Growth is important in everything we do, as growth surfaces in human and make positive changes so is growth important on our hive account, and the more growth on our hive account the more stable and durable it becomes, and the more value it gets, the more visibility it gets, the more important it becomes to us.
with time it becomes an asset and a very important type of savings because it took time to be built
Our hive account is as important as our bank account because it holds our money, savings, and assets, and all of these take time to be gathered.
One good reason why our security online and on-chain over our account is not to be ignored but rather taken up.
Your security over your account determines how far your account survives without being compromised.
Hive account requires keys and most times we are given options to store our keys online truth is stored keys online are always prone to be compromised and a compromised account loses all of its value.
This can be very painful and with so much loss because it takes a lot of work to build accounts
I don't advise people to store keys online to prevent being compromised.
Most people enjoy storing keys online all because of the stress of going back to copy and paste when needed.
No matter the provider used,storing keys online should not be done.
There are several ways to protect your account they involve
Not storing keys online
Refrain from clicking unnecessary links
and use of a recovery account
A recovery account is another way to protect or recover your account when stolen or hacked
it involves the use of someone you know and trust, someone technologically inclined, someone that can be contacted offline and outside hive to help validate when a recovery is needed.
This method can only be used to get a stolen or hacked account back.
Sometimes last year friend lost his account and this method came to his rescue.
security online is very important and a necessity because this protects your hard-earned work over your account and saves your account from being compromised,
and most importantly assure you of waking to see your account the next day.
