Your seed phrase is your private keys—never store it online.



This isn't a suggestion, it's a rule. Cloud storage, email, messaging apps, screenshots on your phone—these are all attack vectors. The moment it touches the internet, it's at risk.

Why? Hackers don't need your wallet app to drain you. They just need those words. Twelve or 24 words is all it takes to gain complete control of your assets.

The only safe storage: write it down. Paper. Physical locations. Multiple copies if you want redundancy—one at home, one in a safe, one with a trusted person. Cold, offline, disconnected.

Yes, this seems old school. That's precisely why it works.

If you've already stored your seed phrase online anywhere, move your funds to a new wallet now. Don't wait. Not tomorrow—today.
