Setting up your Vaullt account is simple. Follow these steps to ensure a seamless onboarding process.
1) Digital Currency (ETH)
You will need Ethereum (ETH) digital currency in order to operate on Vaullt for things like minting NFTs, buying NFTs, and paying gas gees. We recommend doing this with a major digital currency exchange such as Coinbase.
You will also need a crypto wallet.
2) Crypto Wallet
A crypto wallet, such as MetaMask, stores your ETH and processes transactions on the Ethereum blockchain. A unique wallet address will be generated and you will use this address to complete transactions.
All transactions connected to your wallet address can be found on etherscan.io. We recommend checking Etherscan after completing each transaction.
Why do you need a wallet before buying and selling on Vaullt?
Vaullt has created tools to make your interaction with the blockchain sure and simple, but a secure wallet from a trusted source is needed to enable us to properly do that. In short, we are doing what it takes to make a much more complicated process easily available at your fingertips. You worry about minting, buying, and selling, and leave the rest to us. We’ll make sure that the value you hold in NFTs is sure and protected for as long as you want.
