Getting Started
A short walkthrough to get you from "downloaded the app" to "ready to use".
1. Install the app
BlockVault is available on Android and iOS. Grab it from the official app stores.
2. Create or import a wallet
On first launch you'll choose:
- Create a new wallet. The app generates a fresh recovery phrase (12 or 24 words). Write it down on paper and keep it somewhere safe. This is the only way to recover your wallet — there is no email reset, no support line, nobody who can get it back for you if you lose it.
- Import an existing wallet. Type in an existing recovery phrase to restore your addresses on every supported chain.
Then set a password. This password encrypts your recovery phrase on the device. Pick something strong and memorable.
Optionally, turn on biometrics (Face ID, Touch ID or fingerprint) so you don't have to type the password every time.
3. Link your Telegram (optional, for rewards)
If you want to participate in the BLVC rewards program, connect your Telegram account with the in-app sign-in flow. This is what links your wallet to your community profile and unlocks vesting, referrals and other rewards.
You can skip this step and use the wallet without it.
4. Register your wallet (optional, for rewards)
If you connected Telegram, the next step registers your Ethereum address with the BlockVault platform. The app will:
- Check that the device is genuine.
- Ask you to sign a message proving you own the wallet.
- Register the address and look up any rewards you're eligible for.
If you have a referral code, enter it here.
5. Pick your vesting plan (if eligible)
If you qualify for vesting rewards, you'll choose between:
| Plan | Tokens | When |
|---|---|---|
| Single Claim | 4,200 BLVC | Once, right away |
| Weekly Claim | 10,400 BLVC | 100 BLVC per week, for two years |
Pick carefully — this choice can't be changed.
6. Start using BlockVault
You're ready. Some things to try:
- Wallet — send and receive across 13 blockchains.
- AI Assistant — ask it for your balances, prepare a transfer, or just chat about crypto. By default it runs on your phone.
- Web3 Browser — open a DEX or NFT marketplace and BlockVault connects automatically.
- DeFi — browse curated yield strategies on EVM chains.
- RWA Explorer — discover tokenized real-world assets.
- Perps — trade perpetual futures on dYdX v4.
Tips
- Back up your recovery phrase before adding real funds. Lose it and the funds are gone.
- Never type your phrase into any website, app or message. BlockVault will never ask for it after setup.
- Start small. Move a tiny amount first, confirm it arrives, then go bigger.
