🔑 TWO ACCOUNTS AREN’T ALWAYS TWO INDEPENDENT WALLETS
In MetaMask, several accounts can be derived from the same Secret Recovery Phrase.
If that phrase leaks, every account derived from it is exposed. Renaming an account or creating “Account 2” doesn’t fix that.
Before separating savings from experiments, check whether the accounts share a recovery phrase. Never paste it into a chat to check.
