MetaMask is the most popular cryptocurrency wallet in the world.

Follow this simple guide to setup your Metamask Wallet for LFJ and Joepegs

1. Download and Install MetaMask

  • Browser Extension:

    • Visit the official MetaMask website and click "Download."

    • Choose your browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, or Brave) and add the MetaMask extension.

  • Mobile App:

2. Create a New Wallet

  • Open MetaMask: After installation, open the extension or app.

  • Get Started: Click "Get Started" on the welcome page.

  • Create a Wallet: Select “Create a Wallet” and agree (or disagree) to share anonymous usage data.

3. Set a Strong Password

  • Enter a secure password of at least 8 characters and confirm it.

  • Important: This password is for accessing MetaMask on your current device, not for recovery.

4. Backup Your Secret Recovery Phrase

  • MetaMask will show you a 12-word Secret Recovery Phrase (also known as a seed phrase).

  • Write it down or store it securely offline. This is the only way to recover your wallet if you lose access.

  • Confirm your seed phrase by selecting the words in the correct order.

5. Access Your Wallet

  • After confirming your seed phrase, you'll be taken to your new MetaMask wallet interface.

  • Here, you can view your Ethereum (ETH) balance, add tokens, and connect to decentralized applications (dApps).

6. Fund Your Wallet

  • To use MetaMask, you'll need to add some cryptocurrency (like Ethereum).

  • Click "Buy" to purchase crypto through an exchange, or "Receive" to get your wallet address and transfer crypto from another wallet or exchange.

7. Connect to LFJ

  • You can use MetaMask to interact with the LFJ exchange by clicking 'Connect Wallet' in the top right of the platform: https://lfj.gg/

Now your MetaMask wallet is set up and ready to use! Remember, always keep your Secret Recovery Phrase private and secure. Never share it with anyone.
