Security in crypto isn’t optional—it’s survival.
Here’s how I protect my crypto assets like my life depends on it (because sometimes, it does):
Cold Storage First
I store the majority of my assets in a hardware wallet (Ledger Nano X)—offline, away from prying eyes. Hot wallets are only for small, active funds.
2FA on Everything
Every exchange, wallet, and crypto-related account is locked with app-based 2FA (Authy, not SMS). I never reuse passwords, and I use a password manager with its own 2FA.
Seed Phrase = Sacred
My seed phrase is written down and stored in a waterproof metal capsule hidden in a secure location. No cloud backups. No photos. No leaks.
Phishing is Real
I almost clicked a fake MetaMask update email once. Looked so legit. Now, I bookmark official sites and double-check every URL before logging in.
Stay Alert, Stay Ahead
I follow @zachxbt, @peckshield, and @rektcapital for security alerts and scam updates. Telegram and Discord groups can be info goldmines and danger zones, so I tread carefully.
Air-gapped Laptop for Big Moves
For large transactions or smart contract interactions, I use an old laptop that never touches public Wi-Fi. Sounds paranoid—until it saves you.
Tip: If you’re serious about crypto, your security should match your portfolio goals.
You don’t need to be a cybersecurity expert—but you do need a strategy.
Your keys, your coins. Stay sharp.
