Get Help Safely

Most Divi problems are solved by one good question in the right place. This page shows where to ask, what to put in the question so someone can answer it, which details are safe to share, and the short list of things you never share with anyone, however helpful they seem.

1The one rule before you ask

Nobody who is helping you needs your secrets

No real helper ever needs your recovery phrase, a private key, your wallet file or your wallet password. That includes the Divi team, an exchange, a wallet developer, a moderator, the chatbot and this site. Every real problem can be diagnosed from public information: an address, a transaction id, a version number and an error message.

Keep that one sentence in mind and you can ask anywhere, in public, without risk. The rest of this page is about asking well.

2Where to ask, in order

  1. The Divi Assistant on this site. For "how do I" and "what is" questions, the chatbot at services.divi.domains/chatbot/ answers in seconds and names its sources. It takes one question a minute and cannot see your wallet. Ask the chatbot shows what it gets right and where it is out of date.
  2. This tutorial site and the explorer. If the question is "did my coins arrive?", the explorer answers it with nothing but your address. See Look up an address and Read a transaction.
  3. The official Telegram group, in public. t.me/diviproject had 2,300 members on 2026-10-22. It is a community of volunteers, so an answer can take hours. Ask in the group, never in a private chat. Official Telegram shows how to tell it from the copy.
  4. Discord and Reddit. The Discord server at discord.com/invite/diviproject and r/DiviProject are both linked from the official site. They are quieter than Telegram.
  5. Email. support@diviproject.org is the only support address on diviproject.org. Use it when the question is not one for a public chat. Replies can be slow.

The numbers are member counts from the public Telegram pages on 2026-10-22. The fake is t.me/DiviProjectOfficial: same name, same logo, twelve members, and not linked from the official site.

3Write a question someone can answer

Volunteers answer the questions they can answer quickly. "My wallet doesn't work, help" gets silence or a private message from a scammer. A question with five facts in it gets a real reply.

  1. Which wallet and which version. IronDivi, Divi Desktop, BoxWallet, the web wallet, the browser extension or the Telegram wallet, and the version. For an IronDivi node the honest version is in getnetworkinfo, not getinfo (see Announcements and upgrades).
  2. What you did. The steps in order: "I sent 5,000 DIVI from Nonkyc to my IronDivi address".
  3. What you expected and what happened. "It shows on the explorer with 40 confirmations but my wallet balance is still 0."
  4. The exact error text, copied, not retyped from memory.
  5. The public ids. The transaction id and, if it helps, the receiving address. Both are public already.

Here is a question built that way, with numbers from our own testnet node on 2026-10-22:

Wallet: IronDivi /IronDivi:0.2.6/,
  Linux, testnet
Did: sent 1,000 tDIVI from my
  other wallet to my node
Expected: balance up after a
  few blocks
Happened: explorer shows it
  confirmed; node is at block
  360833; getbalance unchanged
Txid: (paste the txid)
Log: (3-20 lines from node.log)

Two commands give the version and height lines. They print nothing secret:

# the "subversion" line is the version
irondivi-cli getnetworkinfo
# compare with the explorer's height
irondivi-cli getblockcount

4Safe to share, never to share

Safe to shareNever share
Transaction id (txid)Recovery phrase (12 or 24 words), or a photo of it
Your addressPrivate keys, or the output of dumpprivkey
Wallet name and versionThe output of dumphdinfo (IronDivi) or a dumpwallet file (Divi Core)
Block height, sync statusWallet files: wallet.dat (Divi Core, Divi Desktop), the wallet folder (IronDivi)
Copied error textThe wallet password (passphrase)
A few log lines you have readdivi.conf or irondivi.conf: they hold the RPC password
A screenshot of the error onlyRemote access to your computer (AnyDesk, TeamViewer and the like)

Why each "never" matters:

An address is public, but it is also your history

Anyone with your address can see its balance and every payment in and out on the explorer. That is fine for getting help. If you would rather not tie your balance to your Telegram name, share the txid alone; it is usually enough.

5Bugs, security holes and exchange problems

The IronDivi issues page on GitHub, viewed without signing in: tabs Code, Issues, Pull requests, a green New issue button, and an empty list with Open 0 and Closed 0

6When someone messages you first

Post a question in a busy public group and, within minutes, someone may message you privately: "Divi Support", "Admin", a copy of a real member's name and photo, or a friendly stranger who "fixed the same thing". This is the most common way people lose coins after asking for help.

If you already shared a secret

Make a new wallet with a new phrase now, and move every coin to it in one transaction before anything else. Avoid scams walks through it, and covers the second scam that follows: "recovery services" that charge to get stolen coins back. They cannot.
