How should I store my recovery phrase?
Storing your recovery phrase, also known as a seed phrase, is a crucial aspect of securing your non-custodial crypto wallet. Here are some best practices for storing your recovery phrase:
- Use physical storage: Consider writing down your recovery phrase on paper or metal. This provides an offline backup that is not susceptible to hacking or digital theft.
- Secure and hidden location: Store your recovery phrase in a secure and hidden location, such as a safe deposit box, a home safe, or another location that is bothsecure and accessible only to you.
- Avoid digital storage: Refrain from storing your recovery phrase in digital format, such as in an email, a note on your computer, or in the cloud. Digital storage is more susceptible to hacking and unauthorized access.
