What is a self-custody wallet?
A self-custody wallet stores your keys on your device instead of at a company. Axxion never holds your crypto — you sign every transaction yourself, and no one can freeze or move your funds.
New to DeFi
Everything you need to understand your wallet before you move real money — no jargon.
Your recovery phrase is your account
The 12-word recovery phrase recreates your wallet on any device. Write it down offline, never photograph it, and never type it into a website, DM or support chat. Anyone with the phrase owns the funds.
Tokens, networks and gas
The same token can exist on several networks (for example USDT on Ethereum ERC20 and Tron TRC20). Always match the network with the sender or receiver. Every network charges a small 'gas' fee in its native coin.
Swapping and trading
A swap exchanges one token for another at the live market rate. Prices move while you confirm, so a small slippage tolerance protects you from getting a much worse rate than quoted.
What is DeFi?
Decentralised finance replaces banks with public smart contracts for lending, trading and earning yield. It's open to anyone, but there is no customer-service desk and no deposit insurance — research before you commit funds.
Staying safe
Assume any 'giveaway', urgent DM or unexpected support agent is a scam. Review token approvals regularly, use biometric app lock and two-factor authentication, and start with a small test transaction on new addresses.
