Important Instructions To Secure Your Wallet

  • Always use a password to secure your account on a wallet (any wallet).
  • Remember your secret key and store it in a secure location. Losing this secret key might result in the loss of your account and the funds in it.
  • No party in the world can reset or retrieve the secret key and neither can be held responsible for losing funds at any time.
  • We highly recommend writing the key down rather than storing digitally.
