Wallet Address Safety: Avoiding Simple Mistakes on Zora
Best practices for copying, checking, and sharing wallet addresses before sending assets.
Why this matters on Zora
A correct address on the wrong network can still produce a bad outcome. Copy carefully, verify the first and last characters, and confirm the destination network.
Zora is an Ethereum scaling ecosystem with its own network balances and application environment.
Zora is part of the Ethereum scaling ecosystem. The same ticker can exist on Ethereum and on Zora as separate token contracts, so a balance seen on one network cannot be assumed to exist, or to be redeemable at the same value, on the other.
Zora: what to pay attention to
- Security: Confirm the active network and transaction details before signing.
- Assets and tokens: Verify the token contract on Zora.
- Costs: Compare network gas with any bridge or liquidity costs.
A Zora checklist for this topic

- Check the domain you are on before connecting a wallet for any Zora action.
- Send a small test amount first when an address or route on Zora is new to you.
- Verify the contract address on Zora from an independent source rather than a ticker or a logo.
