This page provides concise, practical help for signing into a BlockFi account, securing access, identifying official resources and tracking the distribution/recovery process currently handled by the court-appointed administrators.

2. BlockFi Login — how to safely access your account
To log in safely, always navigate to BlockFi's official domain via your browser (type it manually or use a trusted bookmark). Avoid clicking login links from unexpected emails or social channels. If you’re required to create an account with a distribution partner (for example, a Coinbase account for crypto distributions), follow administrator instructions from the official claim portal.
Official homepage (type or bookmark): blockfi.com
If you have trouble logging in because of account status changes tied to restructuring, use the case administrator portal and contact addresses below. Do not provide credentials to unknown support contacts.
3. Safety first — spotting phishing & scams
Scams frequently mimic official emails. Look for mismatched sender domains, urgent language demanding you click a link, requests for full credentials, or files you didn't request. When in doubt — don't click. Instead, go to the official BlockFi domain or the case administrator site and open a verified support ticket.
Tip: use a hardware authenticator app for 2FA where possible, and check for HTTPS + a correct certificate on the site before entering credentials.
4. Recovery process & distributions — what to expect
BlockFi's Chapter 11 proceedings established a plan to distribute recovered assets and cash to creditors. Distribution rounds have involved third-party partners (for crypto distributions, Coinbase has been used in coordination with the plan administrator). Deadlines and claim steps are announced through the restructuring portal; make sure to follow the official claim instructions to receive funds or crypto assets.

5. Official administrator & case contacts
The official restructuring administrator page (Kroll) contains the case docket, distribution portal and a way to submit inquiries. Use those addresses for case-specific questions — do not trust random social posts or unofficial forms.

6. Distribution partners (Coinbase & cash processing)
For some rounds, the plan administrator has used Coinbase to facilitate crypto distributions; cash distributions may be processed by payment partners listed in the official notices. If you are required to create an account with a distribution partner to receive crypto, follow exact instructions from the administrator portal — do not sign up through third-party emails that claim to represent BlockFi.

7. Troubleshooting login — step-by-step
- Clear your browser cache and cookies (or try a private window).
- Confirm you're on a bookmarked/typed official domain (not a forwarded link).
- Use your authenticator app if 2FA is enabled; if you lost 2FA, open the official support case via the Kroll portal.
- If the account is subject to bankruptcy administration, follow the plan administrator's recovery instructions rather than attempting withdrawals from any legacy interface.
8. How to secure your account (best practices)
Use a password manager to generate and store unique passwords. Enable 2FA with an authenticator (not SMS when possible). Keep recovery codes in a secure offline location. If you receive an email about distributions or account changes, first verify the message by logging into the official portal without clicking the link in the email.
