🔥 We have started to deploy Minter Mainnet Console available at console.minter.network. You can already create a new wallet for the main network!
Do not forget that a seed phrase (12 words) generated upon the wallet creation is the key to all your funds. That is why we highly recommend you store it in a safe place and use it for authorization in official services only.

The guide below has all you need to know:
