Security in Crypto (Digital Currencies) is a very important topic

Here are the main points you need to know to protect yourself:

1. Use Secure Wallets

Cold Wallets: Like hardware wallets (Ledger, Trezor), they are not connected to the internet, making them safer for long-term storage.

Hot Wallets: Like MetaMask and Trust Wallet, they are connected to the internet and easy to use, but more vulnerable to hacking.

2. Protect Your Private Keys

Never share your private keys.

Keep them in a safe place that is not connected to the internet.

If your keys are lost, your money is lost; there is no support like banks.

---

3. Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

Enable two-factor authentication on every platform you use (like Google Authenticator or Authy).

It provides an additional layer of security against hacking.

---

4. Avoid Suspicious Links (Phishing)

Do not click on strange links or untrusted messages in emails or social media.

Always verify that you are on the official site of the platform.

---

5. Choose Reliable Trading Platforms

Use well-known and recognized secure platforms like Binance, Coinbase, Kraken.

Read reviews, and check the level of security they offer.

6. Beware of Fake Projects (Scams)

The crypto space has a lot of scams. Verify the project, study the whitepaper, and the team.

Do not invest just because someone told you "the coin is going to skyrocket."
