How do I set up my Metamask wallet?
After you have installed Metamask, you will need to set up a wallet (or a “vault” as Metamask calls it). This is where you will store your cryptocurrencies.
Step 1. Click on the Metamask logo in the upper right hand corner of your Google Chrome browser.
Step 2. Read and agree to the terms and conditions. You may have to agree to 2 to 3 pages worth of terms.
Step 3. Enter a password and click “Create” to create your wallet. You will use this password whenever you want to access your wallet.
Step 4. You will see a set of 12 “seed words” for your vault. Click “Save Seed Words as File” and copy the “MetaMask Seed Words” file that is downloaded to a safe place. You will need it to access your vault.
**A “seed phrase” is a secret recovery phrase that you will need in case you forget your password. Make sure you write it down and do not share it with anyone else. If you lose your seed phrase, you will lose access to your crypto!
Step 5. Click “I’ve Copied It Somewhere Safe” once your seed words file has been secured. You’ll be taken into your Metamask wallet!
