What to do

How it is checked: Six correct answers in one attempt.. Nothing is self-reported.

The questions

1. Support asks for your recovery phrase to restore your wallet. What do you do?
Why this matters

A recovery phrase IS the wallet. Anyone who has it owns everything in it, permanently. No exchange, no wallet maker, no support desk and no service — including this one — will ever ask for it.

2. A site asks you to approve unlimited spending of a token. What is the risk?
Why this matters

An approval is a permission with no expiry. If the contract is malicious, or is drained later, the permission is still there.

3. A token has 92% of supply in one wallet that is not the curve or the pool. What does it mean?
Why this matters

Concentration is not a prediction, it is a capability. One holder that size can end the price at a time of their choosing.

4. Somebody sends you a token you never bought. What is the safe move?
Why this matters

Unsolicited tokens are often bait: interacting with them is the point. Holding one costs nothing; approving or swapping one can cost everything.

5. You are about to send a transaction and your wallet shows an unfamiliar contract. What now?
Why this matters

The wallet prompt is the last place you can say no. Rejecting costs nothing — a signed transaction cannot be taken back.

6. How much should a first purchase be?
Why this matters

Most launches go to zero. That is the base rate, not pessimism. Size the position so that the normal outcome does not hurt.
