How do I secure my Zucoin wallet?

Securing your Zucoin wallet is mainly about protecting your device, keeping the wallet app current, and keeping your backup file private.

The wallet gives you direct control of your Zucoin, so recovery details should be treated as sensitive information.

Practical security steps

Keep your phone or computer locked with a strong passcode, password, or biometric setting.

Use the latest version of the Zucoin wallet app.

Back up your wallet and keep the backup somewhere safe and private.

Never share your wallet backup file, private keys, or recovery information.

Only share your public wallet address when someone needs to send Zucoin to you.

Check the receiver address and transaction details before confirming a transfer.

If you see an old app warning

If the wallet says the installed app is from a very old source or needs to be replaced, use the current wallet app from wallet.zucoins.com.

Make sure you have a current backup before removing, resetting, or reinstalling anything connected to a wallet that holds Zucoin.
