What to do after a crypto wallet compromise
Practical steps to preserve evidence and reduce further risk.
Preserve evidence
Save transaction hashes, addresses, timestamps, screenshots and relevant messages.
Protect remaining assets
If a seed phrase or private key may be compromised, do not keep using the same wallet for new funds.
Review the entry point
Record recent dApp connections, signatures, browser extensions, phishing sites and other actions that may explain the incident.
Avoid recovery scams
Do not share seed phrases, private keys, 2FA codes or remote device access with people promising guaranteed recovery.
Need a review of a specific transaction?
A short description and public blockchain data are enough for an initial assessment. Never send seed phrases or private keys.
