Installation:

1. Supported Browsers:

4. Add to Browser:

   • On the extension page of your browser, click on the "Add to Chrome" (or equivalent) button for Chrome users. Confirm the installation when prompted.

   • For Firefox and Edge users, follow the respective instructions on the Add-ons website to add Keplr to your browser.

5. Access Keplr Wallet:

Setting Up Keplr Wallet:

2. Create or Import a Wallet:

   • If you are a new user, you may need to create a new wallet. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up a password and generate a recovery phrase (seed phrase).

   • If you already have a Cosmos-based wallet, you can choose to import it into Keplr by providing the relevant information or using the recovery phrase.

3. Connect to Cosmos Apps:

   • Keplr allows users to connect their wallets to various Cosmos-based decentralized applications (DApps). Explore Cosmos-based platforms or DApps that support Keplr, and connect your wallet to start interacting with them.

4. Manage Assets:

   • Once your wallet is set up and connected, you can manage your Cosmos-based assets, delegate or stake ATOM tokens, and participate in other activities within the Cosmos ecosystem.

Security Considerations:

• Follow security best practices, such as keeping your recovery phrase secure, enabling two-factor authentication if available, and ensuring that you only download the extension from the official sources.

• Be cautious of phishing attempts and ensure that you are interacting with the legitimate Keplr extension.
