Essential Wallet Security Practices:

To protect your digital assets, it’s important to follow best practices for wallet security. Below are key measures to keep your wallet and private keys safe.

​

Private Key/Seed Phrase Protection:

Never share your private key or seed phrase with anyone. These are critical for accessing and controlling your wallet. If someone else has access to them, they can take full control of your assets.

Always store your seed phrase offline in a secure location. Avoid storing it on devices connected to the internet (e.g., in cloud storage or digital notes).

​

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA):

Enable 2FA wherever possible to add an extra layer of security to your wallet. This ensures that even if your password is compromised, an attacker still cannot access your wallet without the second factor.

​

Beware of Phishing Attacks:

Always verify URLs and websites when connecting your wallet. Phishing sites may look legitimate but are designed to steal your private keys and funds. Never click on suspicious links in emails, social media messages, or pop-ups asking you to connect your wallet or provide private information.

​

Use Hardware Wallets for Added Security:

For maximum security, consider using a hardware wallet (e.g., Ledger or Trezor). Hardware wallets store your private keys offline, making them less susceptible to hacks and malware.

​

Regularly Update Wallet Software:

Keep your wallet software up-to-date to ensure that you have the latest security patches and features. Outdated wallets may be vulnerable to known exploits.

​

Transaction Monitoring

Always double-check transaction details, including addresses and amounts, before confirming any transfer. Malicious software or extensions can alter transaction details without your knowledge.

​

Multi-Signature Wallets:

For high-value wallets or group-owned assets, consider using multi-signature wallets. This requires multiple approvals before a transaction can be executed, reducing the risk of unauthorized transactions.
