Cold storage typically means a hardware device or another offline method that only connects when you actively move funds. Because the private keys never sit on an internet-connected machine, cold wallets are the usual choice for holding larger amounts over time.<\/p>\n<p>For a casino player, cold storage matters in two ways. It is where it makes sense to keep winnings you are not actively playing with, rather than leaving them on a site, and it is also what reputable operators use to secure the bulk of customer funds against hacks. Remember that whenever your balance sits on a casino, those coins are under the operator&#8217;s control, not yours.<\/p>\n<p>For example, you might deposit only what you plan to play from a hot wallet, then withdraw any winnings to a hardware cold wallet you alone control for safer keeping.<\/p>\n<h2>Related terms<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"\/glossary\/on-chain-deposit\/\">On-chain deposit<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/glossary\/kyc\/\">KYC<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Guide: <a href=\"\/learn\/how-crypto-deposits-work\/\">how crypto deposits work<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A cold wallet stores crypto keys offline, away from the internet, making it safer for long-term holdings than a hot wallet or a casino balance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_bjp_faq":"","_bjp_desc":"","_bjp_takeaways":"","_bjp_difficulty":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-34","glossary","type-glossary","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitjackpot.de.com\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/glossary\/34","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitjackpot.de.com\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/glossary"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitjackpot.de.com\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/glossary"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/bitjackpot.de.com\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/glossary\/34\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":71,"href":"https:\/\/bitjackpot.de.com\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/glossary\/34\/revisions\/71"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitjackpot.de.com\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
