Download Phantom Wallet app: Download from App Store or Google Play
Create a new wallet: Open the app and select “Create New Wallet” Enter your password and select "Continue". You will be presented with your “Seed Phrase” be sure to store it in a safe and secure location! Then select "Continue" and you’re good to go ! Important: Note this phrase down and store it in a secure location that only you can access.
Buy some SOL: Copy your wallet’s SOL address, it’s available in the upper right part of phantom app just in the QR Icon. Now use Apple Pay or Google pay to get some Solana and then transfer SOL in your freshly created phantom wallet by pasting your SOL address. There’s several providers but you can use Moonpay for instance.
Purchase $STAR: To buy an SFT on our marketplace you have two options: pay in Solana or pay with our in-game token the $STAR for a slightly lower amount. You can purchase this token through various influential swap services or directly from our Shop.
Purchase a Starminer: Head over the hub at starminers.xyz using the embed browser in your wallet’s app (Globe icon on the lower right in phantom) and then log-in. From the “mint” protocol you’ll be granted with a random SFT: a whole new ship, your starminer. Keep some SOL in your wallet as well for transaction fees.
Congrats you finished the onboarding program, well done commander ! After the purchase of a ship, you can start your Starminers journey immediately ! Just send your ship to work from the Dock and get it to mine asteroids to earn $STAR.
