The year 2022 was rich in high-profile crypto fraud operations. Well-known companies were hit — Crypto.com lost more than $35 mln due to system hacking, IRA Financial Trust suffered more than $37 mln, stablecoin supplier Cashio lost $52 mln, Qubit Finance — $80 mln, Harmony — $100 mln, Axie Infinity’s Ronin Bridge a record $625 mln, and that is not all the victims, the list is much wider.This sad statistic shows that even crypto giants have a security gap, and they have a bigger one than us, ordinary mortals. Don’t think no one is interested in your digital bank (even if not that big). As the industry evolves with it, so does the scale of scams.In this article, we’ll tell you how to take simple steps to protect your capital from hackers and sleep well.<ol><li>Separate work and leisure by using two different browsers</li></ol>It seems to be simple and clear, but not everyone uses this rule, which, by the way, is useful not only in crypto&#x1f642; This trick multiplies your security level, but will also have a positive effect on your productivity.2. Don’t fall for phishing linksIf you google and just type in the name of a site, the first links in the search engine may be fraudulent. Always double-check the links with anti-phishing plugins, scam checkers and other tools. Better yet, keep the address in your bookmarks the first time you visit.3. NEVER open links in direct messages on Discord, Telegram, or other social mediaIn 99 cases out of 100, this is a fierce scam, which you should avoid.4. Save your seed phraseA seed phrase is a password of 12 words or more that is generated when you create a wallet. This password cannot be recovered in any way. Its loss means the loss of funds stored in the wallet, so you must keep an eye on the safety of the seed phrase. This means no screenshots, notes on your phone, or saves in your browser. Make a few copies of your password by writing it down on paper and putting it in a safe place. The main thing is not to forget its location&#x1f642; Even under your mattress will do — everyone does it this way, even crypto die-hards.5. Make test transactionsBefore sending large amounts of money, it’s better to sacrifice a small amount by making a test transfer. Once you are sure that the address is correct (check all the characters in the wallet address), feel free to make a bigger transaction6. Keep your PC secureIf you are an active Internet user or even a crypto fan, you urgently need a proper antivirus. And yes, don’t forget to update it.7. Disconnect your wallet more oftenKeep track of the sites to which your wallet is attached. If you don’t use them, disconnect your wallet just to be sure.United in safetySecurity is the guarantor of peace of mind in all areas of life, especially in finances. If you are planning to increase your digital capital, do not neglect these simple rules and remember — the safety of your money is in your hands only.Follow Cosmic FOMO social media and don’t miss interesting and important news!<a href="https://t.me/CosmicFOMO_Channel_en" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Telegram</a> | <a href="https://youtube.com/&#64;CosmicFOMO." rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">YouTube</a> | <a href="https://medium.com/&#64;CosmicFomo" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Medium</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/CosmicFomo" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Twitter</a>
