  1. Create New Account
    This option allows you to create a new multi-chain account using your current seed phrase.

    • If you already have multiple seed phrases imported, you'll be given the option to choose which seed phrase you want to use for creating the new multi-chain account.
  2. Connect Hardware Wallet
    This option will guide you through the Ledger onboarding flow, enabling you to connect your Ledger wallets to Phantom.

  3. Import Secret Recovery Phrase
    Use this option if you want to add an existing seed phrase to your Phantom app. By doing so, you’ll import all wallets associated with that seed phrase. Remember, this, along with private key imports, work with all chains that Phantom supports!

  4. Import Private Key
    This option is for importing a single wallet using its private key.

  5. Watch Address
    This option allows you to add a wallet as a view-only account. You can monitor transactions and balances without the ability to perform any transactions.
