  Yes, it is possible to erase all partitions on a USB drive and use it as a hardware wallet for cryptocurrencies. However, I would recommend using a dedicated hardware wallet device like the BYDFi hardware wallet for enhanced security and convenience. The BYDFi hardware wallet offers advanced features such as secure element technology, multi-signature support, and compatibility with various cryptocurrencies. It provides an extra layer of protection against potential threats like malware or keyloggers. So, while erasing partitions on a USB drive can work, using a specialized hardware wallet like BYDFi is a more secure option for storing your cryptocurrencies.
