1. ‎ Secure wallet management: I go advise all investors to use a good and reliable wallets to safeguard their digital assets. I even prefer hardware wallets as a plus, because e go help to keep your private keys offline. That's why I dey advise us to protect our seeds phrase very well against scammers.

Using hardware wallet is good, it keeps our Bitcoin safer than using any wallet online, but mind you, the hardware wallet is not responsible to help you keep your seed phrase offline as you said; it’s your responsibility as the wallet owner to safeguard your seed phrase. Even if you are using a hardware wallet and carelessly save your backup online or allow others to have access to it, you have lost your Bitcoin.

2. ‎Passwords must be strong:
‎If u dey use week password way be say person go fit easily guest, e no really Sharp, try to use strong passwords way u fit remember, e go help you prevent unauthorized access to your cryptocurrency accounts.
‎

Talking about string passwords, it is good for your crypto accounts because I am sure you are making reference to centralized accounts; it is advisable to use 2FA for more security. This can be applicable if you wants to trade and must use centralized exchange, but if you are not willing to trade, DEXs are there to help you even if you will need to buy Bitcoin that you will send to your wallets.

5. ‎ Always monitor:  if u dey review your account details always, by checking all the records and transactions, it will help you identify any suspicious activities.
 

Checking transactions? I think of you decide to invest and hold your Bitcoin in a secured wallet that you have your private keys or seed phrase in your possession, you don’t need regular checking. You can have a watch only wallet to be monitoring, but always going through your private keys to check your wallet is stressful and can be emotional especially if you see the market going down; it is better to invest and hope for long.

Na the first thing you suppose learn before you start investment, no be the amount wey you invest matter but how you take protect your investment from any form of fraud na him matter pass.

You have absolutely said it well. There is no point in building a massive Bitcoin portfolio if you leave the front door wide open for hackers to steal it. Before profit, security must surely come first.

Adding to VivaMan point about hardware wallet, buying of the device it absolutely a step one only.how you handle your seed phrase is the most important rule. In no case should you save it on phone or email, dont take a picture of it and in no case should you back it up witj your iCloud or Google Drive. Keep it completely offline. A physical paper or even stamp on a metal and even  The $5 DIY Seed Phrase Backup (The Steel Washer Method)

Also regarding risk management just avoiding of scammers does not nea protecting your investment. It also means from your emotion how you protect your portfolio. In situation where you invest the money you will be need food or rent you end up panicking to sell when market drops. Your true discretionary income should be what you use so you can sleep peacefully no matter what the market is saying.

We dey see as many of the said hardware wallet, way supposed dey most secured done already dey give people problem. You no fit imagine how many people lifesavings go don lost for the hardware wallet and some sef go don give up.

The only correct way to dey safe na to do watin good and no put trust for one wallet at all.

 Ee go better say you put your money for at least two different wallet just in case something happens to the other one, you go still see one take hold body.

[Merit.s]

Make we just pray make we no involve for any form of wallet compromise from hackers because your own wallet wey you think say dey safe fit still dey vulnerable to hackers. E go good to try use electrum cold storage if you get any old laptop wey dey work because that one dey more safer since, na you dey do the set up yourself. Nobody get access to implant any esim for your back.

[Dreadboost]

No be say ah no value all the security tip you done mention but if ah they honest with you the security tips na just weting we need to read and practice. The most important form of security na the one we personally suppose dey do. No be the technical security practice. Many people they make those little mistakes if they get small bitcoin for their wallet.

D oda day na so one guy dey flaunt him crypto wallet make people see say e get coin for school. E con reach one time e use him mouth sef they tell people how many coins e get and if na bad people dey around am na to just steal him phone, access the wallet, then take everything.

What you said is true. I have seen many stories online where people lost their life savings because of one small mistake with hardware wallet, either them but fake or them lost your seed phrase or device spoil . Some people don even give up completely.

Na why believe say make person no put hope for one Wallet.

[Donk1]

Well the crypto space is very risky, and anyone coming in must first of all be aware of that because I believe everything comes with a risk. The major risks in this space are yourself, scheme associations which are scammers and hackers, influencers, and fake news. Under these things we have several ,let me use the word schemes techniques, and issues one must understand..Instead of trying to start reading and learning every single thing which isn't bad if you have the time still, you can learn to know when something is too good to be true which brings us down to personal awareness. That said our security is our responsibility. Both wallets, seed phrases, and so on, they are essential things that shouldn't be taken lightly in this space. That's all.....

Na the truth you just talk like this sir, because person fit actually Dey very careful with him wallet security make loop hole or some vulnerability they the device it self, like wetin happen with coldcard few months ago that fault no come from user actually Na from the comps it self. Na why I also agree with you point wey talk say make person just build him own cold storage system with phone or laptop we you no dey use. Na to just disconnect the Bluetooth and WiFi of those devices and use am create your own personal cold storage hardware wallet.

[Audrey Simmons]

lieve say make person no put hope for one Wallet.

What you mean is to split your Bitcoin into different addresses and wallets. Nobody knows where or when the next hack will come from, and who will be the victims of the hack, we need to take securing our Bitcoin seriously before, as we never know if it will happen. It will help us avoid completely losing our Bitcoin under any circumstance, if there is another hack affecting more holders.

Anything you suppose to do, try do am to protect everything you own, once the money leave your wallet, na matter of bye and forgotten.

Omo investment strategies for Bitcoin go always start with personal research, this being that during your personal research you will find yourself exposed to several opportunities that exist with the ecosystem and not just that, during your personal research, you will find your "Why" which is very crucial if you want to actually hit any goal you set for yourself along the line.
When you're done with personal research, even then you would know before you starting buying and investing, you must ensure you have a stable source of income that you can dedicate to reaching your own goal. You know how much you get, and still you will know how to split it either weekly or monthly or however you feel is just for you, the reason why everything sounds personal is because it has to. You should not be investing because you saw your friend put in this much or because you read it somewhere, anything you do, you must first ensure you are doing because it connects to the target you set, oherwise you can just be wasting your time.

Before investing in Bitcoin, you must manage a secure wallet so that your money is safe. We can constantly see that there are many people who buy Bitcoin from the exchange and later keep their Bitcoins there, which is very risky. In that case, it is very important to choose a good reliable wallet and then save the backup key of that wallet in a safe place. If there is no secure wallet, then investing in Bitcoin and keeping it for a long time can be a challenge because nowadays hackers can hack it at different stages. Therefore, the most important thing besides investing in Bitcoin is to know the wallet-related issues well and then choose a good wallet and deposit the Bitcoins there. Every investor should invest in Bitcoin and store them in a good quality wallet and keep them for a long time.

It is expected that we take the security of our investment with absolute importance because, our investment depends surely on the type of safety measures that we have taken, in making sure that we protect our invest. We should know that Bitcoin investment has moved beyond just putting money. We are to take wallet's security seriously because our investment depends largely on the type of wallet that we are using to invest. There are different types of wallet's that exists but it's expected that we only use a hard Ware wallet that is air gaped, which can be saved offline as such wallet are more reliable when compared to others.

[Coyster]

Bro, this stuff has been discussed about a million times already in this forum, both in this local board and in the general sections of the forum. TBH, there is really no need to start a new thread about basic stuff like this that everybody alread knows.

‎try to use strong passwords way u fit remember, e go help you prevent unauthorized access to your cryptocurrency accounts.

If you have a password that you can remember, then i am almost certain that it is a weak password. A strong password is a mix of upper case, lower case, special symbols, numbers and should be at least 12 characters in total, you are definitely going to have a hard time remembering that. What you should do is create unique and strong passwords across all your accounts and back them up.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

Hardware wallet is good to use but you have to be careful when buying it, do not buy from a third party, only buy from the direct source, else you might buy a wallet that has been compromised. It is not only hardware wallet that can keep your seed phrase offline, I don't agree with your statement as regards to that,  you can as well install and run a wallet on a phone or laptop that is disconnected from the internet (air gap) and after you have created your address, you can backup the seed phrase offline and then remove it from that device. Those people that keeps their seed backup online are people that probably do not really know how to keep it offline or they don't care much about their security. Learning about scam awareness will also make the individual to be self aware and not fall victims to some scams.

[ZeroVinsonN]

All this one na big talk, everything carry small risk join body, na for you to decide which risk way you fit take and which risk way you no fit take, na why some people still dey use centralized wallet because even when they know say their bitcoin no go dey their hand them still trust make another person hold am for them then for them to hold am themselves. Plenty people way go hear say this kind people dey go talk say them no sabi wetin them dey do but the truth be say no be wetin go work for you to work for another person, for u na to use different wallet because the best plan, another person go tell u say na only one wallet them fit trust, other people go talk other things too, na so life just be.

I would like to put more stress on the security of our wallets because this is the most sensitive aspect that scammers target; all they want is to ensure that you create a vulnerability by making a silly mistake, and they will use that as an advantage against you to launch their attack. Let's keep in mind to learn more about the security measures and maintain privacy so as not to contribute our own assets to fraudsters.

Alternatively, people fit use good open-source non-custodial wallets like Electrum for dia old PCs as cold storage and make the computer air-gapped. Dat way de keys no go leave de computer as no wireless or wired connection go make an interact with external connections.

2. ‎Passwords must be strong:

Na CEX dey get accounts, and no be self-custody. In self-custody we dey use wallets and you must ensure you write down seed phrases securely offline. E dey better to write down your wallet password offline, you no fit rely only on your brain, if you make mistake forget your password, your crypto don go be dat.
