🚀 Getting Started

1

Create or Import Wallet

Click "Connect Wallet" to create a new wallet or import an existing one using your 12-word seed phrase. Your wallet manages both Bitcoin and AirCash tokens.

3

Start Using AirCash

⚠️ Critical: Address Types & Usage

Your wallet has TWO different addresses - do NOT mix them up!

Bitcoin Address

🪙

AirCash Wallet ID

Starts with "acw_..." - Use ONLY for receiving AirCash tokens from other AirCash users.

🚨 DO NOT MIX THESE UP!
  • Never send Bitcoin to your AirCash wallet ID - Bitcoin will be lost!
  • Never send AirCash tokens to your Bitcoin address - Tokens will be lost!
  • Always double-check the address type before sending
  • Bitcoin address = Bitcoin funding only
  • AirCash wallet ID = AirCash tokens only
