it is already was discussed a hundred thousand times at this forum that on exchanges it is worth storing only the money that you trade. the remaining money is best transferred to a cold wallet

There are lots of people who shouted for help every time i open the forum lots of them are scammed, lost a key for their wallets and more, here are some tips that you can do to avoid this kind of incidents 1. Keep your keys for wallets in a secure place where you can easily access but others can't This is the number one rule of thumb for me keep it in a safe place that accessible by you but not to other people 2. Never share your passwords to anyone Remember even the closes person to you can turn you down sometimes, and hit you really hard when you don't expect its okay to trust people around you but there should be a distance or a position where in okay you can't know everything about me its too personal. 3. If you keep your keys codes etc in your computer make sure you always have a backup a clone for the drive to be safe. This is the last one for me but this should be at first procedure you should do first always keep your backup because we all know you don't know when your computer encounter a problem specially windows , which a lot of users are using , there you go this are some simple steps that can be done i hope this can help you keep you codes and keys safe every time
Everything goes down to educating yourself first, these are good compilations, there are still many other ways to safeguard your password and private keys, but it's not only about your token but protecting yourself from divulging on how large and how many tokens you are holding, this is the best way to keep your token avoid boasting tokens that you're holding and how large profit did you made, this will put you in danger and your family.

They tend to store their funds in an exchange wallet which is not advisable. Instead of storing it in a wallet or in a hardware wallet which is much safer, they choose to store it somewhere that is too risky. Investment should not be treated the same as how we hold our trading altcoins.

I have experience that I feel I have kept all the private key assets that I use in a safe place, but when I was traveling suddenly my assets in one of my wallets in myetherwallet lost, which I remembered that I only ever did log in at one of the exchange places that log in using a private key, my mistake is to directly use the wallet with the assets that I have without making another new wallet for the transaction.
I also do not use any separate wallet only for transactions. Do you think this is a safer way to store your money? I don’t understand how this can help you.

There are lots of techniques you should consider to protect your own tokens on threats that might happen. First, you should protect the private keys that is the most important thing for you to access the wallet you are using. Second is that you should be aware on the website you are using because there are lots of website that is created to hack personal accounts/wallet, so be aware of that. Third is that you should have an storage in which you are the only one who knows the important data of your wallet or account. We should protect all that is important to us for us to earn and be successful, so never share it to anyone even if it is your best friend or what.

so far I think the safest is in the hardware wallet, it's quite simple and only prepares about $ 50 to buy at an online store. that's my way that is quite easy in saying, just enough to prepare a little money to secure all the assets that I hold. to minimize unwanted events, I keep my hardware wallet in a safe.

Buying a wallet like nano and trezor is better done if most of our assets use the ERC-20 platform because the security has been very guaranteed for me during using it 2 years. previously only used myetherwallet and my wallet was hacked. frustrating me because all my assets were stolen by them

I protect my tokens or wallets by avoiding phishing, you can do this by always checking the URL of the website before entering any sensitive details like private keys or if your tokens are stored on eth network always use metamask for PC and Trust wallet for android. Avoid clicking suspicious links on emails too. Still, the safest way is to have a hardware wallet.
Phishing is a method that is often used by hackers to steal our coins on the wall. To avoid this, I think we should be wary of emails sent by others to our emails and not clicking on suspicious links. In addition, always storing and not sharing private keys with other parties is a way to secure our wallet from hackers

by investing in crypto we will definitely have experience and one of them is the problem of security of our assets I personally have also lost my tokens but with that we will be more vigilant and will not repeat the mistakes we make in investing learning from mistakes to get best experience going forward

phishing scams are the most famous way where newbies lost most of their coins and tokens, i do not expect anyone to fall victim for scammers asking people for private keys because its called private and not to be shared with anyone

I don't trust the person who sent the email and must fill out the form, and one of the conditions in that form is to enter privatekey. Always bookmark websites that i trust to avoid phishing and always be careful when you want to input your privatekey or seed

I agree with you. I also like that, do not share private keys to anyone, do not carelessly access with private keys, backup wallet and avoid phishing. sometimes wallets are hacked because they are not careful about phishing websites

If you are holding a significant amount of cryptocurrencies, the best option for you is storing it in a hardware wallet. It is currently the safest option for storing crypto. In case you just have 100$ in ETH, it is okay to keep it in Metamask.

Better doing this than regret once you fall into scam sites. Keeping your assets always needs to work with every statistic that can possibly harmed your tokens. If you feel any doubts with things that you need to process online best not to do anything. Keeping being safe instead of risking the possibilities of getting harmed. Be selective and if you have enough money and you store high value tokens, having a hardware wallet is very needed to lessen the risk.

security must be done when accessing the wallet and I believe that, you have provided references by bookmarking because sometimes mistakes when accessing the wallet are not checking the website. and the last way for security is to back up data when needed

Agree with what you have said about how to secure tokens. besides what you said there must be a very priority so as not to be fooled so that the tokens turn to someone else. - Don't open a link from an email without you knowing whether the email is safe and you know it. - if possible what we often open for bookmarks so as not to open from google, because many addresses are almost the same to deceive. - do not forget to use anti-virus that can be trusted and quality.

I do not know how many times I have read in the forum about a member being hacked and when he reveals the amount of money that he lost and how he was storing such a huge amount of money in an online wallet the first thing I think is why he did not bought a hardware wallet, hardware wallets are relatively inexpensive and once you got your money in one you know it is safe and there is now way for hackers to get to your funds no matter what they do.
