Threats & mindset
Attacks often target people, not math. Slow down, verify, and keep recovery options ready.
Phishing
- Never share seed phrases, screenshots, or private keys.
- Bookmark official links; beware of lookalike domains.
Device hygiene
- Keep OS and wallets updated. Remove unknown extensions.
- Use device PIN/biometrics and full‑disk encryption.
Confirmations
Wait multiple blocks before treating a payment as final, especially for large amounts.
Red‑flag checklist
- “Support” asks for your seed – scam.
- Unsolicited links or files – avoid.
- Urgent time pressure – step back and verify.
