#CryptoSecurity101 🔐 Stay SAFU on Binance! 🔐
Crypto security is no joke. With scams and hacks on the rise, protecting your digital assets is more important than ever. Let’s break down the basics:
Hard Wallets vs Cold Wallets
A hard wallet is a type of cold wallet — think USB-like physical devices like Ledger or Trezor that store your crypto offline. They’re immune to online hacks but must be kept safe physically. Cold wallets in general refer to any wallet not connected to the internet, including paper wallets or air-gapped devices. These are best for long-term holdings.
Personal Security Setup
I use a hardware wallet for long-term assets, while trading funds stay in a Binance sub-account with 2FA enabled (Google Authenticator only). Passwords are unique & stored in a password manager. I regularly update devices, avoid public Wi-Fi, and only use official Binance apps.
Best Practices to Stay SAFU
NEVER share your seed phrase or private keys
Enable anti-phishing codes on Binance
Use hardware wallets for large amounts
Double-check URLs and emails
Keep software updated
Consider a dedicated device for crypto only
Remember: Not your keys, not your coins. Stay smart. Stay safe. Stay SAFU! 🛡️
