How to Store USDT Safely

Custodial balances vs self-custody wallets, and basic hygiene for recovery phrases.
You can keep USDT in your IndX app balance (custodial) or withdraw it to a wallet you control. Self-custody puts you in charge of the keys and the recovery phrase.
Never share your recovery phrase with anyone, including anyone claiming to be IndX support. Balances on any platform are not bank deposits and are not covered by deposit insurance.
When withdrawing, select the correct network, paste carefully, and send a small test amount first.
