⚡ Get Started in 4 Simple Steps

01. Prepare Your Ledger

🔑 The Most Important Step: Protect Your Recovery Phrase

During wallet setup, you may be given a recovery phrase. This phrase is extremely sensitive because it can be used to restore access to your wallet.

Keep your recovery phrase:

PRIVATE → Never give it to another person.
OFFLINE → Avoid storing it in screenshots or cloud services.
SECURE → Keep the physical backup somewhere protected.

A website, message, or person asking for your recovery phrase should be treated as a serious warning sign.
