A pause before your money moves.

Transfers wait before they settle and go only to addresses you’ve listed — so one you didn’t mean can be cancelled while it’s still waiting.

Where control breaks today

Once you sign, it’s gone.

Banks and cards give you a window to stop a mistake. Most wallets don’t.

Hardware that protects the key, not the decision

A harder-to-steal key does nothing about a transaction you approved on a page that wasn’t what it seemed.

Backups that solve loss, not misuse

A seed in a safe helps if you lose access. It doesn’t help if someone else gains it.

Custody that trades one risk for another

Handing assets to a third party removes key risk by removing your control.

An everyday wallet that can do everything

The wallet you use daily can usually move everything you hold, to anyone, at once.

In practice

A transfer started from your everyday wallet waits. You cancel it from your second wallet.

The approach

The same rules organizations rely on — set up around your own wallets.

Transfers from your everyday wallet wait before they can be approved, and can be cancelled while they wait.

Coin transfers go only to addresses you’ve listed — your exchange, your other wallet, people you pay.

Your everyday wallet can only ask. Only a second wallet you keep safe can approve — so a compromised browser can’t finish a transfer.

Particle CS never holds your keys. The rules sit in your account on-chain.
