  When transferring your cryptocurrency, it's important to double-check the recipient address. One small mistake in the address can result in the loss of your crypto. Make sure to copy and paste the address instead of typing it manually to avoid any typos. Additionally, consider sending a small test amount first to confirm that the transfer is successful before sending the full amount.
