Guides: From Setup to Advanced Usage
Whether you're new to crypto or an experienced user, our step-by-step guides walk you through essential tasks with clear explanations and best practices.
Getting Started — Setup Guide
1. Download & Install: Choose your device and download the official Abraxas app from our website or your app store. Always verify the source to avoid phishing sites.
2. Create Wallet: Open the app and select "Create Wallet." Write down your recovery seed phrase and store it offline in more than one secure location.
3. Secure Your Wallet: Set a strong password and enable biometric login where available. Turn on two-factor authentication (2FA) for additional protection.
4. Add Funds: Receive crypto by sharing your wallet address or scanning a QR code. Always verify the address before sending large sums.
Sending & Receiving Crypto
To send crypto, choose the currency, enter the recipient address, set a fee (or use the recommended setting), and confirm. For receiving, share a receiving address or QR code. Keep receipts for your records.
Tip: Use address labels to keep track of frequent recipients and avoid mistakes during repeat transfers.
Advanced: Hardware Wallet Integration
Abraxas supports popular hardware wallets so high-value holdings remain offline. Connect your Ledger or Trezor for signing while keeping private keys off-network.
Always ensure firmware and app versions are current before pairing for best security posture.
