Recovery phrase exposed

What to do if someone else may have seen your twelve words.

If you believe anyone else has seen your twelve words, assume the account is compromised. Whoever holds them can restore the account on their own device.

What to do#

  1. Open the app on your device and delete the account: Settings → Account → Delete account. This makes the number and the account unusable, including by whoever holds the phrase.
  2. Create a new account, which generates a new phrase.
  3. Tell the people you talk to that your address has changed, using a channel that is not the compromised one.
