Step-by-step instructions for separating hot minting wallets from primary vault reserves, hardware ledger setup, and revoking spending approvals.
Rule #1 of Web3 Security: Never connect your primary asset vault to unverified dApps or minting sites.
Recommended 3-Tier Wallet Structure:
1. Vault Reserve (Cold Storage / Multi-Sig): Stores 90% of total capital. Never signs unverified smart contract approvals.
2. Operational Wallet (Warm Storage): Stores 9% for active trading and staking on audited protocols.
3. Disposable Minting Wallet (Hot Storage): Stores 1% for new dApps, NFT mints, and experimental testnets.
Always regularly check and revoke active allowances using verified security tools.
