NEW TO BINANCE ?: Here are 5 steps to secure your Binance account and protect your cryptos.

Are you new to the world of cryptocurrencies? Welcome! It's an exciting journey full of opportunities, but with a golden rule you must not forget: security comes first.

In this article, I will guide you through 5 essential steps to secure your Binance account.

1. Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) - Your first line of defense

What is it? It's a second level of security that requires an additional code to log in, in addition to your password.

Why is it crucial? If a hacker gets your password, they won't be able to access your account without this code.

2. Create a Strong and Unique Password - Forget about "123456"

Golden rule: Your Binance password must be different from your email, social media, or any other account.

Practical tip: Use a combination of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols.

3. Activate the Withdrawal Address List (Whitelist)

What is it? It's a feature that allows you to authorize only the wallet addresses to which you can send your cryptos.

How does it protect you? If a hacker manages to access your account, they won't be able to send your funds to their own address since it won't be on your whitelist. They will have to wait 24 hours to add it, giving you time to react and freeze the account.

Action: Set it up today in the "Security" section of your account.

4. Use the Withdrawal Access Key (PIN)

What is it? A 6-digit code that is requested every time you try to withdraw funds, even after you have logged in.

Benefit: It's an additional layer of security. Just like the PIN for your debit card, only you should know it.

Remember: Don't use birthdays or easy-to-guess numbers.

5. Learn to Identify Phishing - Don't fall into the trap

Vital tip: Always access Binance by typing the official address in your browser or through the official app. #BinanceSeguro #ProtegeTuCuenta
