How do you keep hackers away from your crypto? I am always paranoid when it comes to crypto investment and I have to be sure my investment goes to the right people and I'm not investing in some scam. Anyway, how do you make sure you're protected when it comes to your crypto?

The best way to protect you crypto from hackers is by using a secure wallet: Store your cryptocurrency in a reputable hardware wallet or a software wallet with strong security features. Hardware wallets are generally considered more secure as they keep your private keys offline. Not only that make sure that you protect your personal information from online hackers or people around you.

Well, what you can do is put obstacles so that hackers do not attack you, you can use a hardware wallet, which is one of the safest ways, or use a paper wallet, in the event that you use a cryptocurrency exchange to save your assets (which is not recommended) it would be best to activate all the security you can, such as masterkey, two-step authenticator, a good password, etc.

If you can, use a hardware wallet. These are the most secure wallets for storing your crypto. If you cannot use a hardware wallet, try using a desktop wallet. Try using multiple wallets and spread your funds on multiple wallets to minimize your risk (even if one of your wallets gets hacked, you will still have another one)

I believe that the best way for you to make sure that you don't lose your cryptocurrency to any kind of hacker is by securing the kind of wallet that you make use of when it comes to holding your assets and it is the reason why a lot of people prefer making use of hard wallet when it comes to using it to hold their coins. Also, use 2FA to build up your account security.

I don't think that my account will ever be interesting to fraudsters because I don't have a lot of assets and I'm not a public person, so they won't even know that it's worth checking my wallet because there are millions of people like me. I have very reliable and different passwords everywhere, as well as all possible protection methods. This is a special code and two-step verification

I'm trying to figure out how to stop hackers from stealing my crypto too.

I would advise to store your cryptocurrency in cold wallets (offline wallets) like hardware wallets (e.g., Trezor, Ledger) or paper wallets. These are not connected to the internet, making them less vulnerable to hacking.
