The 10 Rules of Crypto
- Don't lose your wallet password
- Never invest more than you can afford to lose
- Don't tell strangers what exchanges you use
- Everyone is a hacker
- DON'T LOSE YOUR WALLET PASSWORD
- Use 2 step authentication, with an app, not text message
- Dont store long term coins on exchanges, trade only
- When in doubt; HODL
- Buy the dip
- Keep calm and don't panic sell
Great list, but I would add:
11 - If you don't use an air-gapped computer for your wallets then be damned sure your main computer you do wallet operations on does not have malware or spyware on it doing keystroke logging
12 - Encrypt your wallet passwords and remember the password, don't write it down
13 - Backup you encrypted wallet private keys religiously (even if you're not religious)
14 - Avoid online "lite" wallets - download the HTML and run it locally by opening the
index.html
