Do you have any preference towards a Ledger, Trezor or other?

I believe Trezor is fully open source, while Ledger is not. Both obviously have a good track record though, and have been around for a while. Personally I feel safer with the Trezor, I think the biggest risk to these things is that the key generating algo or hardware is flawed and the key is guessable, which seems less likely for an open source device with many eyes on it.

Lots of shenanigans going around recently as almost all of Ledger’s purchaser history was leaked:

Doesn’t help that almost everyone recommended buying direct as the safe choice to avoid fraudulent devices and/or unscrupulous vendors leaking their buyers...
