- Double-check URLs and never enter credentials from unsolicited links or emails.
Getting started — safe steps

- Use the watchlist and alerts to track price movement and key news events.
Common questions
Can I move crypto off the platform? Yes — withdraw to an external wallet at any time. Verify network compatibility and double-check addresses when sending funds.
What is custody? Custody describes how private keys are stored: custodial providers hold keys securely on users' behalf while self-custody gives users full control (and responsibility).
Note: For account access always use verified official channels. This page is informational — it does not collect credentials.
