Dear Crypto Enthusiasts, delete your clipboard history once in a while
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>By default Windows 10 saves the last 25 items you copied. These items might include wallet adresses you don't want anybody to know, like your metamask wallet address for example.</p> <p>So do yourself a favor and delete these items from your clipboard history after every time you copied and pasted a wallet address. To do this press Windows+V and it shows you all the entries where you can manually delete items.</p> <p>If you don't want Windows to save your clipboard history, turn it off completely in the settings. Just go to Windows settings -> System - Clipboard and turn it off there.</p> <p>A lot of people don't know of this vulnerability and it seems to be easy to read out for hackers.</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/pukem0n"> /u/pukem0n </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/mzr4dd/dear_crypto_enthusiasts_delete_your_clipboard/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/mzr4dd/dear_crypto_enthusiasts_delete_your_clipboard/">[comments]</a></span>Kind Regards R
