If you want the you two years later to appreciate what you did today, then...
(Not calling any bottoms. No one can. But try to adopt a yearly horizon.)
Securing the backup seed phrase is hard.
Can't have someone else read it and say, "oh, that's a nice seed phrase".
Can't have it destroyed by fire, flood, etc.
Can't have a hacker gain access to it.
And most importantly, can't lose it yourself.
With all the talk on hard wallet saftey, I'll share my own experience
My hardware wallet didn't get hacked. It just stopped working. Nearly cost me everything in it.
I had BTC in an old Trezor, multi-sig setup. Ran a firmware update. Afterward I couldn't sign transactions anymore.
The only thing that saved me was having the seed written down somewhere else.
Ledger has a different failure mode. The screens on old Nanos fade over time.
No readable screen means you can't enter your PIN and no access to the device.
Neither of these is a hack. The hardware just stops cooperating.
That's the part you don't plan for.
So know that you could also be at risk of losing your Bitcoin and crypto if you have it stored in old models of Trezor or Ledger wallets.
Make sure to keep your devices updated and double check that you have the seedphrase backed somewhere. I recommend multi-sig also for security.

Every day at Binance, we see millions of users interacting with digital assets in different ways.
One thing is becoming increasingly clear: Crypto adoption isn't one global story - it's a collection of regional ones.
Three trends that caught my attention. ↓
The cover photo of Freedom of Money book (and my current avatar) was photographed by Platon. It was one funky photo shoot. There was an interesting conversation as well. Watch the video. (Filmed 5 months ago).
Robotics is next.
Both deal count and investment amounts are skyrocketing per pitchbook March data (source: a16z)
Good thing is: the same AI DC exposure often has cross-exposure to humanoid ramp.
Like DRAM/NAND with memory (on humanoid inference/storage) or DFB lasers with photonics (FMCW LiDAR vision/sensing).
Right now most exposure is upstream component parts… or programs within large players like $AMZN or $TSLA.
So global IPO season H2 into 2027 for pure play humanoids/robotics companies is going to be fun.
