avatar

As this world is becoming modern, our problems are also increasing. In the past times when technology was not advanced and there were not online workings. The scams and other identity thefts were also not present.

But as soon the worlds get advanced scammers also get active. Just like If I talk about #Hive ecosystem which is an online blogging platform. We have many good things to do and the benefits of being active in the platform is much higher.

But also there are negative points in the platform. Your wallet is not protected unless you take serious precautions. I have heard about many users who have lost their account by identity theft, password sharing, and other carelessness.

Today in this post I will try to share some best ways to protect your #HIVE wallet and give security to your fund. This is for all new comers joining the #hive ecosystem that the main thing in the platform is your wallet.

If you have wallet you can work in the platform but if there is no wallet this platform is useless. That is why #hive wallet has great importance to every user and we must be careful about it.

HIVE is the ecosystem which is the earning platform and you will earn rewards in the form of HIVE coin. If you open and check your wallet you will see three types of funds that is HIVE, HIVE POWER and HBD. All belongs to your wallet and have great importance in the platform.

Key Steps to Protecting Your Funds

Keep in mind that password generated by the hive platform itself is best. Dont ever think to change the password rather think about how to give protection to your keys. The platform itself that generates password is much stronger and complex which is hard for the scammer to get access to it.

Keep your private keys secure. Never share your keys in any kind of social media platform. This act will help the scammers to reach your passward via social media. Consider writing them down on paper and keeping them in a safe place.

Be-aware of phishing attacks, such as never click to any link which is suspicious. There is a type of scammer who sends your link while saying that by clicking this link you will get airdrop or any other bonus fund. This is all lie and no one is here to give you free fund.

Never keep your master key in your PC or laptop. Rather write it on paper or copy them in a flash drive and never connect it to any device. This is the safest way to keep your keys protected.

Avoid public WI-FI networks. Because many users are connected with one network which increase the chance of scammers to reach your account. These are the ways to protect your #HIVE wallet.

It is a great advice for newbies... It is also one thing to write it on paper, and another thing to keep the paper safe. I can be so careless.
