This isnโ€™t fiction. Itโ€™s real.
Johan, a 28-year-old crypto trader from Johannesburg, was kidnapped and brutally tortured in a warehouse.
Why? He bragged about his crypto holdings to the wrong people.
They demanded his seed phrase โ€” and got it.
$220,000 vanished in moments.
His fingers? Burned and shattered.
His spirit? Broken.
This is the brutal truth behind decentralization.

Crypto gives you control, but zero protection.
Donโ€™t become another statistic:

Use a hardware wallet. Store 90% offline.

Enable 2FA (never SMS). Biometrics over phone numbers.

Set up a decoy wallet. Be ready to lie.

Speak less. Privacy beats pride.

Stick to regulated exchanges like Binance โ€” they offer a layer of security.

What you own can make you a target.
Stay cautious. Stay discreet. Stay alive.

Want to avoid becoming the next cautionary tale? Follow these essential security tips: โบ Use a hardware wallet. Donโ€™t keep your coins on exchanges or browser wallets. Cold storage like Ledger or SafePal offers true protection. โบ Keep your seed phrase offline. Never store it on your phone, computer, or cloud. Write it down and secure it physically โ€” preferably in metal or in multiple safe locations. Never share it. โบ Ignore unsolicited help. No legitimate tech support will ever ask for your seed phrase or offer to recover your wallet. Itโ€™s always a scam. โบ Avoid suspicious links and QR codes. One click can cost you everything. Stick to official websites and verified software only. โบ Use a dedicated device. Donโ€™t manage crypto on the same phone or computer you use for everyday browsing or social media. โบ Stay discreet. Bragging about your crypto holdings makes you a target. Keep your balances and wallets private. โบ Trust no one. These scams are designed to lower your guard.
