✦ GUIDE / Backup and recovery

Restoring a wallet safely

Restore only in a trusted environment, confirm the backup and wallet type, then verify the correct networks after restoration.

🔐 Stay in control✅ Review each step

Protect the phrase throughout recovery

Check readability and word order, then store copies appropriately without creating an obvious single point of failure.

A secure workflow is built on deliberate checks: understand what is being requested, confirm the correct network or device, and never reveal recovery secrets to another person.

⚠️ Important boundary

Never paste your recovery phrase or private key into an unfamiliar website, form, or chat.
