Make sure you store your secret phrase somewhere safe. In the event of a device crash or a browser reset, this is the only way to recover your funds. It is recommended that you write it down. Most people write down their 12-word phrase on a piece of paper and store it in a place where only they can access it. (Make sure you write down the words in the correct order)
In the event that your seed phrase is lost, MetaMask will not be able to assist you in recovering your wallet, and your funds will be lost forever.
Never share your seed phrase or private key with anyone, unless you want them to have full control over your funds.
After you store your secret phrase somewhere safe, click on ββNextββ
Confirm your seed phrase in the correct order and click on ββConfirmββ
