Enable two-factor authentication (2FA): Utilize 2FA whenever possible to add an extra layer of security to your Bitcoin accounts. This typically involves providing a second form of verification, such as a code generated by a mobile app, in addition to your password.

All passwords are only on a flash drive, preferably encrypted, and also never write information in messengers, even to yourself and do not connect wallets to unverified sites.

I prefer to keep my cryptocurrency in a cold wallet and not worry about the safety of my coins.

I have created a backup copy of my wallet: I also store passwords in several places.
