Support & Web Team

Security Reminder: Remember to follow good security practices and actively scan for viruses and spyware. A SmartCash user lost 9 Million SMART because of spyware on their computer that recorded their password to steal their funds. Protect yourself by running active antivirus, using a dedicated computer for cryptocurrency wallets, and using the on-screen keyboard to enter passwords. And remember, never share your private key or wallet.dat file and keep it encrypted with a strong password. We encourage everyone to assess their security (and backup) practices and improve them.
