💡Create a Wallet
To get started on SupSwap, the first thing you'll need is to set up a wallet that supports Mode Network (MODE). Wallets are available both on desktop computers and on smartphone devices. You'll need to choose the wallet that fits your needs best.
When you're setting up a wallet, be sure to:
✅ Download and install only the latest version from an official source.
✅ Follow the setup guide carefully.
✅ Safely back up your recovery phrases.
❌ NEVER share your recovery phrases with anyone, under any circumstances.
❌ NEVER input your recovery phrase to a website or app, other than your wallet app.

NEVER, in any situation, should you ever give someone your private key or recovery phrase ("seed phrase"). This will give someone complete access to your crypto!
The genuine SupSwap site and staff will never ask you to input your seed phrase.
