To open a new wallet, while you can technically use any wallet as specified in the Tezos Wallet section of the Tools Overview page, for this tutorial, you need to use Kukai.
Go to the Kukai wallet website and select "Create New Wallet" in the top right.
2. You will be given a seed phrase, make sure to record this seed phrase and store it securely. You can follow these best practices. Once recorded, set your password for this account.
Before the wallet can be named, make sure that it has XTZ (the Tezos native currency in it). This can be purchased on almost any centralized exchange like Coinbase, Binance, Kraken or KuCoin based on your location and legal jurisdiction. Once you own XTZ, send it to this newly created wallet.
3. On the next page, select Request and sign the transaction with your Kukai Wallet. Go to the open Kukai tab on your browser to confirm the connection.
4. Select how long you want to register the domain for (1 XTZ is 1 year for ownership) and where the domain points to. Then, select Register. Go to the open Kukai tab on your browser to confirm the transaction.
5. Finally, you now have a named wallet that will serve as the only legitimate source of the NFT certificates.
3. It will then give you the new public address for the account. Select and proceed to your wallet.
Go to Tezos Domains and click in the top right corner. Once on this page, connect your Temple Wallet with the dApp by clicking in the top right corner. Make sure to select and connect with the Kukai Wallet that you want to be the main minting wallet. This will open up a new browser with Kukai and ask you to approve the connection.
2. Back on Tezos Domains, in the main search bar of the page, type in the name you would like to register this address under and select . Once you find a name you like, select the button.
