Self-custody gives you total control — and total responsibility. Understand the risks before you hold real value.
Last updated: August 16, 2026
Digital assets, including TRX and TRC-20 tokens, are highly volatile. Prices can swing sharply in minutes and may collapse to zero. Never hold funds you cannot afford to lose entirely.
Blockchain transactions are final and irreversible. A transfer to a wrong address, a fake token, or a scam cannot be cancelled, reversed, or refunded by anyone — including TronVault.
With self-custody, you are your own bank. If your recovery phrase is lost, your funds are lost forever. If it is stolen or exposed, your funds can be taken with no recourse. Treat the phrase like the cash of your entire balance.
Tron transactions consume energy and bandwidth. Transfers without energy burn TRX. TronVault always shows the exact fee before you confirm and offers Energy staking to reduce costs — but network costs are set by the Tron protocol, not by us.
Anyone can create a TRC-20 token with any name or symbol, including imitations of well-known tokens. When importing custom tokens, always verify the contract address on an independent explorer (tronscan.org) before trusting or trading it.
No legitimate party will ever ask for your recovery phrase. Requests for your phrase are always scams.
TronVault is not a regulated financial service. Funds held in self-custody wallets may not benefit from deposit-insurance or investor-compensation schemes available to regulated bank or brokerage accounts.
