Many old fans are very interested in the ICP network, but have limited knowledge of blockchain and don’t know how to store tokens. So today, Blocksir will teach you how to create a wallet.
Internet Computer Network (ICP) uses Internet identity to log in to nns and recharge ICP tokens. This article mainly explains how to create an ICP wallet and save tokens through the nns page. Of course, in addition to this method, ICP also supports recharging using the plug wallet method, which will not be explained in detail here.
No installation required to create a wallet
Enter https://nns.ic0.app/ (a VPN may be required in mainland China), and click the [Sign with Internet Identity] button to start creating.
Click: [Create Internet Identity]
Select: [Create Passkey] (Passkey refers to the public-private key pair stored in the hardware device. Generally, computers and mobile devices support fingerprint recognition or face recognition, or can be used through hardware wallet devices such as Ledger/One key that support Fido). In this way, you can log in directly through fingerprint/face or hardware devices in the future without having to enter a password every time. After that, 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 without Passkey. In this case, you need to set a pin password, similar to metamsk's login password, so 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! ! !
Next enter the verification code (note: case sensitive) to confirm that you are not a robot.
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].
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.
Select the account you just created to log in again and click the arrow.
Select [Create Recovery Phrase]. This step is to generate a mnemonic phrase bound to the Internet identity.
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!) and then check [ I have safely stored my recovery phrase.], and then click [Continue].
Notice! ! ! Never save mnemonic phrases in network disks/online notes/WeChat/QQ and other online spaces!
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, there will be a check mark, and then click Finish.
Congratulations🎉🎉🎉, your first Internet identity has been successfully created, and you can now recharge ICP tokens!
Log in again and enter the nns interface.
Click Receive, copy the ICP Address and you can recharge. ICP recharge is very fast and the funds will be credited to your account in a few seconds.
