In the world of decentralized finance (DeFi), your asset balance is highly confidential personal information. However, have you noticed the risk of opening your crypto wallet in public places, where curious eyes might inadvertently see the value of your holdings? This lack of privacy is not only uncomfortable but also carries unnecessary security risks. That’s when you need to hide balance.
Worry no more! Herond Wallet provides an extremely simple solution: the Hide Balance feature. This is the secret that helps you proactively protect your privacy and assets. With this feature, you can optimize your privacy instantly with just a single tap. Let’s explore the steps to activate the Hide Balance feature on Herond Wallet so that all your transactions remain safe and discreet!
Understanding the Risks of Displaying Balances Publicly
Displaying your asset balance publicly, even unintentionally, can lead to several unforeseen risks:
Physical Risk
- Risk of Prying Eyes in Public: When you are transacting or checking your wallet at a coffee shop, airport, or subway, those nearby can easily see the asset figures on your screen. This information can turn you into a target for tracking or device theft.
- Exposure of Personal Financial Information: The balance figure is highly sensitive data. If others know exactly how much you own, this information could be exploited for manipulation or harassment later on.
Psychological Risk (Social Engineering)
- Attracting Unnecessary Attention: Displaying a large balance can draw negative attention. You might be targeted by scammers or individuals with malicious intent who seek to approach you via social media or other deceptive methods.
- Becoming a Target for Scams: Based on the balance figures they’ve seen, malicious actors can craft personalized scam scenarios, making you more likely to trust fake investment offers or assistance.
Privacy is Paramount
- Right to Control Personal Information: Your asset balance is confidential personal information, relating to your financial decisions and future plans. Users have the absolute right not to disclose this information to anyone.
- Maintaining Transaction Discretion: Even if you don’t hold a massive balance, keeping your financial information private helps you maintain professionalism and discretion in all cryptocurrency-related activities.
