Want to dodge scams in 2026? Here's what actually works:

Spend 40 seconds running these 4 quick checks before you move any crypto. Seriously—it's the difference between keeping your stack intact and losing thousands to a rug pull.

The pattern is always the same: hype builds, you FOMO in, then suddenly liquidity vanishes. But you can spot the red flags way earlier if you know what to look for.

Don't skip the verification step. Most people don't, which is exactly why they get burned. Take the time now or pay the price later.

How much money can you save in 40 seconds? Really, I just didn't develop this habit, and that's why I suffered heavy losses.

Save your life in 40 seconds? I think it's unlikely; most people can't stick to this process at all.

Can 40 seconds save a life? I don't believe it. The key is whether you can really withstand FOMO.

40 seconds can really save lives. I used to skip this step and go all-in directly, ending up with nothing left.

40-second verification? Brother, you're right, it's this habit that has saved my wallet several times.

Can 40 seconds really save lives? Last year, I spent 40 minutes and still got cut. The key is that most people can't tell what truly is a red flag at all.
