Set up a Solana wallet.
Pick a wallet, protect your recovery phrase and get ready for your first launch.
Your keys, your Printer.
A wallet is your account on Solana. Printer connects to it and never holds it for you.
Pick a wallet you trust
Phantom, Solflare and Backpack are popular Solana wallets for browsers and phones. Download a wallet only from its official site or your phone's app store, never from a link in a reply or DM.
Write down your recovery phrase
When you create a wallet it shows a recovery phrase of 12 or 24 words. Write it on paper and keep it offline. Anyone with those words controls the wallet, and no real team, site or app will ever ask you for them.
Add some SOL
Every Solana transaction pays a small network fee in SOL. Buy SOL in your wallet or on an exchange, then send it to your wallet address. When you use a new address, send a small test amount first.
Connect, then read every request
Connecting a wallet only shares its public address. Before anything moves, your wallet shows what a request will do. Read it, and approve only what you expect.
