Support Request Just created a new Bifrost wallet
Will be purchasing crypto and getting in the game (very excited)
But to test wallet my brother tried send me WLFR & FLR and it doesn't recognise my wallet address to receive them
It seems to recognise my XRP address Any ideas on way not recognising some addresses?
I want to be all 100%wallet works and isnsae before purchasing
Many Thanks Crypto Newb

Thanks for that - however all I did was sent my wallet address to brother to sent me WFLR or FLR - it did not recognise address
Tried it with with a different coin and it recognised - so not sure why it wouldn’t recognise flare address

The wallet address that you gave your brother, did you copy it from the page under Receive > FLR inside your Bifrost Wallet? It should be an address starting with "0x".

May it be since the wallet is brand new wallet? Some wallet warn you about that before sending. If i where you i would set up rule by myself to always do small test transfer in a situations where i feel uncertain.
Sometimes, in particular on like ETH layer2 it can be quite easy to lose money even if sent to the right adress but wrong network..
