Setting Up Your Desktop Wallet
New desktop users:
Step 1: Select "Create New Wallet"
Step 2: Create a secure password which you will use to access your new wallet in the future (note: this password will only be used on your current device and browser profile you installed the wallet in.) This password will only be used for you to more easily secure your Phantom wallet(s)in your current browser profile.
