<![CDATA[Test your backup before you need it — do a recovery drill]]>You wrote down your seed phrase (right?). But have you ever confirmed it actually works? A backup you've never tested is a backup you're only hoping is correct.

Do a quick recovery drill:

  • In a wallet app, use the "restore / import from recovery phrase" option with your phrase.
  • Confirm it loads the right wallet/address.
  • Then remove and set things back up as normal.

Why it's worth 10 minutes:

  • Catches a mis-written word, a wrong order, or a missing word — while it's still fixable.
  • Proves your device isn't the single point of failure. Phone dies? You can restore.

The worst time to discover a bad backup is the day you actually need it. Test it now, on a calm afternoon, and never worry about it again.
