Is Solflare safe to connect?

Self-custody wallet · Solana. Checked 2026-10-25; every line links its source.

Worst case: Solflare is self-custody: a leaked recovery phrase or a signed malicious approval can drain the wallet, and Solflare can't reverse or recover anything.

Already lost funds? What to do if a bot or wallet is drained.

Safe setup in 3 steps

  2. Review and revoke dapp permissions under Settings → Security and Privacy → Spending Approvals, and never type your recovery phrase into a site or 'support' chat.
  3. Use a separate Solflare wallet with a small balance for bots and memecoin trading, and keep savings on a Ledger connected to Solflare.
