ICP: How to Create an Internet Computer Wallet
It was a bit troublesome to create the ICP wallet. There was no one to guide me at the time, so I spent most of the day tinkering with it. The old Mac I was using at the time couldn't perform face authentication, which made me furious.
ICP also supports recharging using plug wallet, plug is a third-party plug-in wallet!
No installation required to create a wallet
1. Enter https://nns.ic0.app/ (A VPN may be required in mainland China), and click the [Sign with InternetIdentity] button to start creating.
2. Click: [Create Internet Identity]
3. Select: [Create Passkey] (Passkey refers to the public and private key pair stored in the hardware device. Generally, computers and mobile devices support fingerprint recognition or face recognition, or can be used through Ledger/One key and other hardware that supports Fido Wallet device), so that in the future, you can log in directly through fingerprint/face or hardware device, without having to enter a password every time. Afterwards, the Chrome browser will pop up a confirmation box, prompting you that the local device will be used to store the key, click [Continue].
If this is not supported, you can choose Continue withoutPasskey. In this case, you need to set a pin password, similar to the metamsk login password, so that you need to enter the password every time you log in. Notice! ! Do not clear the browser's stored data easily, unless you have written down the mnemonic phrase and Internet ID number, otherwise you will permanently lose your assets!!
4. Enter the verification code in the next step (note: case sensitive) to confirm that you are not a robot.
5. Create an Internet identity ID (this string of numbers). This ID will be used as part of your account recovery, so be sure to save it carefully! ! Click Copy to copy. It is best to copy it manually in a private notebook. Continue to click [I saved it, Continue].
6. At this time, the account creation is completed and you will automatically enter the nns page. At this time, select the icon in the upper right corner and click Logout to log out first.
7. Select the account you just created to log in again and click the arrow.
8. Select [Create Recovery Phrase]. This step is to generate a mnemonic phrase bound to the Internet identity.
9. Copy the mnemonic words together with the ID, or write them down in a notebook. Be sure to copy them in order (mark the order of each word when copying, and do not leave out the ID number at the top, they are all together!) Check [I have safely stored my recovery phrase.], and then click [Continue].
10. After the copying is completed, several positions will be randomly selected for you to fill in the mnemonic phrase and ID number just now to confirm that you have memorized it. After filling in the information correctly, a check mark will appear, and then click Finish.
11.恭喜你，你的第一个互联网身份创建成功，接下来就可以充值ICP代币啦！
12. Log in again and enter the nns interface.
The recharge speed of ICP is very fast!
