As the bull market comes, there will be more thieves who steal coins, so everyone should be careful.
Remember one thing: the private key is your asset. Without the private key, you will lose your money.
There have been a lot of things happening recently. Some exchanges have frozen large accounts, and some people have had nearly 2 million coins stolen.
Let's talk about how to store coins safely.
First of all, don't put your money in the exchange. What if they block your account or run away? Who can you cry to? Isn't it stupid to give your private key to a scammer who just got out of prison?
Secondly, don't use hot wallets. There may be viruses in those messy apps and public networks that will steal your private keys.
The private key should be stored cold, that is, don't put it online, such as WeChat collections, WPS, QQ albums, etc. It's best to hand over three copies and put them in a safe place.
I personally suggest that assets be stored in three wallets, so that even if one is stolen, there are still two.
Cold wallets can be made with a separate Apple phone.
The most important thing is to take action! Don't think that cold wallets will be automatically generated after reading my article. That's impossible.
Don't wait until the disaster strikes you to realize how painful it is.
As someone who has stepped into the pit, I know the feeling of powerlessness.
I hope everyone can take action to protect their assets and not let this kind of unprovoked disaster happen again.
