What is a Crypto Wallet?
🤔 Think of it like this:
A crypto wallet is like a digital bank account that only you control. But unlike a bank:
🏦 No bank needed - You are your own bank
🔑 You hold the keys - Only you can access your money
🌍 Works worldwide - Send money anywhere, anytime
What can you do with LF Wallet?
Store digital money (cryptocurrencies)
Send money to friends and family
Receive payments from anyone
Connect to websites that use crypto
Create Your First Wallet
🎯 Let's Set Up Your Wallet (5 minutes)
When you open LF Wallet for the first time:
Tap "Create New Wallet"
This creates a brand new wallet just for you
Set a Passcode / Face ID (optional)
Choose numbers you'll remember
This protects the app on your phone
Repeat it!
Optional: Set up the Face ID (or skip it)
IMPORTANT: Your 24 Recovery Words
The app will show you 24 special words:
Write them down on paper (yes, actual paper!)
Keep them in order (1-24)
Store the paper somewhere safe
Check the 'I understand and confirm that I have saved my phrase' checkbox
Press the 'Confirm' button
Success!
Your wallet is ready to use:
And you can see your assets
⚠️ Critical: Those 24 words are like the master key to your wallet. Anyone with these words can access your money. Never share them with ANYONE!
Understanding Your Recovery Phrase
🔐 Your 24 Magic Words
Think of your 24-word recovery phrase like:
