Crypto security essentials:
Protect Your Crypto: Key Principles**
You are your own bank in crypto, bearing full responsibility. Private keys grant absolute control – **never share them**. Transactions are irreversible.
**Secure Storage:** Use hardware wallets** (like Ledger/Trezor) for significant holdings – keys stay offline. Use **software wallets** (e.g., MetaMask) only for smaller, active funds. **Never use exchanges for long-term storage**.
**Guard Your Seed Phrase:** This 12/24-word master key must be written down physically and stored offline/securely (never digitally). Multiple secure copies are wise.
**Stay Vigilant:** Enable **app-based 2FA** on exchanges. Use strong passwords. Be extremely skeptical of offers, links, and anyone asking for keys/seeds. If compromised, act fast.
