Risks to lose all your assets

Both MetaMask and Ronin wallets give you a 12 word seed phrase when you first set them up. It is very important you save these 12 word seed phrases and you know you can find them when you need to. You will absolutely 100% need it one day. If the device, computer or phone, gets lost, broken or you just want to upgrade to a newer model you will need the 12 word seed phrase to import it onto your new device.

Make sure your 12 seeds words are safe. DO NOT save those words in your computer because a hacker may steel your wallet information. DO NOT lose them. DO NOT share seed words with anybody. DO write down all words and keep it in the safe spot.

Be aware this is a brand-new technology in the world, if you lose these seed words or somebody steals them, nobody can help you to get back your money.
