Security habits
The habits are boring, which is why they work. Bookmark the real site. Split the wallets. Never put the seed in a chat.
A short list
- Open exchanges and wallets from bookmarks you made, not from search ads.
- Spending wallet and savings wallet are different.
- The seed is on paper, not in a screenshot.
- Updates come from the vendor you already use, not from a DM.
- A prize is not a reason to connect a wallet.
The check, applied to yourself
Who gets paid if you click this. Usually the attacker. Who can change the rules. The site you have never used. Who can take the money. The approval you are about to sign.
Check yourself
Where should the seed phrase live?
Offline, written down, not in a chat, a photo, or a cloud note.
After this you can keep the seed offline and open financial sites from your own bookmarks.
