“@xrptipbot I apologize if this question had been asked before. I was asked by a friend who I’ve just introduced to #XRP: What is the means by which XRP is secured with the #XRPTIPBOT? Where is the XRP stored, how is it secured, etc? The Echo skill is going to bring lots of people”

Here, Dr. T responded to the question and stated that Wietse Wind, the creator of XRP Tip Bot uses a cold or hot wallet model to store the currency, similarly to crypto-exchanges.

To secure the funds, the user logins can be 2FA or Two Factor Authentication, such asTwitter and Discord, he added. He also wrote that the monthly withdrawal limits make the large-scale hacks impossible as of now.

Furthermore, Dr. T stated that Wietse Wind might have plans for additional security, such asautomatic regular key/disabling master key script in case of compromise oron-ledger tips that remove the need to store XRP in the XRPTipBot custodial wallet. However, he mentioned that these facts are yet to receive confirmation from the root source, i.e., the creator himself.
