During the wallet creation process, the system will generate a 12-word Secret Recovery Phrase (mnemonic phrase) for you.

It is the unique "key" to your wallet. Possessing the mnemonic phrase means having full control over all assets in the wallet. Therefore, it is crucial to store your mnemonic phrase securely.

Follow the on-screen instructions to record your mnemonic phrase in order, and verify it in the next step. Once verified, your new wallet will be successfully created!

{% hint style="danger" %} <mark style="color:$danger;">**Secure Storage Recommendations:**</mark>

* **Offline Backup:** Write down the mnemonic phrase on paper and store it in a safe place, such as a safe.
* **No Screenshots:** Do not save the mnemonic phrase as a screenshot or text file on any internet-connected device.
* **Do Not Share:** Never share your mnemonic phrase with anyone under any circumstances. The CornWallet team will never ask for your mnemonic phrase.
  {% endhint %}

## **Quick Overview of Basic Concepts**

* **Wallet Address:** Similar to your bank account number, it is used to receive cryptocurrency assets. You can safely share your wallet address with others.
* **Private Key:** The password that controls your wallet's assets. The mnemonic phrase is a more user-friendly form of the private key. Never share it with anyone.
* **Gas Fee:** The network fee required to conduct transactions or perform operations on a blockchain, usually paid in the blockchain's native token (e.g., ETH on Ethereum).
* **Multi-Chain Wallet:** A wallet that supports multiple different blockchain networks (such as Ethereum, Arbitrum, Solana, etc.).
