How does Leap Wallet Work?
Leap Wallet is available as a browser extension and mobile app (iOS and Android) that allows you to manage your assets on Injective securely and efficiently and connect with all the dApps, NFT & gaming projects on Injective. To get started, download the Leap Wallet for the browser.
This guide provides a step-by-step explanation of how to create your Injective desktop wallet using Leap and get started with your exploration of the Injective ecosystem.
Creating your first Injective Wallet
Here’s a video of a step-by-step guide on how to create your Injective wallet using Leap.👇
2. When you open the extension, you will be presented with three options: create a new wallet, import an existing Cosmostation or Keplr wallet, or import using a seed phrase. If you want to create a completely new wallet, choose the option to create a new wallet.
3. You will be shown a seed phrase. Make sure to save this seed phrase in a safe and secure location, as it is the only way to recover your wallet. Do not share this seed phrase with anyone. The seed phrase shown below is for demo purposes.
4. Add the missing words from the seed phrase you have noted down with you. We have enabled this extra step to ensure you write your secret recovery phase with yourself on a piece of paper. Note: We won’t be able to help you recover the wallet if you lost your seed phrase.
5. Create a password to encrypt your wallet. Choose a strong password that you will remember.
6. Your wallet is now set up and ready to use. You can access it by clicking on the Leap Wallet icon in your browser's toolbar. If you are using Chrome, the icon will be located in the top right corner of your browser. If you cannot find the icon, look for a "puzzle piece" icon and click on it to access a list of installed extensions. There, you should find Leap Wallet and you can click on the "pin icon" to pin it to your toolbar for easy access in the future.
7. You can now use your Leap wallet to access your assets and interact with the Injective Network, including staking $INJ tokens and accessing NFTs and dApps in the Injective ecosystem.
Welcome aboard! You now have the best experience navigating Injective securely!🥷
Please note that the Leap wallet is a self-custodial wallet which means you are always in control of your funds and make sure you keep your seed phrase safe.
