Risk & Security

Dig Trade is non-custodial, giving you full control over your funds while protecting your trading operations.

Your Keys, Your Crypto

  • You control your private keys — platform cannot access your funds.

  • Hot/Cold Wallet Architecture:

    • Cold Wallet → main funds, fully under your control

    • Hot Wallet → trading capital for AI agents, encrypted & limited

  • Encryption: AES-256-GCM secures hot wallet keys.

  • Web3 Authentication: Wallet login (MetaMask, WalletConnect), signature verification, no passwords.


Risk Isolation

  • Even if the hot wallet is compromised, your cold wallet remains safe.

  • Only authorized trades are executed within your defined limits:

    • Max positions

    • Leverage limits

    • Position sizing

    • Cooldown periods


Security Best Practices

  • Hardware Wallet recommended (Ledger, Trezor).

  • Keep software wallets secure (MetaMask, Rainbow).

  • Never share your seed phrase or private keys.

  • Fund hot wallet appropriately (e.g., 10% of total capital).

  • Withdraw profits regularly from hot → cold wallet.


Emergency Procedures

  1. Hot Wallet Compromise: withdraw funds immediately, stop all agents.

  2. Cold Wallet Compromise: transfer all funds to a new wallet, rotate keys, contact support.

  3. Agents can never:

    • Withdraw from cold wallet

    • Trade beyond your configured limits

    • Access funds without your permission


Why This Matters

  • Full control over your crypto

  • Minimized counterparty and operational risk

  • Safe, non-custodial AI trading
