This has been one of the wrong mind set the new beginner in the cryptocurrency space are  failing to understand, the backing up seedphase of a wallet on google drive is like making it more faster an easier for scammer to attack the wallet, from  the less research i have made so far on this i have come to the conclusion that saving up wallet seedphase to any Google  drive device's help and make it easier  for scammer to hack the device in other to get the seedphase,70% of victim's in the cryptocurrency community are facing this  current situation and are  suffering from the hackers here and there, it high time people start saving up there seedphase on local writing methods like papers, many people are having this feelings that Google drive can't be hacked but to me i guess prevention is better than cure.
Why on earth will someone have to backup their sed phrase on Google drive? I know that sometimes we might be tempted to back our seed phrase on Google drive or other online storage but that is never a good way to store seed phrase. Storing seed phrase on Google drive can be susceptible to attack which could cause huge losses.
Whether you are newbie or not, it is better to store your seed phrase on a hardware, it could be in your closed jotter or drive which must be kept in a place when people would not be able to guess whether that could be something valuable there. Taking amount precautions to ensure that our wallet seed phrase is keep from the thought of people is safer than trying to store it in a software like the Google drive.
