10 security rules that separate survivors from exit liquidity
You're your own bank. One slip = years of gains gone.
1. Unique passwords everywhere. Password managers exist for a reason.
2. 2FA with authenticator apps or hardware keys. SMS is ngmi.
3. Seed phrase = nuclear codes. Never share. Never screenshot. Never cloud backup.
4. Phishing is evolving. That "urgent" Discord DM? Probably a scam.
5. Verify URLs character by character before wallet connects.
6. Double-check every tx. Clipboard malware swaps addresses.
7. Whitelist withdrawal addresses on CEXs. Slows down hackers.
8. Revoke approvals regularly. Old contracts = open backdoors.
9. Update everything. Secure your email like it's your cold wallet.
10. Hardware wallets for serious holdings. Ledger, Trezor, whatever. Just do it.
A compromised friend's account looks legit until your funds vanish.
Your keys = your responsibility. No customer service to call.
Prevention costs nothing. Recovery costs everything.
Stay paranoid. Stay private. Stay SAFU.
Which rule gets ignored most? My bet: #8. People approve infinite spend and forget.
