I almost sent the coins to the wrong address just now, I copied the last four digits without double-checking and clicked confirm, my palms started sweating... Luckily, the hardware wallet pop-up made me stop. To be honest, I’m now a bit sensitive about "convenience," after seeing too many thefts through cross-chain bridges, I don’t want to rely on luck for security.
If the amount isn’t large, the phone + social recovery setup is quite hassle-free, and losing the device wouldn’t cause a complete meltdown; but once the assets grow, I still prefer hardware wallets, at least every button press feels like I’m confessing to myself: is this really going out? Multi-signature is more suitable for accounts with “many people/many transactions,” or if you tend to slip up easily, add a second key as a brake. Recently, everyone’s been waiting for confirmation because of the oracle price fluctuations, I’ve learned my lesson too—taking it slow isn’t a big deal, one mistake is painful enough. That’s all for now.
