One more recommendation is to make sure that your private key is saved locally. I prefer using keepass

Well your wallet is where you keep your coin safe and it always important to protect it
 One of the best way is to protect your private key never give it out to any one even if it's your mentor that is very important
 This is for new guys like me
Also be careful to the hackers. Hackers are everywhere roght now. They know that many people earning big money in digital currency, and if they know that they can enter to the site of different companies they'll do it just to sneak any amount that they can get. To have extra theif they will target the investors of the company which they will give false site, but the appearance is just the same of the safe site. Just getting all the information needed to transfer all your money. Be careful guys

A MERIT will be much appreciated thanks. Smiley

Yes indeed. Now it’s harder and harder to distinguish a true website from a fake one. The name may have a dot or a letter that is similar in spelling and that's it - you are trapped. Your passwords and private keys may be available to hackers at once moment. You also need to be careful with e-mails and links in them.
When you are storing all of your funds to the paper wallet and then you should be free from that problem. Those people are storing their altcoin in the online wallet that able to get this problem. As long as you never try to connect to something suspicious and i guess you will be fine. that's the only key.

indeed, all privacy such as private keys should be stored in a safe place and don't let other people know what your close friends are. You must be careful because your assets store well if you need passwords that are not easily known by others.

Yes you are right. This is the most important. Hide him and no one not to blow. It is also better to have another computer for cryptocurrency support. Which will be most protected from fraudsters.

I printed it out and put it in the closet then locked it. Hope there is no damage. Protecting keys from hackers is really a difficult thing

that is true and very important, keeping the private key of our wallet from being known by others. And message me, be more careful in browsing the internet, and open links that we don't know, because there are many fraudsters that end up endangering our privacy, including the private key of our wallet.

I always say that if you store or operate with more than 100$ in crypto it's better buy a hardware wallet. It costs around 100$ so in my opinion every crypto trader/investor/hodler should invest 100$ in the safety first.

There is no perfect way to store your cryptocurrencies. Hackers are getting sophisticated in unlocking private keys and I think every security method is susceptible to at least one attack method. Never disclosing your private keys to anyone, offline and online is always the first measure to secure your crypto. Then you can add additional protection so if one is breached there is another to counter any threats.

Safety in crypto space cannot be over emphasized. It is very important to secure your assets, nobody needs to tell you. Please for private keys, never backup using social media or email, use an offline backup. Use web3 browser extensions like metamask to access web wallets, do not input private key directly, to avoid phishing.

You have point on this mate but another thing if you want to keep your wallet really safe you should not trust in copy pasting. If you do, make sure not to copy the whole numbers, atleast copy your private key incompletely and type the missing one after pasting. Through this you can keep your wallet safe from hackers.
good advice. I think those people who use Private Key will help you feel more relaxed when you will try to open your wallet

There are too much of hacker or scammers here in crypto industry where they create some fake forms, fake referral links, or even fake exchange's sites, just to get the private keys of the users or people who signed in their wallet/s on those fake sites. It is better to check first the URL , if it is secure before proceeding in.

Safe your private key in an offline file and have a printed copy of it.

This is understandable, but if such a case happens when a hacker hacks the server and gets access to your wallet? the case has already been and no one is immune from this, so besides the copy of the keys, you also need to follow the news about what happens to the wallet itself.

Any online wallet is prone to hacks so if you want the safest, get yourself a hardwallet. Though when it comes to private keys, you also have to be careful in handling your hardwallet keys. It'll be harder to retrieve your coins in a hard wallet if you lost your keys there.

yes of course our wallets must be properly guarded and not do stupid things by giving private keys to others, whatever it is, never send private keys to anyone if your pocket doesn't want to be empty. carefully save assets because all controls are in your own hands
