How to Securely and Correctly Backup Your Wallet?

NeoLine is a decentralized wallet that does not store your private keys or secret recovery phrase. This means that if you lose your private key and secret recovery phrase, you lose control of your assets. Therefore, it is crucial to back up your wallet and keep it safe.

Here are the steps:

Click the icon next to your address on the wallet homepage and select [Account details] — [Show private key] / [Show secret recovery phrase], then enter your wallet password to securely back up your wallet.

Backup Private Key:

The private key consists of numbers and both uppercase and lowercase letters. When backing up, users should pay special attention to distinguishing between numbers and letters. Write it down by hand and store it securely to avoid leakage.

Backup Secret Recovery Phrase:

The secret recovery phrase is another form of the private key, typically composed of 12 random words. Compared to the private key, it is recommended to back up the secret recovery phrase because words are easier to back up. In the NeoLine Chrome Extension, one secret recovery phrase can manage assets across multiple EVM-compatible chains. When backing up, make sure to write down the words in the correct order.
