Crypto Security 101:

Keeping your crypto safe is crucial. Unlike banks, if you lose your crypto, it’s likely gone forever.

Must-Know Basics:

Use Cold Wallets:

Store long-term crypto in hardware wallets (e.g., Ledger, Trezor) that stay offline.

Hot wallets (online) are riskier.

Never Share Private Keys or Seed Phrases:

These give full access to your funds. Anyone who has them can steal everything.

Enable 2FA (Two-Factor Authentication):

Adds an extra layer of protection on exchanges and wallets.

Beware of Scams & Phishing:

Double-check URLs, avoid suspicious links, and never trust random DMs offering “help” or “investments.”

Keep Software Updated:

Wallets, antivirus, and devices should always be current to avoid vulnerabilities.

Use Reputable Exchanges:

Stick to well-known, regulated platforms with a history of good security.

Tip:

“Not your keys, not your coins.” If you don’t control the keys, the crypto isn’t truly yours.
