🚨Crypto Security Essentials
Protecting your crypto assets requires proactive measures:
1. Cold Storage: Use hardware wallets (Ledger, Trezor) to keep keys offline, away from hackers.
2. 2FA & Strong Passwords: Enable Google Authenticator and avoid reused passwords.
3. Smart Contract Audits: Verify projects are audited (e.g., CertiK) before investing.
4. Phishing Awareness: Double-check URLs—scammers mimic sites like MetaMask.
5. Multi-Sig Wallets: Require multiple approvals for transactions (ideal for teams).
Risks to Avoid:
- Sharing seed phrases (never input online).
- Blindly connecting wallets to dApps (revoke unused permissions via Etherscan).
