Pro Tips for Safe Transfers

Always Test First

Send a small amount ($10) first to verify everything works.

Triple-Check Address

Copy-paste addresses, never type manually. Verify first & last 6 characters.

Match Networks

Sending network on Binance MUST match receiving network on MetaMask.

Be Patient

If transfer takes longer than expected, check tx hash on block explorer.
