The OKX Wallet is a non-custodial crypto wallet which provides a multi-chain connection, including ETHW. In this article, we’ll cover how the OKX Wallet works and how to use it with the ETHW network:
- Where to download the OKX Wallet app
- How to create a new OKX Wallet
- How to import an existing wallet into OKX Wallet
- How to make OKX Wallet your browser’s default Web3 wallet
- How to connect OKX Wallet to a DApp
- How to withdraw funds from OKX
- How to get assistance with the OKX Wallet
You can download OKX Wallet from the Chrome or Firefox browser extension web stores.
You can create a new OKX Wallet in two steps.
Step I: Create a wallet
Click Create a wallet. Next, follow the prompts to create a password.
Please note that if you forget or lose your password, the only way to recover your wallet is to reset it using your seed phrase or private key to reset it.
Step 2: Save your seed phrase
When the app reveals your seed phrase, make a copy of it. Your seed phrase is the key to your wallet. You can use your seed phrase to reload your wallet on any device. But if someone steals your seed phrase, they will have unlimited access to your wallet and the assets inside it.
One way to keep your seed phrase safe from electronic theft is to write it down on a piece of paper and store it in a safe place.
OKX Wallet allows you to import an existing OKX Wallet, or a wallet from another Web3 Wallet app like Metamask.
Step 1: Import a wallet
Click Import wallet.
Step 2: Load the wallet
Enter your private key or seed phrase to load your existing wallet into OKX Wallet.
Your complete wallet and all assets in it will be available in OKX Wallet.
