Paranoia is a survival trait in the trenches. Here’s what Trady does on its side, and what you need to do on yours.

What Trady does

  • Non-custodial by architecture. Wallet keys are managed by Privy — the same embedded-wallet infrastructure used across major consumer crypto apps. Keys are sharded and reassembled only during signing in secure hardware. Trady never sees or stores your full key. Details: Custody, Key Export & Import.
  • Independent security audit. Trady’s infrastructure is undergoing an audit by Hexens, a security firm that has audited major protocols.
  • Lean pipeline. The fewer parties that see your transaction before it lands, the smaller the attack surface — Trady’s execution path is built on that principle. See Transaction Lifecycle.
  • Scoped signing permissions. Trading operations are authorized through session-scoped keys — approving a trade doesn’t hand the app a blank check.
  • No God mode. After the industry learned the hard way what happens when employees can look up user positions: internal access to user data is restricted and logged.

What you do

The most common way traders lose funds is not a protocol hack — it’s signing the wrong thing on the wrong site.
  1. Bookmark the official links. Type URLs, don’t click them from DMs or search-ad results.
  2. Nobody legit DMs first. “Trady support” sliding into your DMs = scammer. Every time.
  3. Your seed phrase / private key is for you only. Not for “verification”, not for “wallet sync”, not for support. Anyone asking = thief.
  4. Separate trading from browsing. Keep your Trady trading wallet off external mint/claim/airdrop sites. Use a burner wallet with pocket change for that. See Wallets.
  5. Check what you sign. A “claim” that asks for token approvals or a setAuthority signature is a drainer.
  6. Fake tokens land in wallets constantly. A random token appearing in your wallet is spam — don’t interact with it, don’t visit the URL in its name. Just hide it.

Mini-FAQ

Is there 2FA? Your sign-in method (email code / social OAuth) gates account access; signing keys never leave secure infrastructure. What happens if Trady gets hacked? Funds sit in non-custodial wallets whose keys Trady doesn’t hold — the worst-case blast radius is fundamentally different from a CEX. Export your keys and you hold the ultimate fallback. What if I get drained? Blockchain transactions are irreversible — no one, including Trady, can claw funds back. Report it to support so we can flag addresses, and rotate to fresh wallets immediately.
