MetaMask is a new way to connect
|
||
|
|
to sites and applications.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2
|
||
|
|
00:00:04.580 --> 00:00:08.860
|
||
|
|
On traditional websites, a central database
|
||
|
|
or bank is responsible for controlling and
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3
|
||
|
|
00:00:08.860 --> 00:00:10.179
|
||
|
|
recovering your accounts.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
4
|
||
|
|
00:00:10.179 --> 00:00:15.050
|
||
|
|
But on MetaMask, all of the power belongs
|
||
|
|
to the holder of a master key.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
5
|
||
|
|
00:00:15.050 --> 00:00:18.460
|
||
|
|
Whoever holds the key, controls the accounts.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
00:00:18.460 --> 00:00:21.110
|
||
|
|
Your secret recovery phrase
|
||
|
|
is your "master key".
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
7
|
||
|
|
00:00:21.110 --> 00:00:26.070
|
||
|
|
It's a series of 12 words that are generated
|
||
|
|
when you first set up MetaMask, which allow
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
8
|
||
|
|
00:00:26.070 --> 00:00:30.120
|
||
|
|
you to recover your wallet and funds if you
|
||
|
|
ever lose access.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
9
|
||
|
|
00:00:30.120 --> 00:00:33.451
|
||
|
|
It's important that you secure
|
||
|
|
your wallet by keeping your
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
10
|
||
|
|
00:00:33.451 --> 00:00:37.510
|
||
|
|
secret recovery phrase
|
||
|
|
very safe, and very secret.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
11
|
||
|
|
00:00:37.510 --> 00:00:41.429
|
||
|
|
If anyone gets access to it, they will have
|
||
|
|
the "master key" to your wallet and can
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
12
|
||
|
|
00:00:41.429 --> 00:00:45.190
|
||
|
|
freely access and take all of your funds.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
13
|
||
|
|
00:00:45.190 --> 00:00:50.109
|
||
|
|
To secure your MetaMask wallet you'll want
|
||
|
|
to safely save your secret recovery phrase.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
14
|
||
|
|
00:00:50.109 --> 00:00:54.930
|
||
|
|
You can write it down, hide it somewhere,
|
||
|
|
put it in a safe deposit box
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
15
|
||
|
|
00:00:54.930 --> 00:00:57.729
|
||
|
|
or use a secure password manager.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
16
|
||
|
|
00:00:57.729 --> 00:01:01.050
|
||
|
|
Some users even engrave their
|
||
|
|
phrase onto a metal plate!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
17
|
||
|
|
00:01:01.050 --> 00:01:04.440
|
||
|
|
Nobody, not even the team
|
||
|
|
at MetaMask, can help you
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
18
|
||
|
|
00:01:04.440 --> 00:01:07.820
|
||
|
|
recover your wallet if you lose
|
||
|
|
your secret recovery phrase.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
19
|
||
|
|
00:01:07.820 --> 00:01:12.072
|
||
|
|
If you haven't written down your secret recovery
|
||
|
|
phrase and stored it somewhere safe,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
20
|
||
|
|
00:01:12.072 --> 00:01:15.492
|
||
|
|
do it now. We'll wait.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
21
|
||
|
|
00:01:15.500 --> 00:01:20.780
|
||
|
|
And remember, never share your secret recovery
|
||
|
|
phrase with anyone: not even us.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
22
|
||
|
|
00:01:20.780 --> 00:01:24.910
|
||
|
|
If anyone ever asks you for it,
|
||
|
|
they're trying to scam you.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
23
|
||
|
|
00:01:24.910 --> 00:01:26.250
|
||
|
|
That's it!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
24
|
||
|
|
00:01:26.250 --> 00:01:31.020
|
||
|
|
Now you know what a secret recovery phrase
|
||
|
|
is and how to keep your wallet safe and secure.
