Slow and steady wins the race
Bitcoin is often critized for being slow in everything

More from Crypto
You are running out of time to get ahead in cryptocurrency.
You know what's coming:
🔺️ Regulation
🔺️ More shutdowns
🔺️ Banks deciding who gets to do business
It's time you got your own crypto wallet.
Don't know how? I'll show you.

METAMASK
What's metamask? It's a wallet. That you -- I mean YOU -- own.
You see, when you buy crypto through an exchange like CoinBase, you own it but only kind of.
If they get
🔺 Hacked
🔺 Shutdown
🔺 Servers crash
-- your money is STUCK.
We are gonna avoid that 👇
First thing,
Go to
https://t.co/JXAp9o5RzJ
You can download it on your computer. It's a browser extension.
Alternatively, go to the app store on your Android or iPhone. It's there too.
As part of the setup process, you will choose a password.
More importantly though...
SEED PHRASE
As you follow the setup process, you will be given a 12-word seed phrase.
WRITE. THIS. DOWN.
Take it down and guard it like the map to Davey Jones' Locker.
THESE ARE THE ONLY WAY TO RECOVER YOUR ACCOUNT.
DO NOT LOSE.
We good? Great.
Let's continue.
Once you're all setup, your MetaMask wallet is going to look something like the picture below.
See where it says Crypto Address? That's where your actual address will be.
It'll be a random arrangement of letters, numbers, etc.
