Security Best Practices

Protect your account and crypto assets from day one

Enable 2FA

Two-factor authentication adds an extra layer of security. Use an authenticator app rather than SMS for maximum protection.

Use Strong Passwords

Create a unique, complex password with uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and special characters. Never reuse passwords.

Beware of Phishing

Always verify URLs and email addresses. The official platform will never ask for your password via email.

Whitelist Addresses

Use withdrawal address whitelisting to ensure funds can only be sent to pre-approved addresses.

Monitor Activity

Regularly review your account activity and enable notifications for all account actions and login attempts.

Keep Devices Secure

Use updated antivirus software, avoid public WiFi for trading, and keep your operating system updated.
