  • Sign in with Google — this might not be the happiest choice taking into account that limited support across other wallets
  • Import existing account — this helps only if you already have one
  • Import ledger — for this you will need to use a Ledger Nano X/S
  • Create new account — this is what we recommend you to use as this is done via Mnemonic Seed Phrase
  • After choosing ‘Create new account’, you will be prompted with your secret seed or mnemonic phrase. For security reasons, please make sure to save this phrase in a safe place and never lose it, this is your account’s master key. In the next step, you will also need to input this phrase. After this, please set your account name and password, and click ‘Next’. In order to confirm the account creation, you will need to click on the words in the right order in which they appear in your mnemonic phrase and press ‘Register’.
