OKX NFT is a Web3.0 application that allows users to access the platform without traditional registration methods like phone numbers or emails. Instead, all you need is a crypto wallet. This guide will walk you through everything from wallet creation to buying, selling, and creating NFTs on both web and app platforms.
1. How to Create an OKX NFT Account
Since OKX NFT operates on Web3.0 principles, owning a wallet means having an OKX NFT account. The platform supports three plugin wallets: OKX Web3 Wallet, MetaMask, and Phantom. Follow these steps if you don't have a wallet yet:
- Visit the OKX official website and navigate to the Web3 Wallet section. Click Connect Wallet and select OKX Web3 Wallet, then choose Install Plugin.
- After installing the plugin, click Connect Wallet again and select Create Wallet. Set up a password and confirm it.
A backup prompt will appear. Click Back Up Now and enter your wallet password to view the recovery phrase.
Important:
- Write down your recovery phrase on paper and store it securely.
- OKX Web3 Wallet doesn't store your recovery phrase or private keys on its servers.
- Lost recovery phrases mean lost assets—OKX cannot help recover them.
- Once backed up, your wallet is ready for NFT transactions.
