Trust Handles Explained - How to create an @trust handle

What is a Trust handle?

Trust Handles are human-readable wallet addresses, ending in "@trust." Trust handles are designed to enhance the usability of cryptocurrencies across various blockchains. These handles can be used to replace the long, complex wallet addresses commonly used in cryptocurrency transactions with something more intuitive and easier to manage—similar to the ease of memorizing an email address.

  • Select the settings (gear symbol).
  • Select Trust Handles option and then the Register handle button.

  • Continue the remaining instructions to secure your @trust handle

How many addresses can be mapped to a Trust handle?


There is a limit of 200 addresses that can be mapped to a handle. Also, if the domain is not renewed annually and lapses 90 days all handles on said domain would also be burned. 


Also note, that you cannot have multiple BTC addresses mapped to the same handle as there would be no way to differentiate. A Handle can only support mappings for one address per chain. i.e. one BTC address, one ETH, etc.


There is no limit on the number of Handles under a domain. No limit to the number of Handles a single FIO wallet/pub key could register.
