How Should I Safely Store My Crypto and Make Sure My Devices Are Malware-Free?
As someone new to trading, what are the best ways to securely store cryptocurrency, and how can I make sure my iPhone and MacBook are free of any malware or viruses before I start?
Use a separate computer 100% offline (not before, not now, not after), wipe it before first use and install an os with the help of a usb key generated with the proper tools.
Use the genuine command line tools to generate your keys on it, there are also tools to sign a transaction offline on that same computer, use the generated tx json file, which won’t contain any useable key but a signed transaction, on an online computer to send it with another command line, use it for testing the generated address.
