Receiving Cryptocurrency

Receiving cryptocurrency allows you to transfer supported cryptocurrencies from an external wallet or exchange into your Nova Crypto Wallet.

Each supported cryptocurrency is assigned a wallet address. Before sending funds, always verify that you are using the correct cryptocurrency and blockchain network.

Cryptocurrency transactions are generally irreversible once confirmed on the blockchain.

Before You Receive Cryptocurrency

Before transferring cryptocurrency to your Nova account:

Ensure the cryptocurrency is supported.
Verify that you have selected the correct blockchain network.
Copy the wallet address provided by Nova.
Review any applicable minimum deposit requirements.

Sending cryptocurrency using an unsupported token or blockchain network may result in the permanent loss of funds.

To receive cryptocurrency:

Open the Cryptocurrency section.
Select Deposit.
Choose the cryptocurrency you want to receive.
Copy your wallet address or scan the QR code, if available.
Share the address with the sender or use it when withdrawing from another wallet or exchange.
Wait for the transaction to be confirmed on the blockchain.

Once the required confirmations have been completed, the cryptocurrency will be credited to your Nova Crypto Wallet.

Wallet Addresses

Each supported cryptocurrency has its own receiving address.

Always use the wallet address generated for the cryptocurrency you are receiving.

Do not send one cryptocurrency to the wallet address of another cryptocurrency unless explicitly supported.

Blockchain Networks

Some cryptocurrencies can operate on multiple blockchain networks.

Before sending funds, verify that:

The sending wallet supports the selected network.
The receiving network matches the one selected in Nova.

Using an incorrect or unsupported network may prevent your funds from being credited to your account.

Transaction Confirmations

Cryptocurrency deposits require confirmation on the blockchain before they become available in your wallet.

The number of confirmations required depends on the cryptocurrency and blockchain network.

During this time, the transaction may appear as pending.

Viewing Your Balance

After the transaction has been confirmed:

Your Crypto Wallet balance is updated.
The transaction appears in your cryptocurrency history.
You may receive a notification, depending on your notification settings.
