you might have a key logger on your pc, so the password manager is uselss
never enter a seed phrase into a computer, always write them down fromm a hw wallet
there is no real secure option for pc only unless you formatted, linux distro, crypto wallet software install with no internet, create the wallet, write the seed phrase down, format the drive / never use it again
hw wallets just make this brain dead easy though, why is this still a conversation in 2023?
for some reason i dont like hardware wallets too, the following is "my way" to store my eth:
why dont you like hw wallets?
with your other steps, everything would have been fine, but you connected your pc unpatched / no virus scanner to the internet to dl metamask to create a wallet, and yeah its windows..
how ever unlikely it may be, you may have been subjected to a virus / keylogger while your unpatched windows machine got metamask... at hte time of the install
even if there was a 0.00001% chance your pc was compromised. imagine you had your life savings on a potentially compromised wallet where some bad actor had a keylogger on your pass phrase. sure its been 2 years, but maybe the hackers are waiting
you could extrapolate this to dev in general with AI
if youre not already senior its going to be tough
source, been a dev 15 years+ i get chatgpt to do 30-90% of my work dependent on what im doing e.g. i never write a mongo query manually anymore.
AI as it stands, is weeding out juniors as it makes my job more productive, i know how to guide it, a junior dev with min experience does not. i dont say that with any arrogance, my days are probably numbered as it is
chatgpt can probably do chain analysis better than you could / write the code to do it
