# Wallet FAQ

What self-custodial means at Coinpilot, how Privy wallets are created, exporting your private keys, and recovering after a lost device.

#### 1. **What does “self-custodial” mean?** <a href="#id-3.-what-does-self-custodial-mean" id="id-3.-what-does-self-custodial-mean"></a>

Your wallet is created through **Privy**. Coinpilot never has access to your private keys.

* Your funds stay in your wallet.
* You control deposits, withdrawals, and trading.
* We cannot freeze or move your assets.

#### **2. How can I sign up? Can I use my existing wallet? Or do I need to create one?** <a href="#id-2.-how-can-i-sign-up-can-i-use-my-existing-wallet-or-do-i-need-to-create-one" id="id-2.-how-can-i-sign-up-can-i-use-my-existing-wallet-or-do-i-need-to-create-one"></a>

Right now, you sign up and log in with your **email**, secured by **Privy**. When you do, **non-custodial wallets** are automatically created for you. The wallets are tied to your account, fully under your control, and you can export the private key anytime.

Support for logging in directly with an existing wallet is planned in our roadmap.

#### **3. Does Coinpilot have access to my private keys?** <a href="#id-1.-does-coinpilot-have-access-to-my-private-keys" id="id-1.-does-coinpilot-have-access-to-my-private-keys"></a>

No. Private keys to your self-custody wallet are generated via Privy and only accessible to you. You can export all wallets' private keys.

#### **4. How do I export my wallet?** <a href="#id-2.-how-do-i-export-my-wallet" id="id-2.-how-do-i-export-my-wallet"></a>

Go to **Profile > Tap on** ⚙️ **>** **Export Wallet**. Log in with your email, select **Export Private Key**, and save it securely. Never share it with anyone.

#### **5. What if I lose my device?** <a href="#id-3.-what-if-i-lose-my-device" id="id-3.-what-if-i-lose-my-device"></a>

Simply log in again with your email. Your wallet is tied to your login, not the device.

#### **How do wallets work across Lite and Pro?**

You use the same Privy-secured Coinpilot login in both modes. Lite has separate wallets from Pro, and balances and positions are not combined or transferred when you switch modes.

Lite funding supports Solana, Base, BNB Chain, Ethereum, Arc, and Robinhood Chain. Always use the deposit address and asset shown for the network you selected in the app.
