About this, I am trying to avoid storing any of my mnemonic phrases online, all are only offline.
Another thing is store it also in multiple places, and the one down side of this is the risk will be higher if you store it on multiple places but at the same time you have more back up, just make it safe to be able not be access by other people.

Keeping seed phrase by hand writing is cool but in a sheet of paper it is risky because a sheet of paper us small that can get missing,  in a note book will be more preferable for a  wallet seed phrase to be stored. It is very common that people record vital details on a sheet and forget where it was placed because of how tiny it is but with a note book is very easy to get access to it even if the exact location. Written storage is one of the best methods of storing the seedphrase .

In my own little way, I keep all the important things in my cryptocurrency on a USB flash drive; actually, three USBs, but the contents are all the same. I used to leave it on my desktop computer and on my cellphone, but later realized the disadvantage of this, so I moved everything on my desktop and cellphone to my flash drive.

At the very least, if something unforeseen occurs, such as typhoons, earthquakes, or home fires, I still have a USB that preserves all of the seed phrases, private keys, and so on. It is nonetheless important that we exercise caution in such instances.

But you should remember that electronic devices are easily damaged and you need to check them more often when storing using USB. It's best to write a copy down in a notebook and keep it where you feel safest. Also, I thought it would be good to share a copy with your wife just in case the unexpected happens to us. Every method has its advantages and disadvantages, we just need to choose the method that best suits us without having to imitate anyone.

Your mnemonic phrase is usually from 12 words and about,  so for me I think the best place to back it up is in your head, maybe after you must as well written it down somewhere you know it can be safe. Keep it safe away from Intruders, let it be one of your topmost secret
So always learn how to memorize it just like your phone number, and let it stick there in your head.

If you save it on your device, your device can easily get stolen or misplaced, or even if you you've written it down, it can as well get missing, so saving it in your head and memorizing it whenever the need arises is the best way to save your mnemonic phrase and to keep your wallet safe.

There is a diversity of methods in itself that each one is like a zoo, it is if from earthquake in its protection method. (metaphor)

And! generally what works best is the individual, his everyday skills in that aspect, such as answering openly in this post what would be his preferred ways to protect some phrases.

To secure a mnemonic phrase for cryptocurrency wallets, employ these steps:

Physical Storage: Write it on paper and keep in a secure, fireproof location.

Divide and Store: Split it and store parts separately for added security.

Hinted Mnemonic: Create cryptic hints for the mnemonic, enhancing security.

Password Encryption: Encrypt with a strong password and store digitally in a secure location.

Partial Memorization: Memorize key words, enabling access without revealing the full phrase.

Secure Environment: Use trusted devices and networks to access the mnemonic.

Regular Verification: Periodically check the mnemonic's accessibility and integrity.

I am someone who likes being alone, I don't have visitors and I live with my spouse only, my room is private to me only, so I don't have a problem writing down my recovery seed into a ledger book and also carving on a stainless steel in locked away in my safe, I've been doing this for a few years now and I don't have any problem about losing funds.

Let's try not to forget that its not about keeping your recovery seed safe only, some people are very good with this but they still lose their assets to scammers, what we interact our wallets with exposes us to more danger than keeping our recovery seed safe.

Most funds are lost due to connecting crypto wallets to unofficial links and websites, some links give access to the hacker, exposing your recovery seed, while some are because of our own greed, we are sent tokens that we don't buy with money, yet we want to claim and sell them.

It's wrong to memorize your recovery words, anything can happen to you and you won't remember the words anymore, it's a lot safer to have a hardware wallet or keep your recovery phrase written in a safe location.

There’s a popular belief that the human brain can store more information and data than the computer can do, but in this case, I disagree with that. It is better you write it down and save elsewhere or in an hardware wallet rather than trying to memorize it. The seed phrase is very sophisticated and hence, they can’t be easily assimilated into the brain to stay for a long time, not when we have so many things going up in our brains all the time.


While putting some in that exchange, hope you put only the one which you can afford to lose. I’m sure you did that because no person will save more money in exchange than a decentralised wallet where they have complete ownership of the funds. Only a novice that have no knowledge of crypto will do that or the ones that are negligence in events like this.

A passphrase is an extra layer of security for your wallet, it is an extra 'word' added to your seed phrase which creates another wallet and keys for you, take note that your passphrase does not have to be a 'word', you can use and add whatever you want, even characters to make it stronger and hard to brute force. So whenever you use your seed phrase without adding that passphrase you get the base wallet, but when you use your seed phrase + passphrase you get your second wallet, this set up is great for plausible deniability.

So with a passphrase set, if an attacker compromises your seed phrase, they will still need the passphrase to access your funds. Take note that if you use a seed phrase + passphrase set up, you will have more backups and you have to keep them in separate locations to avoid the possibility of a single point of failure.
