Hardware Wallet is the safest way for long-term storage. Your private keys are stored on a physical device isolated from the Internet.
2. Enable two-factor authentication (2FA)
Use a 2FA app like Google Authenticator and not SMS which is vulnerable to SIM-swap attacks.
3. Do not share the Seed Phrase
Your Seed Phrase is the key to all assets. No one, including support staff, will ever ask for it.
4. Check addresses before sending
Always make sure the destination address is correct. Use a small trial transaction before sending large amounts.
5. Beware of phishing
Never click on suspicious links. Always go directly to the official website via bookmark.
6. We update software regularly
Wallets, operating systems and browsers — we update everything regularly to close security holes.
7. Use strong and unique passwords
Each account needs a unique password. Use a password manager.

Keep backups of the Seed Phrase in secure physical locations.

Stay up to date with the latest scams and security technologies.
