A SIMPLE WAY IN
Three small steps.
A more confident start.
Take your time with setup. Your keys belong to you, and each decision deserves a careful look.
Set up your recovery
Follow the official setup flow, then store your recovery phrase offline in a private, secure place. Never share it.

Before connecting to an app, check its address, network, requested permissions, and every transaction detail.
Explore wallet basicsTHE EVERYDAY VIEW
Know what you’re looking at.
Your wallet can hold supported assets, show activity, and connect to decentralized apps. This sample is illustrative—nothing here connects to a real wallet.
A
Assets & networks
Assets live on different blockchain networks. Confirm the selected network before sending or receiving, and make sure the destination supports it.
B
Connections & permissions
A connected app may request specific permissions. Only approve what makes sense, and review connected apps periodically.
C
Transactions & fees
Crypto transactions can be irreversible and may include network fees. Pause to review the recipient, amount, and fee before signing.
A FEW RULES THAT MATTER
Keep your keys
yours alone.
Your recovery phrase gives access to your wallet. Anyone who gets it may control the assets in it.
