Digital Sovereignty: Protecting Your Crypto Assets Against Common Threats

by Josh McIntyre

Overview

"Knowledge builds confidence, and confident users can stand up to the threats that face them." For users of crypto assets such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, and others, security can be a challenging topic. There are many pitfalls to securing digital currencies, from managing exchange accounts, protecting self-custody wallets, and navigating social engineering scams. This book teaches users how to protect their crypto assets from common threats. Split into four parts, it covers wallet technology basics, custodial account security, self-custody key protection, and awareness of attacks that users may face. This book not only offers easy-to-apply security solutions, but helps readers understand why these practices exist so that they can develop a plan for their own individual needs.
