Know what controls your money.
A crypto wallet is not like a bank login. On XRPL, your wallet is controlled by cryptographic keys. If you understand addresses, seeds, reserves, tags, trust lines, and signing, you avoid most beginner mistakes.
Rule #1: Never share your seed.
Your seed phrase or secret key is full control of the wallet. No support agent, website, giveaway, or recovery tool should ever ask for it.
