Step 4: Create Recovery Seed

Your recovery seed (12 or 24 words) is the most critical component of your wallet. Write it down carefully and store it offline. Never take photos or store it digitally.

Step 5: Set PIN & Optional Passphrase

Protect your wallet with a secure PIN. Advanced users may enable a passphrase for additional hidden wallet security.

Understanding Recovery & Backup

If your device is lost, stolen, or damaged, your recovery seed restores full access to your funds. This is why seed protection is more important than device protection itself.

Consider using fireproof metal backup solutions for long-term durability.
