mine crypto as a hobby

Okay I'll admit it — I mostly mine crypto as a hobby on an old gaming PC, so I'm not some whale with millions. But I've collected small amounts of about ten different coins over the last two years: some BTC from a mining pool that pays out in satoshis, some ETH from before the merge, some Ravencoin just for fun, and random Doge from faucets back in the day. Finding a wallet that supports all of them without needing ten separate apps was a nightmare until I found jaxx liberty. It supports over 80 assets including all the majors and some niche ones like DGB and ZEC. What I love as a small-time miner: the "transaction history" tab actually shows you the block confirmations for each incoming transfer, so I can see when my mining payouts are fully confirmed without opening a block explorer. I also love that I can export my private keys individually for each asset — when I wanted to move my RVN to a Ravencoin-specific wallet to stake it (Jaxx doesn't have staking), I just went into settings, clicked "view private keys" for Ravencoin, copied it, and swept it into the other wallet. Took thirty seconds. The only thing that annoyed me: the first time I installed, it asked me to choose between "Bitcoin" and "Bitcoin Cash" during setup because they share the same derivation path family, and I accidentally picked the wrong one. Had to reinstall and start over. So pay attention during that step. Other than that, for a hobbyist who just wants one place to see all his random mining leftovers without paying exchange fees to consolidate, Jaxx Liberty Jaxx Liberty | Multi-platform Digital Asset Wallet has been great. It's been running on my old tablet for almost a year without a single crash. Just update it manually from the official site every few months.
