I often think that things like private keys and exchange passwords should be redundantly backed up in multiple locations. After all, these are so important that if they are stored in just one place—for example, a hardware wallet—security is maintained, but what if something happens to that backup? For instance, hardware wallet damage, water or fire disasters, accidental loss by the custodian, and so on. What should be done?
Here, I want to discuss this mainly from the perspective of general users, not professional large institutions. Large organizations naturally have a backup system in place, but how can ordinary users safely perform multiple redundant backups? Has everyone thought about this? If you have good ideas, feel free to share and discuss, especially how to address the issue of “accidental loss by the custodian.” I hope to hear more opinions.
Even if the custodian has made many backups and stored them in various places, making it very secure, what if they themselves encounter an incident? How can trusted individuals find and access these backups? How should a contingency plan be designed? $BNB {future}(BNBUSDT)
