    Your wallet stays in place for the next start. Each network keeps it in its own Docker volume, `bark-signet_wallet-data` or `bark-mainnet_wallet-data`, so signet and mainnet can run side by side.

    To delete a wallet, reset it. A reset deletes the network's volume and its wallet, and the next start creates a fresh one. The commands are the stop commands with `-v` added.

    <Warning>
      A reset permanently deletes that network's wallet, seed phrase included. Empty the wallet, or make sure you've [backed it up](/docs/bark-wallet/backup), before resetting.
