Common crypto mistake to avoid 2

Crypto mistake,are the regrettable mistake people do make in their crypto journey.

In my lost post,I talked about the risk involved in putting all your funds in a single exchange or wallet.

Today we will talk about copying your seedphrase and leaving it in your clipboard either on phone or PC.

Leaving the seedphrase to your wallet in your clipboard is a bad thing or behavior that can put your wallet at risk.

Although leaving your seedphrase in clipboard makes it easier for you to access your wallet anytime, anywhere in case of emergency, or when you access a web 3 site that needs you to connect a wallet that is not previously downloaded  or installed in your phone. 
You can quickly download the wallet or the wallet extension and access your previous wallet easily without having to look for your seedphrase from your previous wallet or looking for it from the pieces of paper where you previous wrote it down.

But all the above mentioned reasons did not outway the fact that such practice can put your wallet at risk. Because there are lots of websites out there that can read all the messages you have in your clipboard. 

Therefore stop leaving your wallet seedphrase in your clipboard. 
Always write it down in a piece of paper and keep it safe , keep out from the reach of children, water and from people ( most especially those people who are into crypto too.) because if you write it down on a pieces of paper and keep it carelessly, any crypto enthusiastic can easily identify a seedphrase because it usually contains 12-24 words.

Watch out for more mistakes people do in crypto and how to avoid them .
