Control Your Crypto Send Function: An Extra Layer of Protection for Your Assets

In crypto, security isn’t just about strong passwords and 2-Factor Authentication. It’s also about control.

That’s why Hata offers a feature that lets you disable your crypto send (withdrawal) function, giving you full control over when and how your assets can be moved.

Whether you’re a long-term holder or simply want added peace of mind, controlling your send function can significantly reduce the risk of unauthorized withdrawals.

Key Takeaways

• You can disable crypto withdrawals directly for added security.

• Temporary disable includes a 24-hour cooldown before withdrawals can be re-enabled.

• Permanent disable requires support verification to turn withdrawals back on.

• Ideal for HODLers and users who don’t frequently move assets.

• Adds a powerful layer of protection against account compromise.

What Is the Crypto Send (Withdrawal) Function?

The crypto send function allows you to transfer digital assets out of your Hata account to an external wallet.

While this is essential for active traders and frequent movers, it’s also the highest-risk action, because once a withdrawal is completed, crypto transactions cannot be reversed.

That’s why controlling when this function is available matters.

Why Disable Withdrawals?

Disabling withdrawals helps protect you in scenarios such as:

• Your Hata account credentials are exposed

• Your email is compromised

• A device is lost or accessed without permission

• You want long-term storage without frequent transfers

If withdrawals are disabled, funds stay put, even if someone gains access to your Hata account.

Think of it as placing your crypto in a digital vault.

Two Ways to Control Your Send Function

Hata gives you two options, depending on your security needs.

1. Temporary Disable (24-Hour Cooldown)

   This option lets you disable withdrawals instantly. When you choose to re-enable them, a 24-hour cooldown period applies before withdrawals become active again.

   Best for:

   • Long-term holders

   • Users who only withdraw occasionally

   • Added protection during travel or high-risk periods

   Why it works:
   Even if an attacker gains access, they can’t withdraw immediately, giving you time to react and secure your Hata account.

2. Permanent Disable (Support Verification Required)

   This option locks withdrawals completely. To re-enable them, you’ll need to go through manual verification.

   
   Best for:

   • Strict HODLers

   • Users who rarely or never withdraw

   • Maximum protection against unauthorized transactions

   Why it works:
   No automated process means no instant withdrawals, only verified, intentional access.
   

Security Is About Layers

Passwords protect logins.
2FA protects access.
Withdrawal controls protect your assets.

By limiting what your Hata account can do, you reduce risk, even in worst-case scenarios.
