Secure your Hyonix PC / Farmer
Security Tips (General)
Always use a brand new wallet to import to the farmer. Don't use one which you have connected to other websites in the past. Don't use this wallet on other websites after you started farming with it
Make sure you exported the keys to that wallet to both your PC and your phone (if you want to sometimes manage it while on the go), but don't write down that key anywhere online. Writing it on a physical paper is best. Same goes with the secret phrase to the entire wallet - physical paper only
Do not install the phantom wallet on your hyonix. There was always a chance the hyonix can get hacked (ie. Somebody figures out the username and password to the website, and then they can log in with the IP). Instead create a new wallet on your PC or phone... And then just copy and paste the key over
Make sure you use a unique password when creating your Hyonix account. Again don't write down that password online
Hyonix also has a way to restrict access just to certain IPs, Click Here. - so make sure to do this. Even if someone were to get into the Hyonix, we encrypt the key there, but you never know if an advanced hacker could still crack it
