Never Lose Access: a Guide to Managing Your Fuelet Wallet

Creating a wallet is a necessity when you enter the world of Web3. It’s a gate to the blockchain and apps you want to use. However, managing your account might be challenging for newbies in crypto. If all the 12-word seed phrases, long private keys, and passwords are still confusing, this article is what you need. Here we’ll briefly show how never to lose access to your funds in Fuelet Wallet.

Easy for Beginners: Seedless Account Security

With the Fuelet Wallet Cloud Backup feature, it’s possible to securely store your private key on your Google Drive for Android or in the iCloud for iOS without typing it in there manually or writing it down which helps you to avoid risks associated with it: your data being compromised by a malicious app that can copy everything from your clipboard or your seed phrase being captured in a photo by someone behind you. The Cloud Backup also allows you to create a new wallet in seconds.

*Note that this feature is not available for Chrome.

Follow these few easy steps to activate Cloud Backup:

6. Click on the “Backup Wallet” button.
7. Done! You’ve saved your wallet seed phrase without copying it.

This is a somewhat centralized way to keep your wallet’s private keys but let’s be honest: it’s easier to lose a paper with the seed phrase written down there than for Apple or Google to compromise your data.

It is the first level of Seedless Account Security in Fuelet. We’ll also implement such features as Hardware Signer and Social Recovery with 2FA via your phone number and email. You can learn more about Seedless Security Methods in our wallet in this article.

A Guide to Your Seed Phrase

SAVE your seed phrase, keep it in a SAFE place, and NEVER share it with anyone — those are the three main rules of managing a seed phrase in crypto.

Avoid storing it digitally or on your phone, as these methods increase the risk of loss or unauthorized access. Choose a physical location or consider using specialized services designed to store sensitive data securely. Treat your seed phrase as a valuable possession, and it will mitigate the risk of accidental loss or theft.

Your Private Key Management

Your seed phrase generates a few wallet accounts and each of them will have a private key. So, your private key is not the same as your seed phrase. Nevertheless, it is crucial to handle it with the same level of caution. Why? Sometimes, your private key might be the only way to activate your wallets. For example, if you lost your seed phrase or need to interact with a dapp that doesn’t support seed phrases.
