Start Base
1
Download a Supported Wallet
Choose from wallets like MetaMask, Rabby Wallet, or Coinbase Wallet that support the Base blockchain.
Follow the wallet’s setup instructions to create a new wallet
2
Save Your Private Key
During the setup process, you’ll be given a private key or recovery phrase. Save this securely; it’s the only way to recover your wallet if you lose access.
3
Connect to Base Network
Ensure your wallet is configured to connect to the Base blockchain. You may need to add Base as a custom network using the network settings in your wallet.
Importing an Existing Wallet
If you already have an EVM wallet, you can seamlessly add the Base chain to your wallet. Just select the chain, find Base, and add it.
