How safe is your crypto really? And what happens when your private keys fall into the wrong hands? 
Journalist and crypto commentator Monty Munford joins Adrian on this week’s episode of the Big Tech Show. 
Adrian and Monty talk about how he first got into cryptocurrency, why he chose Ethereum over Bitcoin, and the moment he discovered £25,000 worth of crypto had vanished from his wallet. Monty explains the mistakes he made storing his private keys, how hackers may have accessed them, and what the loss taught him about online security. They also discuss how that stolen crypto would be worth far more today — and why his story is a cautionary tale for anyone dabbling in digital assets.
