RE: My BSC wallet was hacked and all my assets were stolen: Coping, Security and an expensive lesson

Sorry to hear the news that is grim.

I've got very paranoid since hearing it.

I secure my MetaMask with a Trezor - all my seed phrases are on two encrypted USBs (the data gets wiped after 6 incorrect attempts). (You might find the NANO interface infuriating btw, you'll see what I mean when you start having to deal with the piddly little toggle keys on the device).

Those seed phrases are the things to keep really secure and defo nowhere on your computer.

Glad to hear you're bouncing back immediately, it's all you can, do, get a plan to earn back those funds.

Be also very careful with any spending approvals that you authorise as well... they don't need a seed phrase if you have given the okay to spend everything!

Fair point, I've been through everything on my non Trezored MM accounts and revoked most authorities.

I got Nano because it now supports Hive and it's the only one I can get within a week. The alternative is to wait for weeks or months for international shipping

Ah fair enough, well it will still work!
