🛡️ How to Stay Safe in Web3: A Newbie’s Tale(WEB3 101)

Meet Tunde.

Tunde just got his first airdrop. Buzzing with excitement, he clicked a random link someone DMed him:
“Claim your 10x bonus here!”

He connected his wallet.
Five minutes later...
All his tokens vanished.

What went wrong? Let’s break it down 🧵

1. 🚩 Red Flag: Unverified Links
Tunde didn’t check if the site was official.
✅ Always double-check URLs. Use tools like PhishFort or just Google the project name + “official site.”


2. 🚫 He Signed a Blind Transaction
That “Connect wallet” button had a hidden approval.
✅ Never sign a transaction you don’t understand. 


3. 📂 He Used Hot Wallet Only
Tunde had all his assets in his MetaMask.
✅ Use a cold wallet (like Ledger) for storage. Keep only what you need in hot wallets.


Tunde’s loss was painful, but now he's wiser.

If you're new to Web3, remember: 🔒 If it feels too good to be true, it probably is.
🧠 Stay skeptical, stay safe
