What Are Best Practices for Securing a Non-Custodial Wallet?

Securing a non-custodial wallet begins with safeguarding the seed phrase or private key. This should be written down and stored in a secure, offline location, never digitally.

Using a hardware wallet, which keeps private keys offline at all times, provides a much higher level of security than software wallets. Users should also be wary of phishing scams and only interact with trusted websites and applications.

Finally, using strong, unique passwords and enabling two-factor authentication for any associated software provides an additional layer of protection.
