Official Pi Wallet Access: Avoid Scams

To securely access your Pi Wallet, always use the official Pi Browser at the URL: wallet.PiNet.com. This is the only authorized link for managing your Pi coins. Any other site claiming to be the Pi Wallet is fraudulent and may attempt to steal your Pi or sensitive information.

Key Features of the Authentic Pi Wallet

The official Pi Wallet is easily identifiable by the following features:

1. Purple Navigation Bar: When you access your Pi Wallet in the Pi Browser, the navigation bar at the top will have a distinct purple color.
2. Core Team Logo: Look for the Pi Core Team apps logo, ensuring you’re in the right place.

These design elements serve as visual cues to verify the authenticity of your wallet. If you don’t see these indicators, exit immediately and double-check the URL.

How to Safeguard Your Pi Coins

1. Use the Official URL: Always access your wallet directly at wallet.PiNet.com. Bookmark the link to avoid accidentally visiting fake sites.
2. Beware of Phishing: Be cautious of any messages, emails, or ads promoting alternate wallet URLs. The Pi Core Team does not endorse third-party wallets.
3. Secure Your Credentials: Never share your private keys, seed phrases, or passwords with anyone. These are the keys to your digital assets and must be kept confidential.
4. Verify Before Logging In: Always ensure you're in the Pi Browser with the purple navigation bar and the Pi Core Team logo.
