Wallets, Errors, and Other Security Nightmares

So let's talk about #CryptoSecurity101. I don't care how optimistic you are. If your seed phrase is saved on your iCloud, you are not a trader. You are exit liquidity for a guy in a Telegram group called “0xSnipersElite.”

Hot wallets are good. Until they aren't. They are like unlocked scooters. Convenient, fast, and begging to be stolen. You open a sketchy website, approve something out of boredom, and just like that, your funds go to a better life.

Cold wallets? They don't do much. And that's the point. They don't sign anything unless you press the button. They don't sync by themselves. They don't click on random links. They just sit there. Offline. Silent. Holding your crypto like a dragon sitting on gold.

Me? I prefer to spend five minutes with a cold wallet than five months begging support to restore something that cannot be restored. There is no support. This is crypto. The only customer service is paranoia.

Best practice?

Treat links like loaded weapons. Disconnect wallets from any app you are not actively using. Split your holdings. Use hot wallets for playing, cold ones for sleeping. Back up your phrases somewhere you can't accidentally upload or forget.

Staying SAFU is not glamorous.

It's just the only way to survive long enough to make the next mistake.
