Security is paramount when dealing with cryptocurrency. Follow these essential practices to keep your digital assets safe.
Use Hardware Wallets
Hardware wallets like Ledger provide the highest level of security by keeping your private keys offline and away from potential hackers.
Enable Two-Factor Authentication
Always enable 2FA on all your cryptocurrency exchange accounts and any service that supports it. Use authenticator apps rather than SMS when possible.
Keep Your Recovery Phrase Secure
Your 24-word recovery phrase is the master key to your crypto. Store it offline in a secure location, and never share it with anyone.
Beware of Phishing Attacks
Always verify URLs before entering sensitive information. Bookmark official websites and never click on suspicious links in emails.
Regular Software Updates
Keep your Ledger Live application and device firmware up to date to benefit from the latest security patches.
