People fear sophisticated hacks and overlook simple risks like SIM swaps and social engineering.

North Korea likely isn't targeting your Bitcoin, but a Minecraft teen might be. ⛏️

Props to Casa (npub1cas…tzdc) for zooming out of zero-day attacks and zeroing in on everyday threats.

Have you locked down your phone number? Casa can help.

SIM swaps are a huge security hole for bitcoiners. Millions in assets have been stolen over the years, but you can take action now. Casa delivers security for bitcoiners, and we’ve partnered with Efani to help you take control.

First, what’s a SIM swap? It’s a sneaky tactic where a hacker can trick your carrier, hijack your phone number, bypass your 2FA, and drain your important accounts including exchanges.

Efani prevents unauthorized SIM swaps, keeping your phone number secure even if a hacker tries to swap it. Their 11-layer client authentication protocol and mandatory 14-day cooling off period deliver comprehensive protection against unauthorized port requests 💪

Now, Casa members can lock down their phone numbers and enjoy a discount on their Efani membership (woo, save some bitcoin! 🥳).

Enjoy the peace of mind of making your mobile security as robust as your Casa vault.
