Physical Security isn’t just luxury it’s a necessity for bit-coiner’s

[God Tim]

Well not having to have some much information about the Physical security for Bitcoin holders but I just through to share some little information on the transitioned from a niche concern to an absolute necessity,

driven by a 169% increase in reported physical attacks on crypto holders in the first half of 2025 alone. Because blockchain transactions are irreversible, criminals are increasingly shifting from complex digital hacks to "meatspace" threats—such as $5 wrench attacks, home invasions, and kidnappings—to coerce victims into transferring assets under duress.

Like I will say “ NO BITCOIN IS WORTH LIVING THIS LIFE FOR
physical safety is paramount. Do not resist if it increases the risk of violence, as the primary goal is to protect yourself and your family.

I think it won't be a wrong decision if you decide to make yourself and your bitcoin investment secret, your points here are very much important to note as a Bitcoin investor. I once read a post in this Bitcoin forum where a student was murdered just because he exposed his bitcoin portfolio to his friend and classmate. It is necessary as bitcoin enthusiast and investors to remain conserved as not to expose ourselves to those criminals looking for a way of steeling our investment.

While we do our best not to expose ourselves to these physical criminals, is also necessary we protect our Bitcoin from hackers online and to do this , as a Bitcoin investor ensure your bitcoin is stored in a private wallet where the seed phrase is only known by you. Do not expose your seed phrase to any one to enhance the safety of your bitcoin investment.

I think it is better not to advertise the fact that you have Bitcoins. For me, this is not just paranoid caution.
Even if you have protected yourself from physical threats, there is still an online world, and there are many people who want to get your bitcoins. Hackers never sleep, so you have to be vigilant.
You can keep your bitcoins in a hardware wallet, but you still need to stay calm so as not to cause envy and curiosity of people who might want to take them away from you. The main rule: your phrase should be known only to you. Not to friends, family, anyone. Even if you are begged to give it, do not give up. This is essentially the key to your savings, and if it falls into someone else’s hands, it could end very badly.
