Shield
Account protection for your own wallet: every payment from your Shield needs your authenticator code and a code sent to your Telegram.
Shield is not available yet. We will let you know when you can turn it on.
Log in to set up Shield.
1. Choose the wallet to protect
Every payment from your Shield needs your own wallet and your two Shield codes, so a stolen key alone cannot move your funds.
2. Add Shield to your authenticator app
Scan this code with Google Authenticator, 1Password, Authy or similar, or type the key.

3. Connect Telegram
Open our Shield bot in Telegram and press Start. Every payment code is sent there, every emergency withdrawal is announced there, and you can freeze your Shield from it at any time.

4. Create your Shield on
One transaction from your own wallet creates your Shield at the address above. It costs a small network fee.
5. Turn on emergency withdrawal
If you ever cannot approve a payment the usual way, you can still move your funds on your own after a 72-hour safety delay. Turning it on needs one approval with your authenticator and a Telegram code, then one transaction from your wallet.
Connect Telegram first: the approval code is sent there.
Changing your authenticator or Telegram pauses payments from your Shield for 24 hours.
