💯

Add using Linux/BSD for darknet stuff. You don't gotta do Linux/BSD full time, just for darknet and crypto stuff. Tails or Linux Mint for the novices out there. Qubes, Kicksecure, and OpenBSD for the dedicated. Stay away from Mac/Windows.

If they are "always 10 steps ahead anyway" then what difference does it make if people share advice like this publicly? What a nonsensical comment.

A1 post with amazing practicality. I find the easiest way to track your wallets so you dont "cross-contaminate" the wallet by using it on several markets, with several vendors etc., is to simply label each and every wallet, both sending and receiving. Makes it 10x easier to make sure you're using the correct wallet with the correct market/person. Hope this helps

do I need to create separate wallets, or is creating new accounts within a wallet sufficient?

Appreciate that, and yes, I strongly agree, labeling wallets is such an underrated tip. Makes life way easier once things start scaling.

Separate wallets is the safer move. New accounts help, but separate wallets keep things clean and avoid mix-ups.

Good add. Separating environments in general is smart, especially if privacy matters.
