Security and custody

Understand wallets, withdrawals, venues, and risk before funding automation.

Ottie should make money movement feel calm by naming the wallet model, account path, third-party venue, network, and recovery expectations before users act.
Custody model

The current automation path uses Privy-managed server wallets.

Authentication

Users sign in through Privy-supported authentication before private wallets, balances, and strategy controls are shown.

Server wallets

Privy-managed server wallets support automated workflows that need signing without asking users to manage seed phrases inside Ottie.

Funding paths

Ottie names the chain, account, asset, gas requirement, and venue path whenever funds need to move.

Risk model

Automation changes workflow risk; it does not erase financial risk.

Market and liquidity risk

Prices can move quickly, spreads can widen, and liquidity can disappear before or during execution.

Venue and provider risk

Hyperliquid, wallet providers, RPCs, bridges, data vendors, and tokenized asset providers can change or fail independently.

Network and smart contract risk

Gas, chain congestion, contract bugs, bridge delays, and irreversible transactions remain part of crypto workflows.

Can I withdraw anytime?

Withdrawals depend on supported assets, account state, venue rules, network conditions, and the withdrawal implementation available in the product.

Is Ottie financial advice?

No. Ottie provides software, automation controls, market information, and account status. Users remain responsible for decisions and risk.
