Engaging in the world of cryptocurrencies requires a mindful approach to ensure the security and integrity of your assets. Here are key best practices to enhance your crypto experience.
Key best practices
Do not connect from occasional devices
Avoid connecting to your accounts from occasional devices to mitigate security risks. Unknown devices may lack essential security measures, increasing the likelihood of unauthorized access and potential breaches. Stick to trusted and secure devices to ensure the safety of your digital assets and personal information.
IMPORTANT
Never share your password with anyone. It's important to note that Flyingfox employees will never request your password.

- Verify the recovery emails or phone numbers associated with your account are under your control.
- Check the list of recognized devices in your account settings, investigating any unfamiliar ones.
Activate 2-Factor authentication
By activating 2-factor authentication like Google Authenticator, you can fortify your account with Time-based One Time Passwords (TOTP). This strategic approach significantly decreases the likelihood of your account being compromised, even in cases where your email have been hacked.
SECURITY TIP
We strongly recommend setting up a 2FA (two-factor authentication) app for an added shield against any unwanted visitors trying to sneak into your account.
