Frequently Asked Questions
Is it safe to connect my Keystone to the OKX app?
Yes, the connection is highly secure. The linking process uses a QR code, which means your private keys never leave the Keystone hardware wallet. All transactions must be physically confirmed on the device itself.
What should I do if the QR code scan fails?
First, ensure your Keystone device's screen is clean and the QR code is fully visible on the screen. Check that your phone’s camera lens is clean and that you have granted the OKX app permission to use the camera. If problems persist, try restarting both the app and your hardware wallet.
Can I connect multiple Keystone wallets to one OKX app?
The OKX mobile app typically manages one active hardware wallet connection at a time. However, you can disconnect the current wallet and connect a different one through the app's settings menu.
Which cryptocurrencies can I manage after connecting?
You can manage all assets on the supported chains, including BTC, ETH and other EVM-based tokens, TRX, LTC, BCH, and DASH. The availability of specific tokens may depend on the network.
Do I need to reconnect my wallet every time I use it?
No, once the initial connection is successfully established, your wallet should remain linked for future sessions. You will only need to reconnect if you manually disconnect it or if the app data is cleared.
Where are my private keys stored?
Your private keys are generated by and stored exclusively on your Keystone hardware wallet. They are never transmitted to your phone or the OKX app, ensuring the highest level of security for your assets.
