Your crypto is only as safe as you make it.

Keep yourself safe, and keep your cryptocurrency safe too. Avoid common mistakes that, in the world of crypto, can cost you everything. Here are 5 tips for keeping your crypto safe:

  1. Enable 2FA on your account. By using only password protection, you can expose your account to fraudulent activities, including hacking. At Busha, we encourage our community to enable 2FA on their Busha app to keep their crypto safe. Not sure how to go about it? This article might help.
  2. Take your private keys offline. Your private keys are the easiest way for a person to gain access to your crypto. Do not save them online. Your devices, email accounts, etc. may be vulnerable. Save them somewhere that is not connected to the internet.
  3. Beware of phishers. Never give out sensitive information to funny-looking email addresses or websites. Busha will never ask you for sensitive information that is a breach of your privacy.
  4. If something looks too good to be true, it probably is. Don’t get carried away by fancy claims and awesome giveaways. Always read in between the lines and verify whatever information you have received.
  5. When in doubt, check the official website. Unfortunately, many fake apps have found their way to app stores. These apps have been designed to steal private information and even crypto. When not sure about an app, visit the official website, and follow the download link. You can also verify an app by checking the number of downloads it has.

Stay safe always. For more information, helpful articles, and FAQs, visit our support page: support.busha.co
