A Bitcoin private key created with 256 bits of entropy lies in such a large field of possibilities that current computing power couldn't crack it before the entire universe collapsed back into a singularity. It's safe.
Multisig doesn't increase fault tolerance it multiplies fault potential. More keys to secure, more keys that can be lost or stolen. It makes sense for group endeavors where there is joint ownership. It doesn't make sense for increasing the security posture of an individual owner.
Ensure your key is created with sufficient entropy and store it safely OFFLINE. It's a shame that the influencers convinced so many people to use a hardware wallet who didn't need one. Metal is the safest solution for cold storage.
