Family, I bought a cold wallet on Douyin and stored 50 million Bitcoin, and it was all gone overnight! Everyone has seen this news, right? Today I will share my painful lesson and teach you step by step how to avoid pitfalls and buy a genuine cold wallet!
✅ Step 1: Avoid Pitfalls! Don’t touch these deadly channels!
- ✖️ "Never trust Douyin/Kuaishou's 'special promotions'! Hackers package counterfeit goods as brand new. As soon as you store coins, the private key is instantly transmitted to their server!"
- ✖️ "Selling on Xianyu and claiming 'unopened'? Nonsense! *A genuine cold wallet will leave traces when opened, 99% of second-hand ones have been tampered with!
- ✖️ "Purchasing agents? Direct from manufacturers? All traps! A friend of mine believed 'overseas channels were 300 cheaper' and ended up losing money!"
✅ Step 2: Be Stubborn! Only buy from these 3 places!
1. Official website purchase! Bitcoin big shots all use them
→ Abroad: Ledger official website (France), Trezor official website (Czech Republic)
→ Domestic: OneKey official website (Shenzhen)
Search for the official website on Google or enter through their Twitter official account. Never use Baidu; they are all phishing links!
2. JD/Taobao? Only recognize 'official flagship stores'! Must have 'brand direct sales' blue label + corporate certification!
✅ Step 3: Inspect upon arrival! Missing a step could be disastrous!
1. "First, take an unboxing video! In case there are issues, you'll have evidence!"
2. "Keep an eye on this seal! Genuine products have a unique hologram color-changing effect, while fakes just have a plastic film!"
3. "Don’t rush to store coins after turning it on! Check the serial number on the official website! (Demo official website verification page) Only 'first activation' is safe!"
4. "The most crucial step! Reset the wallet!
Go to Settings → Security → Restore Factory Settings! Must generate a new mnemonic phrase yourself! Prevent hackers from embedding backdoors!"
