  • Transaction verification: Always double‑check the recipient address and network before sending.
  • Revoke approvals: Regularly revoke token allowances via Trust Wallet’s “Security” section or blockchain explorers.
  • Hardware wallet: For large holdings, consider pairing Trust Wallet with a Ledger or SafePal.
