title_body: Is Yoroi secure as a primary wallet? I received an IOHK support ticket response this week that recommended I install the Yoroi wallet:
  
  The Daedalus wallet is a full-node wallet, so it can take time to
  install and can be difficult to use depending on your machine and your
  network connection. We have a light wallet that is a chrome extension,
  which is easy to install and use. You can find more info at
  https://yoroi-wallet.com/#/.
  
  This statement appears to be in direct conflict with their article on Cybersecurity Guidelines for Cardano Users. Of course, that article is about Daedalus, but for the end user, it seems confusing. Honestly, I was a bit baffled by the contradiction. I thought Yoroi was primarily an iOS app. Even in Apple's locked down ecosystem, I was having doubts about installing and using it. But as a browser extension? How is that safe enough for them to recommend?
upvoted_answer: I would argue the Yoroi browser extension is much safer than the iOS application.
  Browser extensions provides double-sandboxing and is considered safer than most of the desktop applications. The browser itself is sandboxed from the rest of your computer and the extensions itself is sandboxes from talking directly to other extensions or to other websites unless you explicitly approves it can do so.
  That being said, the most important element in the this process are your private keys. So, whatever you are using Daedalus or Yoroi, always protect your private keys by using a hardware wallet.
