The people I know who've never been scammed in crypto all pretty much have these habits: 1. They use a separate laptop or phone to interact with crypto sites 2. They don't keep all their tokens in one wallet (or on multiple wallets with the same seedphrase) 3. They have stronger security for their most valuable wallets than their day to day trading wallets Often, that's using hardware wallets or it's multisig/MPC wallets 4. They bookmark their favorite crypto sites instead of relying on Google to find them 5. They never trust an email or DM. They go directly to the source when they need to do something, not externally presented links 6. They revoke their approvals on EVM chains using tools like Revoke Cash or Etherscan 6. They do their own research on protocols and don't blindly deposit funds into untested protocols 7. They double check the addresses they send to, and don't copy/paste wallet addresses from Blockscanners FINALLY, 8. they take their time when transacting and do it when they're at their best. They don't rush, or transact while drinking, or under the influence of drugs or when they're tired. Staying safe in crypto doesn't have to be complicated. You just have to be consistent and do what works.

Great advice for setting up email + phone numbers This helps a ton in the world of data breaches

Many hardware wallet companies choose to use their competitors failures as marketing moments Almost every major HW wallet has done it. Here’s the thing: security is a team sport. When you see a member of your team make a mistake, you learn from it. Not try and steal their playing time. There’s actually 0 upside in saying “this will never happen to us” because it can and will. This is not just a Keystone issue, I see security orgs and pros point fingers every time something goes wrong To my security audience - when you see an incident don’t jump in with snide comments or remarks Ask yourself if the same thing could happen to you and then go fix it (because it’s almost always yes) This is a new world and we all need to level up our game

Pudgy Penguins. That is all.

If these are your Penguins, go claim them (and think about tipping Quit at the same time)
