he phishing protection feature helps to make your wallet unique and easily verifiable from phishing attempts by scammers. It's a uniquely generated art for your wallet that is being displayed on all the sensitive areas where you need to use your password. This feature makes it very difficult for scammers to perform phishing scams because they don't know the design of your generative art.
We highly recommend that you have this feature turned ON and that you remember your art and not disclose it to anyone.
Your unique anti-phishing art is being displayed on the "Login" & "Import/Export Account" pages.
It's important to note that if you ever try to interact with your BlockWallet but it doesn't show your anti-phishing art, it likely means that you are a victim of a phishing attempt and that you should avoid using the wallet and instead contact our community managers on Telegram or Discord for further guidance.
To access the phishing protection menu, start by clicking the settings icon at the top right of the main screen of your wallet.
In the Settings menu, click "Preferences".
In the preferences menu, click "Phishing Protection".
In the phishing protection menu, you'll be able to toggle it ON/OFF and regenerate a new image.
