A few steps from the list
Every step comes with a short explanation of what to do and why it matters.
Reject pre-filled devices
A hardware wallet that arrives with a recovery phrase already printed in the box has been tampered with. Always generate your own phrase on the device.
Turn on the anti-phishing code
Many exchanges let you set a personal code that appears in every genuine email. A message without it is a red flag.
Prepare before you need it
Set up a clean incident wallet in advance. In an emergency, minutes matter — and that is no time to install software.
