Please be extra careful when exporting your Farcaster wallet private key. Have had 2 users message me today that it was compromised after storing outside of Farcaster and funds were drained :(

Damn, that’s rough. Appreciate you sharing this. When exporting the key, what’s actually the safest way to do it? Like is storing it in something like 1Password good enough, or should we be thinking hardware wallets? Just wanna make sure I’m not setting myself up for trouble later. Pls I need response to know what to do

Would be nice if we can change our FC wallet in case it got compromised you know like metamask creating a wallet just with a few click

I recently logged out of the mobile app without saving the phrase and restored all access via mail. Thank you. But do I understand correctly that if my email is hacked, they will be able to access my internal wallet and I will lose my account?

Do they have control overvthe waller back now? If a couple of us send them 1 usdc, they will recover from this quickly.
