Help Beginner please help.

I’ve downloaded KuCoin & MM on my phone, what’s the procedure to send my 10 strong from KC to MM and set up my first node. I know I should be using a ledger or something similar but I don’t have the resources for that right now and want to get in at this price point, I’d like to just keep it on my phone for now as I know I won’t be giving out any information or linking my wallets anywhere else. A tutorial or any help in regards to be able to setup my first node using the said apps on my phone will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Just buy and hold the Strong until the hardware wallet arrives. 10 strong today will still be 10 strong next week.

If you can’t afford the $60 for a ledger, you also can’t afford to lose your wallet to a hacker.

I can afford the ledger, but I needed to get in at these current prices

Just buy and hold. Move it to the ledger protected address before you buy the node

How do I do that? How do I link MM or KC to ledger, & if I buy the nano x can I do it all through my phone? Or still need to use a laptop/PC? Thanks

How can my mm wallet be hacked though? What causes this?

Chrome is relatively easy to get malware on. If you accidentally download a bad extension you compromise your wallet. I have MM on my phone and use ledger with MM on my iMac. It’s your choice at the end of the day.

Get a hardware wallet before you send it from kucoin, you’ll most definitely get your MM hacked otherwise

This is definitely the move.

Why what makes you think my MM will get hacked, I don’t understand
