🛡 Q1 2024 web3 raised captial across the Top 20 projects with data courtesy of #dropstab 🛡

🛡 A breakdown in Wallet Management is coming later today, if you read one thing this year, it'll have to be this as honestly your Wallet Management could make or break your crypto cycle;

Will be going into the basics and share tips and tricks to make your journey into crypto as safe as it possibly can be 🛡

☸ The Introduction and Fundermentals of web3 #Wallet Management ☸

This current market cycle is in full flow & more and more newcomers are coming into the industry, however that like feeding food for scam artists and it's now more important than ever to understand how to manage your wallets;

🔳 What is a web3 wallet 🔳

A Web3 wallet is like a digital container for your online assets, allowing you to securely store & manage your cryptocurrencies & digital collectibles. Besides that, it allows you to interact with decentralized applications on the blockchain;

🔳 What are the key differences between a traditional crypto wallet and a web3 wallet 🔳

A traditional cryptocurrency wallet is soley used has a digital vault for your assets, only allowing the functions of sending or recieving assets within the application.

Where a web3 wallet differs, it allows you to explore the decentralised web3 landscape and explore sectors like DeFi and Gaming, giving you a plethora of opportunities to explore, interact and learn;

🔳 What are the different types of web3 wallets 🔳

There are two main types of web3 wallet:

🔥 Hot Wallet 🔥

A hot wallet is simply a wallet that is available online, whether that's through a desktop, web and/or mobile application, this type of wallet is best for everyday activities, however this type of wallet is more sceptical to security threats;

▫️ Examples of Hot Wallets ▫️

🔥 Metamask - https://metamask.io/

🔥 Trust Wallet - https://trustwallet.com/

🔥 Phantom Wallet -
https://phantom.app/

🔥 Exodus Wallet -
https://exodus.com/

🔥 OKX Wallet -
https://www.okx.com/web3

❄️ Cold Wallets ❄️

A cold wallet is a physical hardware device which is offline, much less risk of being attacked and only used to store and transfer assets and suitable for substantial amounts of assets to be stored;

▫️ Examples of Cold Wallets ▫️

❄️ Ledger - https://www.ledger.com/

❄️ Trezor -
https://trezor.io/

❄️ Ellipal -

🔳 web3 wallet Public, Private Keys, Seedphrases and Security Tips 🔳

Web3 wallets enable digital identity, providing users with a unique set of cryptographic keys known as a “private key” and a “public key” that are used to prove ownership and control of digital assets.

▫️ What is a web3 wallet Public Key & Private Key ▫️

A public key is a piece of information that is used to prove that a transaction was signed by the owner of a digital asset. It is used to verify the authenticity of transactions and can be shared publicly;

A private key is a secret piece of information that is used to prove ownership of digital assets. It is used to sign transactions that are sent to the blockchain, and it is only known to the owner of the digital assets;

▫️ What is a web3 wallet Seedphrase/Secret Recovery Phrase▫️

A seedphrase, also known as your wallet's secret recovery phrase or mnemonic phrase, is a list of words that act as a master key to your digital wallet. This 12 word seed phrase generates and provides access to your private keys. This means that anyone with the recovery phrase also controls your crypto assets;

🔳 web3 wallet Security Tips 🔳

▫️ Regularly updating wallet software/app

▫️ Using Strong and Unique passwords

▫️Activating Two Factor Authentication (2FA)

▫️ Recogning Phishing attempts and avoiding scams

▫️ Utilising hardware wallets for long term storage

▫️ Storing backups of Wallet Data in secure locations

▫️ Never EVER share your seedphrase with ANYONE

▫️ Diversify your wallets

▫️ NEVER download files sent from a stranger

▫️ Be wary of social media direct messages

▫️ Remove unnecessary browser extensions

▫️ NEVER reuse passwords

▫️ Watch out for Fake NFT collections

▫️ Don't respond to unsolicited DMs

▫️Spotting and avoiding web3 scams 🔻

🛡 This ends Part 1 of Wallet Management, Part 2 will be coming tonight introducing you all to recommendations of wallet management practices and the browser extensions to use to keep your web3 wallet as safe as it possibly can be 🛡

☸ The Fundermentals of web3 Wallet Management Part 2 ☸

Now you've all had the introduction into web3 wallet management and understand the different types and keys involved, it's now time to share recommendations on how to setup and manage your web3 wallets and create a strategy;

🔥 Hot Wallet Setup 🔥

▫️Two multichain wallets for OnChain activities
▫️Required blockchain wallets to complete testnet activities over multiple chains
▫️One wallet for trading activities only if required

Whether you use Metamask, Trust Wallet or another web3 wallet of your choosing, having this setup enables you to be flexible and safe when exploring the web3 decentralized landscape;

▫️Your first hot wallet will act as a daily wallet, this wallet is the one you use daily to interact with decentralized applications and have enough assets in this wallet to do so, this wallet could also become your main NFT wallet, if that sector is of interest to you;

▫️Your second hot wallet will act as a your web3 asset portfolio, whether your preparing to sell assets or dollar-cost averaging into assets, this is where you can build your portfolio for a market cycle;

▫️I have been gradually introducing you all to the process of testnets, the requirements and actions you all need to take to have the best possible experience. With testnets across the industry, you'll need to be flexible and select wallets which would successfully work with the testnet in question your whilling to test for any particular project;

▫️If you trade assets whether that's using a centralised exchange for example being Binance or Kucoin and/or using a decentralised exchange for example being Uniswap or Pancake Swap, it's advised to have a seperate wallet to trade with, so you know when you log into that wallet, your going to trade and nothing else, which keeps you more organised knowing which of your wallets you want to use at any given time;

❄️ Cold Wallet Setup ❄️

▫️ One Cold Wallet where your long-term portfolio assets will reside
▫️ One Cold Wallet soley for backup purposes

Ledger to Trezor, cold wallets are offline and advise not to connect with dapps as that defeats the purpose of what a cold wallet is there to provide, an extra layer of security giving you peace of mind that your assets are as safe as they can be;

Each cold wallet manufacturer vary from the features the wallet provides, an example would be if a wallet having bluetooth technology and/or a touchscreen, to the assets the wallet supports as not all cold wallets support the same assets and its always best to check in advance what assets the wallet supports before investing into cold wallets;

Lastly on this topic, cold wallets vary from the latest technologies which are involved to build the devices, this includes encryption models, security chips and form factor. When you look to purchase a cold wallet, the secure element level is shown as EAL plus a number and to give you an idea, in the financial sector products used EAL4+ and EAL5+ are commonly used, however EAL6+ is military grade and the best on the retail market currently;

📜 The History of Bitcoin $BTC 📜

We are 3 days off the next $BTC Halvening, an event which happens every 4 years, however without knowing the events which came before this, understanding the whole process and the magnitude of the Halvening, it'll be hard to truly appreciate the journey Bitcoin has been on since it's inception in 2009;

📜 The Birth of Bitcoin 📜

💰 Bitcoin was first introduced to the world in 2008. The goal was to create a decentralized digital currency free from the control of governments and central banks. On October 31st 2008, the Bitcoin whitepaper is released by an unknown individual or group of individuals going by the pseudonym 'Satoshi Nakamoto', The whitepaper, titled 'Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System' was also published on the Cryptography Mailing List. The whitepaper described a decentralized digital currency system which it proposed the use of a blockchain, a public ledger that would record all transactions in a secure and transparent manner. The Bitcoin network would rely on a network of computers to validate transactions and maintain the integrity of the blockchain.

💰 Unlike conventional currencies, Bitcoin functions on a peer-to-peer network, which means that transactions happen directly between users without a middleman such as a bank. This decentralization is a defining feature of Bitcoin, which differentiates it from traditional currencies.

💰 Bitcoin was officially launched on Jan. 3, 2009, when the first block of transactions, known as the genesis block, was mined.

💰Bitcoin’s supply is limited to a maximum of 21 million coins. This means no additional coins will be generated or created after reaching the 21 million limit. Satoshi Nakamoto introduced the concept of limiting the quantity of crypto and making it more valuable to combat inflation.

📜 Bitcoin Early Years 📜

▫️ 1st Ever Recorded Price of $BTC - March 17th 2010

March 17, 2010 was the first-ever recorded price of bitcoin at a value of $0.003 on the now-defunct bitcoinmarket.com. This event’s implications while seemingly minor at the time would contribute to the gradual emergence of bitcoin as a recognized and valued asset;

▫️Bitcoin Pizza Day - May 22nd 2010

The first known commercial transaction takes place using Bitcoin when Laszlo Hanyecz paid 10,000 bitcoins for two large Papa John’s pizzas, which were delivered to him in Jacksonville, Florida;

At the time of the transaction, the value of the 10,000 bitcoins was only a few dollars. However, the transaction has become infamous as an example of just how much the cryptocurrency has appreciated in value;

▫️ Mt Gox Founded - July 18th 2010

On July 18, 2010, Mt. Gox was founded by programmer Jed McCaleb. Initially, it got its unlikely start as a platform for trading virtual cards in the game Magic: The Gathering, then evolved into a pioneer Bitcoin exchange. Its history was marred by chaos, hacks, and scandals, ultimately culminating in its downfall and the ongoing legal proceedings involving its ex-owner, Mark Karpelès;

Mt. Gox, originally mtgox.com, was a platform that exchanged fiat currency for Bitcoin. It was one of the first Bitcoin exchanges, signaling the growing interest in cryptocurrencies as a form of digital value;

▫️Current $BTC Logo Released - November 1st 2010

Satoshi Nakamoto, the anonymous creator of Bitcoin, initially offered two earlier versions of the Bitcoin logo, the first at Bitcoin’s inception, and then an updated version the next year. However, the infamous Bitcoin logo that we have come to associate with the cryptocurrency was created by an unknown artist using the handle “Bitboy";

The new logo effectively took Satoshi’s earlier creations and improved upon them to create a distinct look for the Bitcoin blockchain. “Bitboy” rendered a white and slanted “B” on top of a bright orange background in a design that reminded many of payment companies, like Mastercard;

▫️1st $BTC Bubble - June 2021

The Bitcoin Bubble of 2011 becomes a major event in the history of Bitcoin. While Bitcoin was created in 2008, it wasn’t until 2011 that its price really began to skyrocket.

📜 Bitcoin Blockchain Developments 📜

▫️Liquid Launches - October 12th 2015

The cryptocurrency landscape witnessed a significant development with the launch of Liquid. Liquid, often referred to as a Bitcoin sidechain and layer, introduced a novel approach to enhancing the functionality and versatility of Bitcoin, addressing some of the limitations inherent in the Bitcoin blockchain. Liquid was designed to operate as a separate blockchain, running in parallel to the Bitcoin network;

▫️ SegWit Activation Day - August 17th 2017

SegWit is activated on August 24, 2017 at 1:57 UTC at block height 481,824, marking the launch of one of the most significant developments to the Bitcoin network aimed at addressing several long-standing issues, such as transaction malleability and scalability. For many in the Bitcoin ecosystem, SegWit's activation marked the end of the block size wars that divided the Bitcoin community, thereby cementing August 1 as Bitcoin Independence Day;

Segregated Witness, often abbreviated as SegWit, was proposed as a solution to these problems. It sought to increase the capacity of the Bitcoin blockchain by separating transaction data from the digital signatures. This innovation aimed to reduce the size of transactions, allowing more of them to fit within a single block and thereby increasing the network's throughput. Additionally, SegWit brought on several security improvements, making Bitcoin transactions more resilient to certain types of attacks;

▫️ Smart Contracts and $BTC get closer to Reality - January 1st 2018

The launch of IOVlabs brought Bitcoin and smart contracts closer to each other. IOVlabs was created to bring smart contract capabilities to the Bitcoin network through the Rootstock platform. Rootstock, often referred to as "Smart Bitcoin" or "RSK," is a Turing-complete smart contract platform that is merge-mined with Bitcoin. This means that Bitcoin miners can secure both networks simultaneously, enhancing security while enabling smart contract execution on Bitcoin's blockchain. IOVlabs served as the development and operational arm of Rootstock, driving its growth and adoption;

▫️ Stacks Bitcoin Layer Launches - January 2021

The Stacks Bitcoin layer launches to enable smart contracts, DeFi, NFTs, and other additional use cases for Bitcoin. The Stacks project was originally known as Blockstack and co-created by Trust Machines CEO Muneeb Ali and Ryan Shea. The layer features its own programming language, Clarity, and consensus mechanism known as Proof-of-Transfer (PoX). Together, they allow for the execution of smart contracts on the Bitcoin blockchain;

▫️ Taproot Upgrade largest $BTC advancements since 2017 - November 14th 2021

The Taproot upgrade activation is successfully achieved, marking the largest advancement to the Bitcoin core following 2017’s SegWit activation;

It was designed to enhance the privacy, security, and flexibility of Bitcoin transactions by introducing several important features. The most notable of these features was the ability to combine multiple transaction scripts into one, enhancing privacy and efficiency for bitcoin transactions. Additionally, Shnorr signatures and smart contract functionality improvements were also introduced;

▫️ The BRC-20 Token standard - March 2023

The BRC-20 token standard was created in March of 2023 by a pseudonymous on-chain analyst named Domo @domdata on X. Domo was playing with creating fungibility on Bitcoin using Ordinals inscriptions, a concept that then took off as the popularity of Bitcoin Ordinals grew. By early May 2023, what Domo initially emphasized was a "fun experiment" on Twitter ballooned to $991 million in market cap, effectively putting BRC-20 tokens on the map;

Similar to Ordinal Theory, BRC-20 also has a "first-in-first-out" model. This means that whoever is the first to deploy a token on BRC-20 becomes its rightful owner, which has naturally led to the rush of BRC-20 enthusiasts looking to mint their own tokens;

▫️ Bitcoin Stamps Launches - April 6th 2023

The Bitcoin Stamps protocol launches, allowing users to mint semi-fungible tokens and digital collectibles using the Counterparty protocol. These Stamps are stored directly on Bitcoin’s UTXOs, which differs from Ordinals. The introduction of Bitcoin Stamps made it the third development in the first half of 2023 that demonstrated the expanding use cases of the Bitcoin blockchain, contributing to much of the excitement that Ordinals brought to the Bitcoin community;

📜 Bitcoin Milestones which made Traditional Global Markets take note 📜

▫️ Bitcoin hits 1BN Market capitalisation for the 1st time - March 28th 2013

The market cap of the entire Bitcoin network surpasses $1 billion for the first time.

▫️1st Utility Coin ICO - July 3rd 2013

The Mastercoin Initial Coin Offering (ICO) stands as a significant milestone in the history of cryptocurrencies, heralding the dawn of a new era for blockchain fundraising. This pioneering event took place in July 2013 when the crypto landscape was still in its infancy. Mastercoin, later rebranded as Omni, aimed to push the boundaries of the Bitcoin blockchain by introducing innovative features that laid the groundwork for many subsequent blockchain projects;

▫️ $BTC hits $1TN Market capitalisation - February 19th 2021

The price of Bitcoin hits $54,000, effectively taking the cryptocurrency to a $1 trillion market cap 13 years after its inception;

▫️Bitcoin becomes Legal Tender in El Salvador - September 7th 2021

El Salvador made history by becoming the first nation in the world to pass a groundbreaking Bitcoin law, officially recognizing the cryptocurrency as legal tender alongside the U.S. dollar. Spearheaded by President Nayib Bukele. This landmark decision promised to transform the country's financial landscape. In the wake of this development, signs have emerged that Bitcoin is gaining traction within the nation, with restaurants, shops, and even hotels now accepting Bitcoin payments;

▫️ 1st $BTC ETF, Bitcoin Strategy Fund Begins Trading - October 19th 2021

The first Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) starts trading on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) eight years after the Winklevoss brothers filed an application. The ProShares Bitcoin Strategy ETF (BITO) tracked bitcoin prices through futures contracts that were traded on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) and inspired future institutional adoption of Bitcoin;
