Receiving NYC from an exchange or another wallet
The most direct way to get NYC into Scrypt Wallet is to send it from wherever you already hold it — an exchange, another wallet — to your own NYC address. Open Receive in Scrypt Wallet to generate that address, and double-check the network shown matches Newyorkcoin before you send: initiating a withdrawal on the wrong network is one of the most common ways funds get stuck or lost outright.
Before you rely on a deposit
Treat an unconfirmed NYC deposit as pending, not settled, until it has enough network confirmations. Scrypt Wallet is non-custodial — your NYC key is generated and encrypted on your own device, so getting funds into the wallet is really just a normal on-chain (or in-app swap) transaction, not an account top-up. Open the NYC wallet page for the current price and network details before you move funds.
