    Use a hardware wallet. Nothing thats internet connected (from exchanges to wallets like metamask etc) is safe. Trezor is my choice, other cheaper options also available. Its worth it. Dont wait to protect your funds which is the most fundamental step

      hardware wallets are true cold storage wallets only if we use the QR code option.

      what are you even talking about?? CoinGecko candies are worthless. they can't be traded or sold or even
      *given away* and they invite us to spend them on worthless cr@p - including outdated crypto info books - and/or on discounts we can easily get elsewhere.🙄

      @@navushtanov True, that's why it's recommended to use a different browser, which is exclusive only for your wallets and trading accounts.
      Don't use the same browser for daily browsing and wallets use.
      Also, better to have a second laptop for software wallets only (like Metamask, trust wallet, Binance wallet)..

      which is why to never reveal it to others. use 1 specific browser only for dealing with crypto only. or an entirety separate device.but at the same me of the day making use true cold storage solutions are a must because the internet is inherently insecure.

      @joebrooks3872 Před 8 měsíci +2

      Did you use an email address in the first place? Answer is NO you did not use an email address, so if EVER you receive an email from Metamask, it is fake and NEVER reply. (That was also one of the tips in this very video!!!!) So going back to your question ask, Do I need to give you the answer. Also why did you lose your seed phrase? Again another tip in this video.
