Unlike traditional hardware wallets that are designed for long-term storage, burner hardware wallets are intended to be used briefly and then discarded or reset. This approach minimizes security risks by reducing the attack surface and exposure time of private keys. They are particularly popular in the Ethereum ecosystem and other EVM-compatible blockchain networks.
