Can you give a basic introduction to hardware wallets? Why are bitcoin "wallets" more like keychains? How do we balance ease of use and security? What are possible ways to attack a hardware wallet? Why should you broadcast transactions through your own full node?
See the documentation and support pages of various hardware wallets for more information:

0:00 Can you talk a bit about hardware wallets?
7:35 Can the USB cable that connects your hardware wallet to your desktop be compromised? Can it leak sensitive information?
15:45 What options are there to have transactions signed on a hardware wallet and validated through your own full node, that is relatively safe and easy?
These questions are from the March and (rescheduled) April monthly Patreon Q&A sessions, as well as 'The Internet of Money' tour in Dublin, Ireland, which took place on March 31st, May 5th, and May 23rd 2018 respectively. Andreas is a teaching fellow with the University of Nicosia. The first course in their Master of Science in Digital Currency degree, DFIN-511: Introduction to Digital Currencies, is offered for free as an open enrollment MOOC course to anyone interested in learning about the fundamental principles.
