I'm not sure which category this question belongs to.
Many people say you should have a non-custodial wallet.
I did research and decided on Atomic Wallet.
I want to transfer funds from my Bank of America account into Atomic Wallet.
However, there are 7 different USDCoins.
So I used the Help feature and ask which of the 7 should I use?
I got an email back:
Hi there,
Thank you for reaching out.
We are here to help! But I need a little cooperation from your side, as we are a decentralized wallet and we don’t have any access to your private information.
In order for me to understand what happened, please provide the following info:
– Your coin addresses
Looking forward to your reply.

Is it normal for them to ask for my coin address?
I've read about all the scams going on. About how good hackers are.
And why do they need my coin address?

As long as you don't send them your private keys/seed words, they can't steal your coins from your public address. I don't think there will be any problems.

However, if they ask anything more "private", you should come to your senses pretty quickly and stop the conversation.

I agree with the users above, if you want to use a non-custodial wallet, use electrum. It is fast, works great and it is safe as long as you download it from the right source. >>> electrum.org

Just delete atomic wallet the moment you solved your problems with them.
