#CryptoSecurity101 : Guarding Your Digital Gold
In the decentralized world of crypto, you are your own bank, making robust security paramount. The golden rule: "Not your keys, not your coins."
Prioritize self-custody with hardware wallets (cold storage) for significant holdings, keeping your private keys offline. For trading, use reputable exchanges and always enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) – ideally via an authenticator app, not SMS.
Be relentlessly vigilant against scams. Phishing attempts, fake giveaways, and "guaranteed returns" are rampant. Always double-check URLs, verify sources, and never share your seed phrase or private keys with anyone. Use strong, unique passwords for all accounts and avoid public Wi-Fi for crypto activities. Regularly update your software and devices. Your vigilance is your strongest defense against hacks and fraud. Stay safe, stay secure!
