FAQs:

• Why do I have multiple Pibi wallet addresses?

  • Pibi uses a hierarchical deterministic (HD) protocol, which generates a seed phrase that can derive multiple addresses. Each address is associated with a different receive path.

  • It is unnecessary to change your address regularly unless there are specific security concerns, such as compromised privacy or potential phishing attacks.

• Can I send funds to an old Pibi wallet address?

  • Yes, you can send funds to an old Pibi wallet address. However, once funds are sent to an address, they cannot be reversed.

• What should I do if I lose or forget my Pibi wallet address?

  • As long as you have access to your recovery phrase or private key, you can recover your Pibi wallet address and access your funds.

• How can I prevent my Pibi wallet address from being stolen?

  • Protect your recovery phrase and private key by storing them securely. Use strong passwords and enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on your wallet if available.
