Hola Web3 Adventurer! 👋

You’re reading this because you’re insecure.

Are you insecure?

Ya?

Hi Insecure, I’m Scott.

Look, security isn’t sexy. It isn’t fun. And it’s generally hard to incentivize because it feels like “it will never happen to me.”

But it’s absolutely, uncompromisingly necessary for 3 reasons:

  1. The blockchain is immutable. If you make a mistake, or someone gets ahold of your assets, there is no one you can call and nothing you can do to get your money back.
  2. You are solely responsible for your assets for the rest of your life. The question isn’t ‘if’ you get hacked, but ‘when’. You need to take precautions today to mitigate the damage when it does.
  3. The #1 incentive in web3 for technically minded individuals with dubious ethics is hacking. The ROI on successful hacks is huge. And small scale hacking isn’t that hard because most people don’t bother with basic security. We’re in open waters, anon. Here there be monsters.

*There are exceptions to this rule. But just assume you should never do it.
