Safety Basics

Two major security rules:

  • Zero trust. To make it simple, stay skeptical, and always stay so.

  • Continuous validation. In order to trust something, you have to validate what you doubt, and make validating a habit.

Security principles:

  • For all the knowledge from the Internet, refer to at least two sources, corroborate each other, and always stay skeptical.

  • Segregate. Don't put all the eggs in one basket.

  • For wallets with important assets, don't do unnecessary updates.

  • What you see is what you sign. You need to be aware of what you are signing, and of the expected result after the signed transaction is sent out. Don't do things that will make you regret afterwards.

  • Pay attention to system security updates. Apply them as soon as they are available.

  • Don't download & install programs recklessly can actually prevent most risks.
