#加密资产安全与托管 Recently, I've come across several cases of cryptocurrency theft, and it’s quite upsetting. The victims not only faced threats of violence but also suffered significant losses due to improper private key management. This reminds me of a very often overlooked issue — as we move towards a Web3 decentralized future, the responsibility of self-custody of assets also comes with it.

Wallet private keys are like your house keys; if you tell others casually, write them on paper and leave them in plain sight, or even reveal them online, the consequences are obvious. The beauty of decentralization is that no one can freeze your assets, but the cost is that you must be fully responsible for your own security. This is not to scare everyone but to serve as a realistic reminder.

My advice is:
- **Hardware wallets are standard** — Cold wallets isolate network threats and are currently the safest method
- **Never go online with seed phrases and private keys** — physical backups, multiple storage locations, password protection
- **Beware of social engineering** — don’t easily disclose asset information even to trusted individuals
- **Regularly check your accounts** — detect abnormal transfers promptly

Web3 gives us the true power to own our assets, but power always comes with responsibility. Mastering security knowledge is like holding the key to protecting your wealth. I hope everyone can confidently embark on this journey of decentralization.
