Key principles
Understand, then verify
Cold-storage concepts seek to reduce online exposure of signing secrets. They still require careful backups and transaction review.
Limit exposure
Reduce the occasions on which sensitive keys encounter connected or untrusted systems.
Verify signing
Review the address, network and amount even when keys are stored offline.
Plan recovery
Learn the restoration process before a device fails.
Never share a private key or recovery phrase. Pause on unfamiliar signing requests or websites.
