## Tips

* ACA and KAR pay the fees on their chains. Keep a little until the end, and move or swap them last.
* Unbonding LDOT and LKSM takes time. Start early so your DOT or KSM arrives before Feb 10, 2027.
* Use only official links from acala.network, karura.network, @AcalaNetwork and @KaruraNetwork. We will never DM you first or ask for your seed phrase.
