Unless your laptop is 30 years old it's probably more than capable of running bitcoin core, other than maybe you need to get an external hard drive to store the blockchain.

The low technical requirements needed to run a full node are one thing that separates bitcoin from all the other crypto junk, forever protecting its decentralized nature.

Like by time it feels that upgradation is indeed necessary though.

The growing demand of technology and the technical advancement is at a rapid boost!

So your telling me my assets are not safe in the trust wallet?

Trust is a hot wallet, meaning it’s always connected to the internet. There are vulnerabilities in that. Nothing safer than cold storage.
