Good to know
FIRO amounts use 8 decimal places: 1 FIRO = 10^8 base units.
Its SLIP-44 coin type is 136, so BIP-44 style wallets derive it under m/44'/136'/โฆ.
This page checks address formats only. It never asks for a private key or seed phrase. Want to know if an address still holds funds? Try find money (coverage is listed there). Lost the wallet app? See the recovery guides.
