## 👛 Adding a BNB Wallet

The Leap BNB Bot supports any **EVM-compatible wallet** on the Binance Smart Chain (BSC).\
You can import an existing wallet using your private key or create a new one directly from the bot interface.

***

### ➕ Add a Wallet

#### **Import Wallet**

Use this option if you already have a wallet.

1. Click **Add Wallet → Import Wallet**
2. Paste your **private key** in the field
3. Click **Save**

> ⚠️ Keep your private key safe — anyone with access to it can control your wallet.\
> Leap encrypts your private key locally using your system’s secure keychain, and your data is never transmitted externally.

***

#### **Create Wallet**

If you prefer to start fresh, you can generate a new wallet directly inside the bot.

1. Click **Add Wallet → Create Wallet**
2. Leap will automatically create a new EVM wallet for BSC
3. Copy and securely store your **private key** somewhere safe

> 💡 The bot does **not** back up wallets externally. Always save the key in a password manager or encrypted document.

***

#### **Transfer Funds**

Before starting tasks, fund your wallet with **BNB** for gas and trades.

You can transfer BNB from any exchange or wallet to the address shown in Leap.

> 🔸 Minimum recommended: 0.02 BNB\
> (covers multiple trades and network fees)

***

#### **Switch Between Wallets**

You can add multiple wallets and choose which one to use for each task.\
This allows you to separate strategies or manage risk more effectively.

***

#### **Remove a Wallet**

Click the trash icon beside a wallet to remove it from the bot.\
This will only delete it locally — your on-chain wallet remains safe and accessible via private key.

***

### 🔒 Security Notes

* Leap never has custody of your funds.
* Wallets are stored **locally** and **encrypted**.
* Only you can access or decrypt your keys using your operating system’s password.
* Never share your private key or use the same wallet across untrusted apps.

***

### ✅ Summary

To start trading on BNB:

1. Add or create your wallet
2. Fund it with BNB
3. Add your **RPC, Router, and WBNB addresses** in Settings
4. Save and select your wallet in Task Setup

Once configured, your wallet is ready to trade across all supported BNB markets.
