Still relying on traditional SMS for your daily conversations? Time for a reality check.

Your standard text messages on iPhone or Android aren't encrypted end-to-end. That means carriers, potential interceptors, and various third parties could theoretically access your chats. Not exactly the privacy you'd want in 2025.

Why does this matter now more than ever? With crypto adoption growing and more people discussing sensitive financial info over messages, security can't be an afterthought anymore. One leaked conversation about wallet seeds or exchange credentials could mean serious consequences.

The solution? Switch to encrypted messaging platforms. Apps with proper end-to-end encryption ensure only you and your recipient can read what's sent. No middlemen, no data harvesting, no surveillance risks.

Think about it - you wouldn't leave your wallet open on a public table. Why treat your digital conversations any differently? The tools exist. The technology works. What's stopping you from making the switch today?

I've known for a long time that SMS is insecure, but I was just too lazy to switch... Are everyone trading cryptocurrencies now using encrypted messaging?

Haha, still using SMS? It's about time to change --- In the crypto circle, those still chatting via SMS are really asking for trouble --- Handshake, I’ve been using encrypted communication all along. How can wallet information be sent in plaintext? --- Exactly, a leaked seed phrase and it's all over. Not worth risking it --- It's no secret anymore that carriers can see your messages... --- Wake up, everyone. By 2025, those trusting SMS encryption should reflect on it --- Wallet + SMS? That combination is just ridiculous --- Mostly, people just haven't realized the risks and continue to slack off

Should have switched a long time ago. What are people still using SMS for? --- You're discussing wallet seed phrases over SMS? This guy really wants to get hacked. --- Honestly, it's no secret that carriers can see all your info. --- Only after switching to Signal did I realize what real privacy is. SMS is totally outdated. --- Wait, isn't iPhone's iMessage end-to-end encrypted? Why do we still need to switch? --- A bunch of people keep shouting about privacy, yet still use the worst transmission method out there. Where's the logic? --- There are so many encrypted messaging apps, but no one uses them. It's really baffling. --- I just want to know, who is still using SMS in 2025 to discuss sensitive information? --- That's true, but in reality, most people just don't care who can see their chat history. --- You definitely shouldn't share wallet info carelessly, agreed. But SMS isn't really the main issue, is it?

nah smh why are people still using SMS to talk about crypto... seriously, time to wake up --- You keep your wallet in your pocket but still dare to chat without encryption? Makes perfect sense --- End-to-end encryption isn’t even hard. How lazy do you have to be to still use SMS --- Honestly, using SMS for wallet seeds is just asking for trouble --- Fun fact: most people have no idea who’s reading their messages... kinda creepy --- But how many people in China will actually switch? They talk a good game but still use the same old stuff --- Encrypted messaging should’ve gone mainstream ages ago. Why do people still need convincing?

Talking about coins every day, but still using SMS? Seriously, wake up, everyone. --- Honestly, sending wallet seeds over SMS? Are you tired of living? --- Switching to an encrypted chat app isn't hard, why be lazy? --- It's 2025 and people still don't know that carriers can eavesdrop? --- If your private key gets leaked once, it's game over—what's the point, bro? --- SMS is really done, you must use end-to-end encrypted tools. --- Always talking about security but still discussing financial info over SMS—what's that about? --- Transfer details are exposed in SMS—making money is fast, losing it is even faster. --- One sentence: If it's not encrypted, don't talk crypto.
