Exodus Bitcoin Wallet: $490k swindle

1. Boot Tails from USB

and that's an attack vector/point of doubt that you bring in into the equation. You need a trustful source for Tails, the USB drive and the surrounding OS.

One can turn it as one wants: "cryptos" are not safe.

And I am saying this as someone who's holding a handful of values on different crypto currencies. And I know it is insane.

You shouldn't and you don't need to, it's completely open source, even the hardware.

Just download it from a trusted source verified by trusted (permissioned) PKI infrastructure.
