Here's a general guide on creating a Coinbase Wallet extension account:
Open Chrome:
Ensure that you are using the Google Chrome browser on your computer.
Visit the Chrome Web Store:
Go to the Chrome Web Store by entering the following URL in the address bar: Chrome Web Store.
Search for Coinbase Wallet:
In the search bar, type "Coinbase Wallet" and press Enter.
Find the Coinbase Wallet Extension:
Look for the official Coinbase Wallet extension in the search results. The extension is usually developed by Coinbase, Inc.
Add to Chrome:
Click on the extension to open its details page.
Click the "Add to Chrome" button. You may be prompted to confirm the installation.
Confirm Installation:
Confirm the installation by clicking "Add Extension" in the pop-up confirmation window.
Access Coinbase Wallet:
After installation, you may see the Coinbase Wallet icon in your browser's toolbar. Click on the icon to open the Coinbase Wallet extension.
Sign Up:
If you don't have a Coinbase account, you will need to sign up. Look for an option like "Sign Up" or "Create Account" within the extension.
Provide Information:
Follow the on-screen instructions to provide the necessary information, which may include your email address, password, and other details.
Secure Your Account:
Set up any additional security features offered by Coinbase, such as two-factor authentication (2FA), to enhance the security of your wallet.
Backup Your Wallet:
Follow Coinbase's instructions to backup your wallet. This usually involves creating a recovery phrase or seed phrase. Store this phrase securely.
Always refer to Coinbase's official documentation or support for the most accurate and up-to-date information. If there have been changes or updates since my last knowledge update in January 2022, it's essential to check Coinbase's official resources.
