Every post on this site covers one piece of the crypto security puzzle. This post puts them all together \u2014 a complete, practical checklist you can work through to know exactly where your security stands and what still needs attention.<\/p>\n
A reputable hardware wallet purchased directly from the manufacturer. A seed phrase written down \u2014 not photographed, not stored digitally. Authenticator app 2FA enabled on every exchange. No crypto held on exchanges beyond what you’re actively trading. A unique, strong password for every crypto-related account.<\/p>\n
Seed phrase transferred from paper to a stamped or engraved metal backup. At least two copies stored in different physical locations. Passphrase enabled on your hardware wallet, stored separately from the seed phrase. A record of which wallets you hold and where each backup is located.<\/p>\n
A plain-language document explaining your wallets and how to access them \u2014 kept separate from the seed phrase. A trusted person who knows where your backups are located. A letter to your heirs explaining what to do and in what order. Annual review of the above to reflect any changes.<\/p>\n
A hardware security key for high-value accounts. A passphrase-protected decoy wallet for plausible deniability. Consideration of a multi-signature setup for significant holdings. Consistent OPSEC: minimal public disclosure of your holdings.<\/p>\n
Go through this list and mark what you have in place. Most people start at Level 1 and stop \u2014 and that leaves real gaps. Security is not a product you buy once. It’s a practice you maintain.<\/p>\n
