Recently, everyone has been talking about staking unlocks and token unlock calendars, and I understand the anxiety and selling pressure... But honestly, for someone like me who "checks the address three times before transferring," it's more practical to first understand wallet security. A small amount (for daily use, and if lost, it won't keep me awake) hot wallet is enough, with permissions not granted randomly; once assets reach a certain size, I prefer hardware wallets, at least the private keys are not on connected devices. Going further up, even holding a hardware wallet alone can be risky due to slips or accidents, so multi-signature: it's more troublesome, but it can break down "one mistake and everything's gone" into multiple confirmations. Social recovery I think is suitable for those afraid of losing their seed phrase, but you need to carefully choose contacts and diversify, or else you're just changing the risk form. Anyway, my standard is simple: make any transfer "impossible to do quickly," the slower, the more secure.
