My kind of daily testing new pools, the worst thing isn't losing money, but one day accidentally sending the main wallet away with a shaky hand... So recently I've been thinking about how to choose between hardware wallets, multi-signature, and social recovery. Honestly, if your assets are still at a "toy level," a hardware wallet is enough—at least you need to sign manually, so you won't get swallowed by a web popup in one click; but if you have a bit more money and need to move it around frequently, multi-signature makes more sense—split the permissions, have one key yourself plus a backup, or find a reliable person/device to share the control. It's troublesome, but at least it won't be wiped out with one click. I feel social recovery is suitable for those who really might lose their seed phrase (like me), but it also depends on whether you trust "friends" or not—don't end up restoring with someone else’s info. Airdrop season now, task platforms are so competitive with anti-witchcraft measures, it’s like clocking in at work. I just use a small account and small funds to mess around casually, keeping the main assets locked tight—hope to survive a day at a time. Forget it.
