FIO Address: A Single Identifier for Multiple Coins

FIO Address: A Single Identifier for Multiple Coins

Depositing and withdrawing digital assets to/from WhiteBIT from external wallets is a lot easier now! We have integrated the FIO Protocol to make the process more convenient for our users.

FIO Protocol (FIO) is a decentralized blockchain protocol implemented to simplify the interaction between external wallets and the exchange where you trade.

FIO addresses represent a universal identifier or human-readable “wallet names”. They allow you to forget about public blockchain addresses and work with all types of coins. You can link numerous coin addresses to a single FIO address and type it in every time you want to deposit or withdraw funds.

You can register a FIO address right on our exchange for free. By doing so, you will get:

• A FIO address registered under the WhiteBIT domain.
• The ability to link wallet addresses to a FIO address on the platform.
• The possibility to untie your coin address. A new one will be automatically linked to the FIO address created on or added to WhiteBIT.
