"Hey guys, just had my account info compromised and my whole crypto portfolio was drained. I've been reading up on security measures, but wanted to ask the experts here - what's the first thing I should do to secure my funds and prevent this from happening again? Any tips on 2FA, wallet setup, etc. would be super helpful!"

"Dang, sorry to hear that! Make sure to enable 2FA on all your crypto exchanges and wallets, that'll give an extra layer of security. Also, keep your software and browser up to date to avoid any known exploits"

"Dude, sorry to hear that. First off, make sure you've enabled 2FA on your exchange or wallet, and change all your passwords immediately. Also, reach out to the support team of the exchange/wallet you're using and they'll help you lock down your account ASAP."

"Damn, that's a rough experience. Always make sure to enable two-factor authentication (2FA) and use a reputable exchange that has robust security measures in place. Also, keep your software and system up to date with the latest security patches."
