You must set up a new browser and email specifically for Web3 activities.

Why? Because using your personal/work browser/email leaves your personal/work data vulnerable to exposure, fraud and theft. Here is a step by step tutorial on how to set up your new browser and email to surf Web3.

1. Install a new internet browser. We recommend using Brave.

2. Set up a new browsing profile.

3. Sign up for a new email account.

This can be used to sign up for social media platforms (e.g. Twitter and Discord) to engage with Web3 communities.


  • Any standard email service should be fine (Google, Outlook, etc).


  • Your new email address should not include your name or numbers that are relevant to you (e.g. your birthday).

  • Also try to avoid including personal names/numbers in your email’s account details.


  • Should you need to provide a name for sign up, you can use an alias.

When creating a strong password, avoid using whole words/names, or numbers that are relevant to you. Words, names, and birthdays are generally easy to hack.

  • We recommend using an online password generator that includes symbols.

  • Do not save your passwords anywhere on your computer - write it down on a piece of paper to store safely, or store it in an online password vault such as 1Password.

You may be asked to provide a mobile number to complete the email account setup. This shouldn't cause any trouble - go ahead! Once you’re set up with a new email address and browser separate from your personal/work accounts, you’re ready to begin exploring Web3.

As an optional step, you may even consider using a VPN for added security.
