Basic Security Rules in the Crypto World
Your assets in Web3 are solely your responsibility. One wrong step — and your wallet can be emptied. Here are the essentials that everyone should know:
🚨 Main Threats
- Phishing: Fake websites, emails, and social media stealing seed phrases.
- Malware: Keyloggers that intercept passwords.
- Scam DApps: Contracts with backdoor functions.
🛡️ How to Protect Yourself?
1. Cold Storage: Ledger/Trezor > exchange wallet.
2. Seed Phrase: Only on paper. No screenshots or cloud storage!
3. 2FA: Google Authenticator (not SMS!).
4. Check Contracts: Use revoke.cash and Etherscan for auditing.
5. Separate Device: For crypto operations without social media/games.
