Stay #SAFU: Essential Crypto Security Tips
The crypto world is full of opportunities, but also risks—hacks, scams, and human error can wipe out funds in seconds. Here’s how to protect your assets like a pro:
Top Security Practices
1. Use Cold Wallets: Store large holdings in hardware wallets (Ledger, Trezor) to keep keys offline.
2. Enable 2FA Everywhere: Secure exchanges and emails with Google Authenticator (avoid SMS 2FA).
3. Verify Links: Phishing sites mimic Coinbase, MetaMask, etc.—always double-check URLs.
4. Revoke Unused Contracts: Regularly audit token approvals via Etherscan.
Avoid Common Traps
"Too-Good-To-Be-True" Offers: Free airdrops, ETH doubling, or urgent DMs = 100% scams.
Fake Support: No legit team will ask for your seed phrase—never share it.
Malware Risks: Download wallets/extensions only from official sources.
Emergency Plan
Backup seed phrases on metal plates (not digital!).
Split access with multisig wallets for large holdings.
Stay vigilant—crypto is irreversible. DYOR, slow down, and prioritize security over FOMO.
