Guide to setting up a Solana Wallet
Phantom is a popular and secure Solana wallet that allows you to store, manage, and interact with Solana-based assets and decentralized applications (dApps) like Squirrel Swap. Here's how to set it up:
Download Phantom Wallet
For mobile users, download the Phantom app from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play (Android).
For desktop users, install the Phantom browser extension by visiting Phantom.app. It is compatible with Chrome, Firefox, and Edge.
Create a New Wallet or Import an Existing One
After installing the Phantom wallet, open the app or extension.
Select Create New Wallet to generate a new Solana wallet, or if you already have an existing wallet, click Import Wallet and enter your recovery phrase.
Secure Your Wallet
Make sure to write down your recovery phrase and store it in a secure place. This phrase is critical for restoring your wallet in case you lose access to your device.
Phantom will ask you to confirm the recovery phrase to ensure you've stored it properly.
Set Up a Password
Set a strong password to protect your wallet and make it more secure.
Now, you’re ready to manage your Solana assets and interact with dApps like Squirrel Swap!
