This article will explain how to create a LWF wallet on their Blockchain.
There are two wallets available at the moment:
This article will only cover the web wallet, although it's almost the same for the desktop wallet.
STEP 1
Go to the following website: https://wallet.lwf.io
You will see this in the middle of the page:
Select "NEW ACCOUNT"
STEP 2
Now you will see this in the middle of the page:
The system will generate a random passphrase which is very important to keep save. By clicking "SAVE PASSPHRASE" the passphrase will be downloadable in a .txt file
Note that YOU and only YOU are responsible for keeping the passphrase save as nobody else will be able to recover it once it's lost. When it's lost nobody will be able to recover the funds on that account.
Once you saved the passphrase click on "NEXT STEP"
STEP 3
Now you will see this in the middle of the page:
Re-enter the passphrase you just saved and click on "CONFIRM" to create your LWF wallet
Congratulations, you just created your own LWF wallet
STEP 4: A LITTLE TOUR
Now you will see this page:
- That is your public LWF address;
- This will show how much LWF you have on this account;
- With the "SEND" button you can transfer your LWF to another account;
- By pressing this button you'll see some options.
STEP 5
This step is not necessary but it is very much recommended to secure your wallet to its fullest!
By pressing the #4 button from "STEP 4" you will get some options. It's recommended to create a 2nd Passphrase. This 2nd Passphrase will be an extra security when sending transaction from your wallet.
- The 1st Passphrase will be used to login to your wallet;
- The 2nd Passphrase will be necessary (once created) to transfer funds from this wallet.
To create a 2nd Passphrase just follow the same steps as described in STEP 2 & 3 and confirm it with your 1st Passphrase.
Note that the cost of creating a 2nd Passphrase is the blockchain transaction fee (0.1 LWF).
STEP 6
Wouldn't it be nice to get more LWF by doing (almost) nothing?
Well it can if you take a little bit of time to vote for forgers that are in the top 201. I will be writing an article/guide about it soon and reference it here. What do you mean by voting? forgers? top 201? Don't worry that will also be explained in that same article/guide.
- EDIT: The article/guide has been published. Click HERE to go to it now.
But for now, enjoy your LWF!
