Credential role
Recovery material is a control credential and cannot be treated like a resettable password. This topic should be understood through both user workflow and verifiable on-chain results. The wallet interface helps with context, but the network, address, contract and transaction state remain the source of truth.
In practice, combine interface information with data you can verify on-chain. If anything is unclear, stop before a high-value action and confirm the network, address, contract or transaction state.
Offline storage
Prefer offline backups while considering physical loss and access risk. This topic should be understood through both user workflow and verifiable on-chain results. The wallet interface helps with context, but the network, address, contract and transaction state remain the source of truth.
In a multi-chain environment, the network name, native gas asset, block explorer and contract address create the decision context. Icons, symbols and screenshots are only supporting cues.
Refuse requests
Stop any flow that asks you to send a seed phrase or private key. This topic should be understood through both user workflow and verifiable on-chain results. The wallet interface helps with context, but the network, address, contract and transaction state remain the source of truth.
Seed phrases and private keys remain under user control, and official staff will never request them. Any website or person asking for recovery material or verification codes should not be trusted.
Recovery environment
Use trusted software and disable screen sharing or remote access during recovery. This topic should be understood through both user workflow and verifiable on-chain results. The wallet interface helps with context, but the network, address, contract and transaction state remain the source of truth.
When a third-party DApp, bridge or smart contract is involved, consider permission scope, contract risk, congestion and service dependencies. Confirmed on-chain transactions usually cannot be reversed by a wallet.
Backup balance
Additional copies improve resilience but also create more exposure points. This topic should be understood through both user workflow and verifiable on-chain results. The wallet interface helps with context, but the network, address, contract and transaction state remain the source of truth.
After the action, keep the transaction hash and review confirmations to build independent verification habits. Revisit persistent connections and approvals when they are no longer needed.
Review after the action
After completing the task, compare the on-chain state with what you expected. Network, transaction hash, block height, confirmation count and approval status can reveal display delays, network mistakes or permissions that remain active longer than intended. Security is an ongoing review process, not a one-time setting.
