HowToSwapCrypto

Use a wallet where you control the recovery phrase or private keys. Back it up offline before you do anything else.

Make sure the token and destination network match the swap you intend to perform. A token on one chain is not automatically the same asset on another chain.

Go directly to an official protocol or trusted aggregator interface. Bookmark real domains and avoid ads, fake links, and copied domains.

For smaller tokens, verify the contract address from the project’s official sources before selecting it in your wallet or swap app.

Look at gas fees, liquidity, routing, minimum received, and price impact before confirming.

A token approval lets a dapp move a token from your wallet. Approve only what you understand, and revoke old approvals you no longer need.

Double-check the receiving asset, the amount, and the network. Once confirmed on-chain, many mistakes cannot be reversed.

Save the transaction hash and review the result in a block explorer after the swap.
