. The primary advantage of cold storage lies in its heightened security, making it significantly less susceptible to hacking, phishing, and other forms of cyber-attacks.
Cold storage provides crypto owners with heightened security, eliminating the risk of online attacks, thus providing an extra layer of security against cyber threats. Additionally, cold storage ensures that your assets are safe from malicious software that could otherwise infiltrate and steal from online wallets. As such, cold storage is the perfect way to hold your cryptocurrency for longer periods of time.
ICONOMI Vault is our new, state-of-the-art cold storage solution, exclusively available to ICONOMI Private and ICONOMI Premium users. This feature allows you to securely place your Bitcoin and Ethereum assets into cold storage, providing peace of mind and exceptional protection against potential threats.
With ICONOMI Vaults, we provide a seamless transition to cold storage. The process is as simple as copying a Crypto Strategy or buying a single asset on ICONOMI. We handle the entire process of transferring your assets off-chain to a cold wallet. Once there, the assets are kept offline and only accessible once you explicitly permit their access.
Log in to your ICONOMI account and head to your dashboard. There, you will see an option to add funds to ICONOMI Vault:
By pressing “Add Funds,” a window will open and take you through the process.
First, you’ll need to select which asset you want to put to cold storage - Bitcoin or Ethereum.
Once you select your asset, you’ll need to specify which asset you want to be used for the transfer. If you have Bitcoin, then no transaction will need to be made, and your Bitcoin will be moved to cold storage. If you don’t have Bitcoin, you’ll need to buy it using a different asset you have. Here, trading fees may apply.
Next, you’ll specify how much of the desired asset you wish to move to ICONOMI Vault. The minimum amount you can move to cold storage is 1000€ worth of either Bitcoin or Ethereum.
Finally, you’ll be able to review the transfer, see the entry fee and any potential trading fees charged, and confirm the transfer.
That’s it! With a few simple steps, you will have transferred your crypto to cold storage, where it will be securely held offline!
ICONOMI Vaults is available only for users who choose ICONOMI Private or ICONOMI Premium.
