Keplr

The Keplr browser extension is a wallet for accessing some Jackal applications in the Cosmos ecosystem. Keplr can be used to exchange/manage JKL and other Cosmos-based tokens, participate in governance, and use Jackal Storage.

Set up Keplr​

More information about setting up a Keplr wallet can be found in the official Keplr Documentation.

Open the Keplr extension on your browser. If you are setting up Keplr for the first time, you can either create a new account or import an existing account.

Create a new account​

There are two ways to create a new Keplr account:

Most Secure

  • Mnemonic/seed phrase.

Easiest

  • One-click login.

Create an account with a Seed Phrase​

  1. In the initial pop-up window, choose Create New Account
    • If you have used Keplr before, click on the silhouette in the upper-right corner, then the blue box labeled Add Account, and select Create New Account.
  2. Choose to have a seed/mnemonic phrase of 24 words, and save the phrase.
  3. Enter a name for your account. This can be changed later.
  4. Once you have transcribed your 24 word seed/mnemonic phrase, click on Next
  5. To confirm the creation of the new account, click on the words on the right order in which they appear in your seed/mnemonic phrase, and press Register.
  6. If you have not used Keplr before, set a password for the Keplr extension, and click Confirm.

Import an existing account​

There are several ways to import an existing account:

  • via a mnemonic/seed phrase/private key.
  • via ledger.

Import with a Seed Phrase

  1. In the initial pop-up window, choose Import Existing Account If you have used Keplr before, click on the silhouette in the upper-right corner, then the blue box labeled Add Account, and select Import Existing Account.
  2. Enter your mnemonic/seed phrase/private key in the appropriate slot, seperating the words with spaces and make sure to check they are spelled correctly.
  3. Make sure you have imported the account with the correct derivation path, viewable by clicking on Advanced.
    • Normally, the derivation path should be m/44'/…’/0/0/0, but if you see that importing the account via mnemonic on Keplr, the Cosmos Mainnet address displayed is different than yours, it is possible the derivation path ends with 1 (or another number) instead of 0.
    • If this is the case, you just have to start the process over, and replace the last 0 with 1
    • Learn more in the Keplr FAQ
  4. If you have not used Keplr before, set a password for the Keplr extension, and click Confirm.

Import with Ledger

  1. In the initial pop-up window, choose Import Ledger.
    • If you have used Keplr before, click on the silhouette in the upper-right corner, then the blue box labeled Add Account, and select Import Ledger.
  2. To complete the connection with your Ledger Nano Hard Wallet, follow the steps described in the pop-up that appears. A detailed tutorial can be found here.
  3. If you have not used Keplr before, set a password for the Keplr extension, and click Confirm.

Connecting Keplr to the Jackal Protocol​
