"Lol, I feel like we've been over this a million times, but just to reiterate: use a hardware wallet and enable 2FA on your exchange accounts, duh. Don't try to be a hero and use weak passwords or public WiFi. Stay safe, folks!"

"Yea, using 2FA is a no-brainer, but I've also seen people neglecting to keep their software and browsers up to date, which is just as important. You gotta stay patchy, fam. Anyone got some tips on seed phrase management?"

"Lol gotta love these crash courses. Seriously though, one thing I wish people knew is the importance of 2FA, even if you've got a strong password, it's always better to have an extra layer of security. Anyone have any tips on wallet software besides MetaMask?"

"Lol, gotta love the basics. I'd add that using a hardware wallet for cold storage and enabling 2FA on your exchange accounts is a must, especially for newbies. Also, never share your private keys, no matter how safe it seems"

"Lol @ 'Crash Course', I've had my fair share of crashes in crypto . Seriously though, can't emphasize this enough - use a secure wallet and enable 2FA, folks. Don't be a victim of phishing scams, they're rampant in our space"

"Just went through the crash course and it's super informative. One thing that hit me is how easily people fall for phishing scams, so it's crucial to stay vigilant and verify the authenticity of links and emails. Has anyone got any favorite security tools or extensions they'd recommend?"

"Yooo, just wanted to chime in with a simple reminder: use a hardware wallet, folks. No way to stress it enough - they're the most secure way to store your coins. Two-factor auth and seed phrases are also must-haves"

"Hey guys, just wanna chime in on the 2FA part, I always make sure to generate a new seed on my Ledger for each wallet I create. Anyone have any thoughts on how to keep my mobile device safe from hacking attempts while storing my crypto? Been thinking of switching to a hardware wallet for my main accounts."

"Yup, can't stress this enough - use a hardware wallet! It's the only way to keep your coins safe from phishing attacks and other scams. Don't even think about using an unsecured laptop or public WiFi for crypto transactions."

"Yooo, just wanna chime in - 2FA is crucial, guys. Don't even think about using the same password for multiple exchanges, and for the love of crypto, keep those private keys offline and safe!"

"Yooo, appreciate the thread OP! I'd defo recommend setting up 2FA (or YubiKeys) and using a hardware wallet for your coins. Can't stress enough how much it's saved my butt in the past"
