Definition
Tricking you into revealing keys or signing a malicious transaction.
Crypto phishing takes several forms: fake wallet sites, fake support agents in Discord, poisoned search ads, and copycat domains one character different from the real one.
The goal is always the same. Get you to type your seed phrase somewhere, or get you to sign a transaction that hands over your assets.
In practice
Bookmark the real sites you use and navigate from your bookmarks. Never click a wallet link from a search ad.

Want this explained out loud?
Some of these land faster in conversation than in writing. Sessions are one to one and you can ask anything, including the things that feel too obvious to ask.
