We're back to our regular programming. Check out our classes this June. We have a full load from Web 3 101 and Web 3 102 to Solana Security. We're carrying the momentum from our latest funding round to deliver free, high-quality crypto security education to you. Nobody does it better than the folks and contributors at Boring Security. 😉 Sign-up for the classes in our Discord (link in bio).

Your Discord 2FA is probably weaker than you think. Let's rank your Discord 2FA options from terrible to unbreakable: ❌ 1. SMS 2FA (The Worst Option) If you are still receiving 6-digit codes via text message, you are vulnerable. SIM-swapping is incredibly common, and hackers can easily trick cell carriers into redirecting your texts to their phones. ⚠️ 2. Authenticator Apps (Better, but watch out for Cloud Sync) Apps like Google Authenticator or Authy are a massive step up. However, many of them now default to "Cloud Sync." If you use an app, disable cloud sync or keep it locked behind biometric security. 🛡️ 3. Passkeys & Physical Devices (The Gold Standard) Discord supports Passkeys, which are completely phishing-resistant. Because they tie a cryptographic key directly to your hardware, a fake login website cannot trick you into giving up your credentials. 🚨The absolute most important step: YOUR BACKUP CODES None of this matters if you lose your phone or security key. Go to your Discord Settings > My Account > View Backup Codes. Write them down on paper and hide them offline. If you get locked out of your account and don't have these codes, Discord Support cannot bypass 2FA to recover your account. Take 2 minutes to do this today.

Would you attend a Boring Security class here? 👀

Officially Recognized by Opensea 🫡 Now our contributors can bid farewell to Discord tickets teaching people how to "Unhide" their BSec NFTs! 😂

Honored to take part in the round and stoked that Boring Security qualified for over $11,000 in matching funds from The DAO! A big thanks to everyone who donated and with these we'll be able to keep the dream alive for months to come!

As a reminder, our collab class with @BoringSecurity is tonight, 8pm EST. Don't be an Orange background and show up late. Safe. Secure. Aquamarine. The tenets of a good club.

Security matters. That’s why we teamed up with @boringsecurity to host a FREE security class to help keep Apes safe. In fact, we made SEC101 one of the required quests for new club members looking to qualify for the Welcome Package. Join us this Thursday at 8PM ET w/ @nft_dreww & @crypto_kfx. Reserve your spot in Boring Security Discord now ⬇️

Over 100 students tuned in to our classes last week! 💪 Glad these folks from @Abstract_Eco and @pudgypenguins took the initiative to learn the best practices in crypto and social media security. Education will always be your strongest weapon in keeping your crypto and NFTs safe.

There are still a few days left to donate in the ETH Security round: qf.giveth.io/project/boring-… Right now we are #13 of 133 projects in terms of donated amounts. Let's break into the top 10! Remember for maximum donation effect, be sure to donate to other projects as well!

⏱️⏳ Less than 4 hours remain to donate. We are currently in 4th place! Donations are now possible to be made and matched using ApeCoin on ETH Mainnet as well for those that still have some ethereum:0x4d224452801aced8b2f0aebe155379bb5d594381 they haven’t bridged!

made my donation to @_SEAL_Org & @boringsecurity last thing anyone wants to think about is security; the work they both do for the space is unprecedented 🙏 i suggest you support with a follow & check their pages to donate via @Giveth - they are matching donations stay safe 🦊

What a great show today! We talked with @nft_dreww about security and @Giveth campaign! I donated to @boringsecurity , @nft_dreww, and @wiimee. If you can, pls donate too. Giveth matches all donations. So a $10 spend is over $100 donated. Link for the whole space in comments👇🏻

MeebCo donated yesterday's royalties to @boringsecurity's Giveth campaign to show our appreciation for the work they do to keep our web3 family safe. We encourage every large NFT project to consider doing the same.

We are overwhelmed with the support of the last 24 hours. As the final day of the round approaches, we want to reiterate something we said on last night's @Giveth spaces: Educators and Sleuths don't get the love they deserve in the Ethereum Security space. Full Stop. In most public goods funding programs, devs and tooling get prioritized heavily. For many of us, this is the first time we've broken into a mainstream Ethereum Security funding round. Foundation Funding applications? Denied. L2 Grants? Only if you're lucky (Thanks Arbitrum <3)! Everything else? No Chance... While we appreciate your support and continued donations, we want to take this time to shout out a few folks in the QF round that have been doing great work who could use a little boost. If you've already donated to us, Something as small as $5 goes even further when you donate to 1-2 more projects. For them and for us. Don't know who? We got you fam! Check out these 5: @WiiMee - qf.giveth.io/project/wiimee-… An instructor at Boring Security for years. A contributor with RevokeCash and ChainPatrol, and an ETH Security Badge holder, he needs no introduction. Donate! @nft_dreww - qf.giveth.io/project/drew-se… Another instructor, Discord Auditor, and all around security rockstar. If you've been at all curious about Web3 Security as a normal user, you've no doubt seen his content! Easy dono! @somaxbt - qf.giveth.io/project/somaxbt… If Educators are the teachers, Sleuthers are the Sheriffs. Soma is a mix of both with a huge guide on how to get into Sleuthing, while also doing hugely valuable investigations of his own! Donate!💸🙏 @SpecterAnalyst - qf.giveth.io/project/specter… Providing great call-outs to hacks and bad behavior, often exposing large events before anyone else. Donate! @tanuki42_ - qf.giveth.io/project/tanuki4… Writer of the sentence: "Since 2025 I have proactively notified 30 crypto companies that they had unknowingly hired one or multiple North Korean IT workers (my record is 6!)." - Ya, that's a dono! Anyway, there are so many great projects on there as well, but we specifically wanted to focus on folks who probably won't get another funding round for a long time, so need to make the most of this round! This is the best way to show them that they matter, and allows the space as a whole to continue benefiting from their great work, allowing them to sharpen their tools to give us even more!

We are without words. Thank you Opensea! This kind of support is more than we could have ever dreamed of. I guess that means it's time to dream bigger! Sails up! ⛵️

So many students attended today's Web3 Security 101 class that we can't even fit them all in one screenshot. Free education. Free NFTs / SBTs! Hope you all did well on the quiz :) Thanks to @beausecurity and @Berko_Crypto with the Pudgy Penguin team for organizing!

0/ Clear signing is now live. An open standard to end blind signing, making human-readable transactions default. This effort brings a major UX and Security upgrade to transaction signing on Ethereum.

consider donating to @boringsecurity there’s a great matching program rn that amplifies every donation they do a lot to keep our space safe
