Follow These Guidelines

Never store your seed phrase on cloud storage or in plain text on connected devices.

Verify downloads from the official domain and check signatures when available.

Consider multi-location backups (e.g., home safe, safety deposit box) for significant funds.

Periodically test recovery on a non-critical wallet to ensure your backup process works.
