Since firmware v 1.5 you can only generate a wallet with the Perfect Key format.
If you want to make a backup of 24 words instead, you can do so after setting up your wallet. Both the Perfect Key and 24 word seed phrase versions of your backup can be found via Settings → Display secret key.
Set up your ZERO for the first time and create your very own NGRAVE Perfect Key. The most secure way in the market to create your own wallet. Oh, and it's so easy!
To get started, you will be guided through these steps:
- Verify your ZERO
- Set a PIN code
- Register a fingerprint
Then select Create a wallet on the Choose your wallet screen to proceed with creating your wallet.
Based on the randomness, generated by the internal chip, combined with your fingerprint, personalised keys are generated on the spot.
- You can now freeze and unfreeze key values. After doing this a few times, continue by taping the Next button.
- You can now select groups of 8 characters and shuffle their values while the other part of the key remains the same. You can repeat this as many times as you like.
This interaction with the key ensures that you and you alone have seen and know the value of your key.
In the next step you will see your personalized key, created fully offline and seen by you alone.
- Before you continue, you first have to make a backup of your key, as it is crucial to be able to recover your assets if you break or lose your ZERO.
- You can do this with GRAPHENE, or use the recovery paper that came with the box.
