  1. Using a pen and paper, write down your 24-word recovery phrase exactly as it appears. Number each word to make verifying easier.
🔥Protect your recovery phrase

Anyone who gains access to your seed phrase can access the contents of your wallet. There is no recourse for a stolen recovery phrase. To protect your seed phrase, consider the following tips.

  • Never save or store your seed phrase as a digital file on any device.
  • Always write down your seed phrase with a pen and paper.
  • Store the paper with your seed phrase on it somewhere safe where only you can access it.
  • Never give your seed phrase to anyone, not even support staff.

  1. Verify the written seed phrase to ensure every word is spelled correctly and that each word is in the correct order. Verifying the words in reverse order may help.

  2. Check the box to confirm that your seed phrase has been written down and click Create Wallet. Keep your seed phrase around for the next step.

  3. Confirm your seed phrase by selecting the correct words in each prompt and then click Confirm.
