Security for crypto withdrawal addresses
Crypto withdrawals require careful checks because transactions on blockchain networks are usually irreversible.
Before withdrawing crypto
- Confirm the asset and network match the receiving wallet.
- Check the full destination address, not only the first or last characters.
- Be suspicious if someone gives you an urgent address by chat, phone, or social media.
- Send a small test amount when appropriate.
- Do not withdraw to an address provided by someone claiming to protect your account.
