Questions and answers
Does the wallet custody my assets?
Self-custody means users retain responsibility for controlling credentials. Actual key handling depends on the software implementation.
Does a wallet always need internet access?
Fetching chain data and broadcasting transactions requires connectivity; recovery backups can be stored offline.
How should I store a recovery phrase?
Write down the words in order offline, avoid screenshots and cloud uploads, limit access and understand the recovery process.
What is the difference between a key and a phrase?
Private keys authorize signatures; a recovery phrase may derive multiple keys under a wallet standard. Both require protection.
How do I restore on a new phone?
Confirm your backup and any passphrase, recover on a trusted device and compare addresses and networks.
What matters when adding USDT?
Check the exact network, token contract and recipient support. Identical ticker symbols are not enough.
What should I check before a transfer?
Review the chain, destination address, asset, amount, fees and any spending permissions.
How do I install more safely?
Verify the domain independently, review permissions and updates, and avoid unsolicited remote installers.
How can I spot phishing?
Check the full domain, refuse sites requesting recovery phrases and scrutinize seemingly free signature requests.
