To retrieve a wallet address you first need to go to our official website http://privcy.io/ and download wallet.

Windows Wallet

Mac Wallet

Linux Wallet

Click download wallet. Once it’s downloaded, please open ‘’PRiVCY-qt’’ file.

Choose the location you want to install it to. Our recommendation is to install to ‘’custom’’ location.

Once wallet opens give it a few minutes for TOR to authenticate and create a circuit, proceed to ‘’Receive Coins’’ and copy your wallet address. Your wallet address is all that’s required for Airdrops.

Prior to setting it up in our Discord, for your sake and safety of not losing any coins, you will need to export your wallets address private key, with this guarantee ownership of this address and thus promising 100% safety net to not losing your coins in case of environment errors or HDD crash.

To do this you will need to go to SETTINGS ===> ENCRYPT WALLET ===> Follow steps to set password for your wallet.

Once it’s done, click ‘’Unlock Wallet’’ and un-check ‘’For Staking Only’’, type your password and click ‘’OK’’

From there go to HELP ===> DEBUG ===> CONSOLE. Here you will type ‘dumpprivkey <YOUR PRiVCYaddress>’ and hit enter.

You will receive output somewhere to the likes of:

This is your Private Key, so please keep it safe and from prying eyes.

Please do note, each address has its own private key.
