# Is Axiom safe to connect?

Web trading terminal · Solana, Hyperliquid (perps). Checked 2026-10-24; every line links its source.

**Worst case:** Your Axiom wallet is tied to Turnkey-hosted keys and your Axiom login. A phished login, a fake Axiom app or site, or a malicious 'verification' page can drain it. Axiom staff have also been accused of looking up which wallets belong to whom.

Already lost funds? [What to do if a bot or wallet is drained](https://tradingagentstack.com/trading-bot-drained-what-to-do/).

## Safe setup in 3 steps

1. Type axiom.trade yourself or use a bookmark; don't install 'Axiom' mobile apps or follow DM or ad links (a fake Axiom app reportedly drained 200+ users)

2. Export and store the wallet's recovery phrase offline, and keep only trading funds in the Axiom wallet

3. Never run commands or paste scripts from 'Cloudflare check' or verification pages, and assume Axiom can link your wallets to your account

## What it can do with your money

| Who holds the keys | Not documented Axiom wallets run on Turnkey's third-party key infrastructure, and Axiom presents itself as non-custodial. Ryder (a hardware-wallet seller) says the recovery phrase is exportable from settings. We couldn't confirm the exact custody split from Axiom's own docs.
