Each blockchain has its own address. Your Bitcoin address is different from your Ethereum address.

Deposit From

  • Another wallet you own

  • An exchange (Coinbase, Binance, Kraken, etc.)

  • A friend sending you crypto


Sending Crypto

Step-by-Step

  1. Select the asset you want to send from your vault

  2. Tap "Send"

  3. Enter the recipient address - paste or scan QR code

  4. Enter the amount - or tap "Max" for everything

  5. Review the transaction - check address, amount, and fee

  6. Sign with your devices - bring your threshold of devices together

  7. Done! - transaction broadcasts automatically

Tips

  • Double-check the address - crypto transactions are irreversible

  • Start small - send a test transaction first for large amounts

  • Have enough for fees - keep some native token (ETH, BTC, SOL) for gas


The Signing Process

This is where Vultisig's security shines:

  1. Initiate - Start the transaction on one device

  2. Pair - Other device(s) scan the QR code or connect via relay

  3. Review - All devices show the same transaction details

  4. Approve - Each device approves independently

  5. Sign - Threshold signatures combine to create a valid transaction

  6. Broadcast - Transaction is sent to the blockchain
