For a long time now I Dom dey hear many many suggestions on how to safe guard our seed phrase as we all know say e dey very important and losing urs could cause a very big trouble to u. Many people Dom tell us say make we save am for Google, many say make we write am for paper and so on infact if that topic come again u go still see many suggestions on how to keep ur seed phrase safe but me now I Dom think many ways come reach the final level of my calculations with a result wey me I think say dey safe for me.

Since it is not safe to write it in a paper and still save it in the internet I think it is advice able to write it as a caption on photos maybe one for a photo and also post it Incase u go to a place you can search for those photos quick and remember them nobody would know what they are
One photo one word that's the pattern

No matter how we talk about this topic everybody will come with their own idea because no be waiting you like another person like, your idea now is to write it and caption it as a photo but some people go like to save it in a Google while some people will like to write it in a paper but for me the paper own is better, writing your seed phrase in a paper is the best idea for me because if you write it in a paper you can find somewhere and keep it for many years without no one know or touch it, I know a paper can lost but what if you write it on a paper and you put it inside a file where those your details like school certificate and other things dey don't you think it will be safe there.

The reason why me I think say the idea make sense to make because the file that I am using about many year's with my materials now is still with me and nothing happen to it, all my details are complete and no one touch it, so if I write my seed phrase in a paper and put it without not telling anyone it will be there and I can get it any time I need it, your own idea make sense too but you know say everybody go get he own pattern of keeping his property.

No do pass yourself sae your store up your seed phrase in a unique way than the normal way wey we all know as writing it on a piece of paper and keeping it safe.

Never has it been made known that having your seed phrase as a caption on a photo and upload on social media can be one of the safest ways to store up seed phrase. No one should ever think of that because social media, you think it is safe for storing up your seed phrase, is on the public layout that anyone can have what is posted there, scrutinized to know the exact meaning of what is written and posted there.

Don't think that you can't find people who are smart enough in crypto on social platforms to disclose what is written on that photo to be a seed phrase. So, scrap those ideas of yours to avoid losing your funds. It's only unintelligent people who don't know what it is like to keep their seed phrase safe will think of such an idea.

There's no just way we can boycott the options of either saving the seed phrases online or offline.
Believing we've got this discussion several times and when arises again, we expects a unique terminology on how we can do have these seed phrases safe from scammers and where it can't be effected by disasters, having it a caption on photos as suggested is quite a unique one but perhaps we can still get lost or hacked of the media profile that it's stored even though the hacker maybe not be able to understand what it's. But the truth is that the picture can still be whipped off by the hacker. Scammers has found media profiles useful to themselves to leverage their victims on disguise. So at times we might be hunted just to use our profiles as a scamming tool.
Besides the photo being assumed to be on hardware can also befall to destruction in time of disasters.
But then, having our seed phrases on captions is a good idea.

I think by now, with the knowledge and experience you have in cryptocurrency and its safe practices, you should be able on your own to know the best strategy that would help you safely guard your seed phrases.
Although I know everyone has their best options to pick from, the thing to note is how easy it is to access, how well you understand what you are doing and those who were in proximity when you decided upon such a strategy. In the end it would be left for you to decipher what you saved for yourself.

Well this your strategy fit work for you but I no still see am as a safe way too, because if you snap am come caption them with each of the seed prase come post am for Facebook person come hack your Facebook come delete all those pix, that mean say you don lose acces to your wallet. One of the best way I come across for forum on how to keep your Seed phrase safe na to put your seed for titanium plate or stainless plate wey be say E no fit destroy by fire or flood then you fit hide am for any secret place without minding wether water or fire go toch am. Na the thread be this Is it swell to stamp bitcoin seed Phrase on Titanium Plates?

What are you guys really saying about this, you shouldn't even give room for discussion on saving your mnemonic seed beign saved online talk more of discussing different form of which it can be saved on the internet.
Keep your mnemonic seed as cold as possible don't let it have any form of hot storage, some even go deeper encrypting it even in it's cold form but I don't think that's really a good idea because some my later forget the private key they used for the encryption and maybe the encryption process but what really matters is keeping your seed phrase code.
There're no perfect of way of storing it though even in its cold form all you have to do is think of different possibilities before choosing a right storage method.

Since it is not safe to write it in a paper ...

Your seed phrase can be safe on paper if that paper is kept properly. There have been people who have kept their seed phrase on paper for a couple of years, and they have been safe because they were not careless with it. Sometimes it is not the security method that you employ to keep your seed phrase safe that makes it safe, but you that practice the safety measures. If you are very conscious about your security, using something like a piece of paper will even be safer than for someone who uses a more sophisticated method but is very unconcerned about security and safety tips.

This is a very brilliant idea , it looks very usual that people will not understand the meaning behind it but the danger lays in id your social media account with which you posted that get hacked, then you may almost never be able to recover that again, that which I have seen on the Bitcoin board mostly has been the engraving on a plate and keeping the plate in a very safe place mostly for cold wallets.

One thing be say e go hard to see any style wey no get one fault, so wetin we go fit do be say na to find d one wey be say d fault na wetin we fit manage no mata d situation on ground, if e be say no be wetin go too affect us like dat den we go mange am. So if you know say you write am somewhere or for multiple places wey Incase one loss u fit check d oda, na pattern wey go work for u den run am abi na to put am for ur Google cloud make u use 2FA lock am, just find wetin dey applicable, safe, and easy to access for u den run am but always make sure e safe like say ur life dey inside.

This topic cannot be overemphasized, a lot of people that are new to crypto don't take it seriously and they end up losing their funds as a result of their carelessness. You must understand that your seed phrase is a way of encrypting and securing your wallet, it's better to use an exchange if you know you are the careless type. you can write it down in a jotter, you can save it in your phone as a note, it's not advisable to screenshot because it goes straight to your gallery, everyone can have access to it when they go through your images. These are basic things to take note of

Make nobody deceive you oo. Them no dey save seed phrase online either for google account or iCloud. No one for inside dey secure. This idea way you suggest na new concept and e no too bad. The problem be say wetin go happen when you lose your social media account. No forget say na everyday these platforms dey bring new policies and community guidelines, once you marsh line them don lock your account.

The surest way to store your seed phrase na to write am for paper, then get multiple backup for different locations.

Offline storage of seed phrase and private keys are the best of storage, the material used to store it is the most important thing. Some people suggest the paper although it is prone to torn or damages when been faced with some kind of disasters like fire and flood or could even get damaged over a period of time, that’s why most people are of the opinion that to conquer this situation one need to actually write on a durable material that can withstand any conditions or disaster and that’s why stainless steel is actually advised.

Your idea of storing them on a photos aren’t different with storing on paper in terms of durability, it only edges writing paper small. But the second idea of writing them on separate photo each a word is very bad method of storing to me, you can easily lose some of these words and to recover them is hard, you can also switch their positions except you each write them with their position

You should choose a separate safe place to keep your seed phrase and preferably write it down on paper or something engraved so that it does not get lost easily. Make sure that it is secured in different places. It is often observed that pen ink written on paper after a particular period of time gradually decreases its expire and may not be readable.
Engraved on a sheet of steel or iron, it is much less likely to be destroyed easily by fire or water. Besides, the purpose of keeping in different places is that if the phrase in one place is lost for some reason, its recovery must be in an alternate place. Many people think it is reasonable to keep it in google drive or mail but I would say you should definitely not keep your valuable seed phrase in any online based platform as it can be hacked anytime.

Ehehehe... Until the social media platform you save those picture probably crash down or got a bug/malware issue wey make them re-up date am wey come lead to many users losing some of their files and data them upload to their account , nah there you go understand say writing ur seed phrase in paper with indelible ink and hiding them in different safe physical locations (like three different places wey far from each other) is safer than having to put ur seeds online in any format. Anything fit happen to this social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram etc, anytime. Uncertainty no be person friend oh!

Op you try shaa for your thoughts as inno really bad but it's not safe either. At least the paper pattern dey relatively safer. Or you fit use the metal pattern to take craft ur seeds each, at least that one even flood or fire no go fit damage am.

You may think of the method as a very good option to go for when other ones seems vulnerable to you. You have just looked at the advantages part of it and never inquire more about the disadvantages. You are trying to run away from not saving the seed phrase in the internet but you are as well making a post of the picture for reference purpose. People are wiser and smart than you can think of, seeing pictures with word phrase on them will immediately call for attention and since the crypto space is now getting wider, you may agree with me that someone will be able to crack it. I don’t see this as a viable option. Even if you keep them, natural disasters do happen and many unforeseen circumstances that can make you lose them. Get a safe for this for can resist any form of disaster and put the the seed phrase down on a plate that is not corrosive. Something like a metal backup tool will really help to keep it safer.

Ahh mate, that's the worst idea I've heard about saving seedphrase since joining this forum.. don't take it as a rude reply though but that's the truth and I love people whom are ready to learn. You made a suggestion which you think might be good for you but then, try to consider it thoroughly. Saving your seed phrase on the internet and not talk more of on a photo. We literally know how these pictures can be viewed by anyone. The percentage of people who will see a seedphrase and not recognize it is about 25% out of 100. You will only be giving them your keys. Just follow the already old practice and avoid anything that would jeopardize the safety of your funds.

Everybody will give you different answers about this because the method you will use to safe guard your seed phrase may not be the same as the way I will keep my own safe, so the main thing here is we should make sure our seed phrases are in a safe place, regardless of the condition, but giving out a method won’t help, but rather advise and tell people how to do it.

I think that will be better. Although many people have seen or heard that they safe guard their seed phrase is that they wrote it on paper and hide it somewhere, I'm surprised that you said someone told you this is not a good method. Goggle is not advisable because the phone to get stolen or get lost.

On photo as caption? Think about this again, bro. This won’t be safe. You may think nobody will know that you are using your seed phrase as a caption, right, but deep down there are many people who are very intelligent and gurus in this space, so don’t try that shit. You said it will not be safe in internet posting your picture is that not another exposure to online?

Our seed phrase na very important thing, and na something wey we suppose properly secure, because if anybody fit get access to am, then everything wey Dey d wallet don go be that, na why nobody Dey carry am play be that. Most people wey really sabi about wallet security no go ever advice anybody make dem save their seed phrase for google, because dem know the implication, Dey no go encourage anybody make dem safe their seed phrase for anywhere wey internet connection Dey, because where you keep am fit Dey compromise at anytime, and people go get access to am.

Wetin make people dey discourage make we Dey write our seed phrase for paper na because anything fit happen to d paper anytime and e go destroy, we sabi d way e Dey easy to destroy paper now, even if na small water touch am, problem don Dey be that, and even insects or other things self fit destroy paper. So Wetin I Dey always recommend be say make we find iron steel, make we carve am for d body, then make we go hide am, but make we make sure say no be only one we get, back up suppose Dey and no be the same location e suppose Dey.

Well the matter to keep your seed phrase sef no be today discussion infact they are millions of ways in which this can done and for me it depends on the one wey dey suitable for you because base on your own perceptions some people go still save their phrases online like for google and other means which to a very high probability is very risky as the internet can be accessed and data stolen which renders that method vulnerable so best advice is to just choose any pattern wey involves offline keeping of it.

No one is praying for a disaster that will happen which will make him not having access to his seed phrase and that is why it is better that you writw it down on a pieces of paper with three duplicates and keep them very far from each other with someone that you trust. You can also write it on steel plate to prevent it from fire and water. Storing it on your facebook pictures without backups can still lead to you losing your seed phrase if the picture was deleted mistakenly. No matter where you think is safe for you to store your seed phrase akways have the duplicates. Also one should be careful of how he is storing his seed phrase so that you don't end up exposing it because of over security.
