  Using a public Wi-Fi network for crypto transactions can expose your sensitive information to potential hackers. These networks are often unsecured, making it easier for cybercriminals to intercept your data and gain unauthorized access to your cryptocurrency wallet. It is recommended to use a secure and private network when conducting crypto transactions to minimize the risk of data breaches and unauthorized access.

  When you use a public Wi-Fi network for crypto transactions, you run the risk of falling victim to a man-in-the-middle attack. This is when a hacker intercepts the communication between your device and the cryptocurrency exchange, allowing them to steal your login credentials and gain control of your funds. To protect yourself, consider using a virtual private network (VPN) or conducting transactions over a cellular network instead.
