Recently, I saw a debate in the group about whether hardware wallets are just a stupid tax… I just watch silently. To put it simply, it depends on the size of your assets: if you have small funds and just want convenience, don’t turn yourself into an operations manager; a hardware wallet is enough, and avoid basic pitfalls like taking photos of your seed phrase; if your money grows to the point where you can’t sleep peacefully, multi-signature is more like insurance for yourself, but the management costs really add up—who to choose as signers, what if the device is lost, think it through before proceeding. As for social recovery, I think it’s suitable for people who are afraid of forgetting or losing their keys, but only if you trust those gatekeepers… Anyway, I often change my avatar, and I’m most worried about leaving a backdoor on the chain if relationships change. Recently, the expectations for rate cuts fluctuate between hot and cold; risk assets rise and fall together with the market. The more this happens, the more I feel it’s not just about watching the floor price—first, get the key thing sorted out.
