    One of the most important steps to protect your ETH is to use a secure wallet. Hardware wallets, such as Ledger or Trezor, provide an extra layer of security by keeping your private keys offline. Make sure to purchase your wallet directly from the manufacturer to avoid any tampering. Additionally, enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on your wallet and any exchange accounts you use to further enhance security.

    When it comes to securing your ETH, it's crucial to be cautious of phishing attempts. Always double-check the URLs you visit and avoid clicking on suspicious links. Be wary of unsolicited emails or messages asking for your private keys or login credentials. Remember, no legitimate service will ask for your private keys or passwords.
