I just memorized by seed, why don't I see more people doing this? (alien.top)

Hi everyone,

I have memorized my seed phrase. This struck me as a crucial security measure, especially in a space where personal responsibility for security is paramount.

However, I've noticed that this doesn't seem to be a common practice among my peers and in the broader Ethereum community. This got me wondering: why is memorizing your seed phrase not as widespread as I expected?

Is it due to the fear of forgetting it, or do most people rely on other forms of secure backups? Perhaps it's the complexity of the phrases or a general lack of awareness about how effective this method can be?

I'm curious to hear your thoughts and experiences. Do you memorize your seed phrase? If not, what are your preferred methods for secure storage? Let's discuss the pros and cons of this approach and share best practices for ensuring the safety of our digital assets.

Looking forward to your insights!

You can still lose it

The amount of people that cannot understand that memorizing it does not imply burning the paper backup is scaring in a sub like this.

I'm going to sell all my bag and buy a T-BONDS

It's a top signal
