Essential Guide to Safeguarding Your 24-Word Seed

  1. Write It Down → Use pen and paper to record your 24-word recovery phrase
  2. Never Digitize → Don't take screenshots, photos, or store in emails/clouds
  3. Multiple Copies → Create 2-3 physical copies stored in different secure locations
  4. Secure Storage → Use a safe, safety deposit box, or fireproof vault
  5. Keep It Secret → Never share your recovery phrase with anyone, ever
  6. Test Recovery → Verify your backup works by testing recovery in a safe environment
  7. Avoid Memorization → Don't rely on memory; physical backup is safest
  8. Update Locations → Inform trusted family members of backup locations (not the phrase itself)
  9. Regular Checks → Periodically verify your backups are still safe and accessible

Pro Tip: Your recovery phrase is the master key to your funds. Treat it with the same care as physical cash or valuable documents.
