The security bottom line of self-custody wallets is actually very simple: the mnemonic phrase should always be stored only on your own device, and must never be shared, backed up to the cloud, or exposed to third parties.
Once this boundary is loosened, trouble arises. Mnemonic leaks, screenshots, cloud backup records—if any of these steps go wrong, your assets are essentially exposed to risk. Not to mention those seemingly convenient wallet custody services, which on the surface help you manage your assets but in reality are equivalent to handing over your private keys to others.
Therefore, t

That's right, I almost got screwed over once due to a cloud backup. Now I store my mnemonic phrase securely offline.

By the way, does anyone still use custodial wallets? They're just waiting to be exploited.

You really shouldn't mess with mnemonic phrases; a simple screenshot is enough to compromise them.

Strictly speaking, if you don't hold the keys yourself, don't claim to have coins.

Just maintaining this boundary is already difficult, not to mention protecting against screenshots and shoulder surfing.

That's why I prefer the hassle of storing paper wallets in a safe.

Blockchain's transparency is actually a double-edged sword—it was engineered for verification, not privacy. Here's the thing: everything recorded on-chain is permanently visible to the public. Your transaction history, wallet balances, token movements—all of it sits there exposed. Anyone with basic tools can trace your on-chain activities back. This fundamental design choice between decentralization and confidentiality remains one of crypto's most pressing tradeoffs. The more transparent a blockchain is, the easier it is to verify, but the harder it becomes to maintain user privacy.

What is true investment? This question is repeatedly asked in the crypto market.
Take BTC as an example. Since its inception, some people see it as digital gold and a store of value. From this perspective, it is considered an investment—you can observe the long-term trend, with institutional allocation ratios increasing and fundamentals supporting it. But others purely chase price fluctuations, entering and exiting based on short-term emotions. This behavior pattern is close to gambling. The same asset, the stance determines its nature.
As for market prediction? It is itself an information tra

When strangers approach you online about crypto opportunities, especially through casual messaging, staying cautious is smart. If unsolicited investment pitches arrive in your DMs from unknown accounts, your safest move is to block and move on. These are classic social engineering tactics used in crypto scams. Remember: legitimate projects and platforms never recruit users through random personal messages.

Model Context Protocols (MCPs) come in two different types, each serving a specific function. Understanding how to use them correctly is crucial.
First is the knowledge-based MCP, which can be understood as a read-only information repository. Taking ask-ai-mcp as an example, this type of tool is especially suitable for quickly learning the overall ecosystem of a public chain, with very low risk. Want to know the specific purpose of the BEP-641 proposal? Want to understand how a certain feature works? These tools can provide you with direct answers, saving you time from reading documentation.

If you trade futures on any trading platform, there are three concepts you cannot ignore: margins, liquidations, and stop orders. Understanding how they work is the difference between winning and losing all your capital.
Margins allow you to trade with more money than you have, but this amplifies both gains and losses. Liquidations occur when the price moves against you and your position falls below the minimum required level. And stop orders are your safety net to limit damage when things go wrong.

Want to grasp what Ethereum truly offers? Stop looking at price charts.
Focus on three things instead: dependency—how deeply integrated it's become in the ecosystem; flows—the actual movement of assets and information across the network; trust minimization—how much faith you actually need to place in intermediaries.
That's where the real public-good value shows up. It's not flashy, but it's where the fundamental strength lives. The infrastructure works because fewer middlemen means lower friction, and lower friction drives adoption.
This thinking shapes how we should evaluate Ethereum's role i

Looking at the price charts, this habit really should be broken. Compared to candlestick charts, I care more about how many people are actually using this thing.

Minimizing trust hits the point—fewer middlemen taking a cut, how much better is that? This is what infrastructure should look like.

Mechanism > Data, well said, but the problem is most people don't care about these at all.

Shareholders face a hard cap on annual dividend payouts—maximum 5% of the original par value. With par at ¥100, that translates to ¥5 per share tops. This legal ceiling exists across most jurisdictions to protect corporate capital reserves and maintain financial stability. Pretty restrictive when you think about yield expectations, right? 💭

Precision in terminology matters more than most realize. When we discuss blockchain, tokens, or market mechanics, are we actually talking about the same thing? Sloppy definitions create confusion—and confusion breeds bad decisions. Getting the fundamentals right isn't just academic pedantry; it's the foundation for clearer analysis, better risk assessment, and healthier community discourse. Let's be intentional about how we use our words.
