Title: Few tips to better secure your ETH assets
Post by: serizawax on March 02, 2018, 12:10:11 AM
Here are my little tips for securing Ethereum wallets:

1. If you have MyEtherWallet wallet (or any other) you are advised to save your password / private code / JSON or the other on google drive (I suggest google drive)

2. Do not just save important data wallet in PC Hardisk, SD Card or other, because there are many possibilities that will cause your data lost, such as formatted, hard drive damaged and could be stolen others.

3. To avoid hacking, then I suggest you to create 3 ETH wallets that each have different functions.

-Wallet 1 = as storage and disbursement only. (with notes, transaction activity only takes place on one site only).

-Wallet 2 = as the receiver, so if you will convert the token to ETH, then use this wallet, after which you move again to wallet 1.

-Wallet 3 = to be used as payment for buy and sale.

Maybe the tips above are quite complicated, but I guarantee your assets will be safer. Where and whenever we should always be vigilant.

Hopefully my tips above can help you. Thank You

If someday the hacker can get your gmail login, then your wallet will get stolen ::)

2. Do not just save important data wallet in PC Hardisk, SD Card or other, because there are many possibilities that will cause your data lost, such as formatted, hard drive damaged and could be stolen others.
Write or printing private key will be usefull

Good advice but 1 wallet is enough if you know how to secure it. Such as using difficult password and if you use myetherwallet then better import it to offline wallet.

How we know hardware wallets also can be hacked.
Dont store your keys in place, wich can be online, only offline storage gurantee secure

No it is not advisable to store our private key digitally in particular the online drives like google drive because it is very easy to hack a Gmail than your computer. ;D
You can store them digitally in offline drives like harddrives or in some other equipment.

(I suggest google drive)
I wouldn't save anything on a google drive. This is very risky, remember that in cyber space there's nothing secured so anything can be penetrated and gain access if you are targeted.  :-\
3. Store your 24-word seed non-digitally
I've learned that the old methods that were upgraded by the technology can be a good solution and alternative to any problem. And writing on a piece of paper with those seeds will never get old and its even more secured of putting it on a notepad or google spreadsheet.
