Follow the instructions in this guide for help importing your wallet into Enkrypt and claiming your $ARB airdrop on Arbitrum!


Install Enkrypt

You’ll first need to install the extension to begin. Visit Enkrypt.com to find the download link that corresponds with your browser. Click download in the top right corner.

You’ll be redirected to the download page shown below. Note that every browser’s download page will look slightly different from each other.

Add the extension to your browser. After downloading and installing Enkrypt you’re ready to go.


Restore Wallet

When first opening up the extension, you’ll be met with a window containing a quick description of Enkrypt. You can create a new wallet or restore an existing wallet. If you're expecting the Arbitrum $ARB airdrop, you already have a crypto wallet. In order to import an existing wallet into Enkrypt, follow the steps below.

Click on “Restore existing wallet”.

Next, click “Use recovery phrase”.

Enter your 12-24 word recovery phrase and click “Next”.

After entering your recovery phrase, your wallet is ready! Make sure to pin Enkrypt to your extension bar for quick access!

Once you’ve got your wallet setup, you’ll be greeted with the pop-up shown below. Enter your password to proceed. Alternatively, if you’ve forgotten your password, click the link at the bottom entitled “I forgot my password” to begin the password recovery process. Remember, Enkrypt can't recover the password for you – you will need your recovery phrase to reset password.
