Are these Metamask security tips helpful to you? Let us know which wallet we should cover next!

[@jediknight2350]

no metamask is to insecure.

[@wilsonsmanz]

Does using a VPN help any?

[@balishdottie4349]

I was a victim of this hack too and lost about $105k. I was able to restore my assets with the help of a web3 analyst

[@balishdottie4349]

Bitech_gary He was really reliable and helpful

[@balishdottie4349]

On instagram. I was able to retrieve my assets after I had been trying for weeks

[@wojciechborowski8900]

Good and helpful material

[@navushtanov]

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

[@DiandraStarShine]

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

[@LuchadorMasque]

step 1. connect a hardware wallet.

[@JBOneil03]

Patiently waiting for an CG airdrop again using candies!

[@DiandraStarShine]

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 they can't be traded or sold or even *given away* and they invite us to spend them on worthless cr@p - including outdated crypto info books - and/or on discounts we can easily get elsewhere.🙄

[@chiimiplays]

Metamask is not safe anymore. After I deposit it will automatically be sent to an unknown address. Huhu

[@themorvy]

Don't forget that the seed phrase is stored on your browser and it could be recovered if you forgot either the password or the seedphrase.. Vault extraction and decryption...

[@navushtanov]

wait what? So it can be hacked super easily thats what i understood from that?

[@themorvy]

@@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).. The bigger the funds the more cautions you have to take imo

[@Q8xBaDBoY]

How is this possible? Can you tell me where and how I can recover my seed phrase if it's stored in the browser?

[@themorvy]

@@Q8xBaDBoY look for : Vault extraction and decryption instructions

[@DiandraStarShine]

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.

[@jakariya08]

Use safe

[@universal_1987]

Hacked four times!!! Delay in response is also another pain in the A.

[@anwarhidayat5045]

want to be safe? use hardware wallet.. why? even if you use something other than metamask it won't matter.. even if you put up a 100 layer wall too.. not safety..

[@Platinumdose420]

someone has a bot, when i buy BTC or something it is taken out right away how do i reset my secret keys?

[@scorpionx5172]

You can't . And im sure it's some hackers wallet .

[@josephlucheveleli7298]

I lost seed phrase to my Metamask wallet though it had no funds, can i create another Metamask account with the same email?

[@harryballsonya674]

Well I dont think you should worry yourself when Marvis Gateway" be restoring accounts like it's a Piece of Cake . He got pages for all social media Platform

[@joebrooks3872]

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.

[@dizly8072]

What is the point of having a strong password if the wallet can only be logged onto on the device it has been connected at?

[@DiandraStarShine]

seriously??🙄

[@saidbouzidi]

[@chanukyasiva4931]

Please if anyone to know about my problem help or suggest to me the issue is when i transfer the crypt to my wallet from another one its automatically transfer to unknown address so please tell me how to correct that
