3. Copy your secret recovery phrase

Make sure to save your private key. Your private key provides full access to your wallet and funds.

• Hemi team members will never ask you for private keys.

• Do not share it with anyone.

After you have saved your private key in a secure area, click 'Continue.'

4. Select address type

Hemi currently uses two primary address types:

• Legacy (P2PKH): PoP mining currently requires a P2PKH address, although this may change at some point in the future.

• Native SegWit (P2WPKH): For everything else on Hemi (i.e., Bitcoin tunneling), any address type can be used but P2WPKH will (generally) be the cheapest fee-wise.

We recommend creating a Native SegWit wallet to jumpstart in the Bitcoin ecosystem. New wallets and other address types can be created in the future.

After you have selected your address type, click 'Continue.'
