Security checklist
- Use authenticator-based 2FA instead of SMS when possible.
- Enable withdrawal whitelists and anti-phishing codes.
- Keep long-term holdings in self-custody and trading funds on exchanges.
- Use bookmarks for official sites instead of search ads.
Any page asking for a seed phrase or private key should be treated as malicious.
