Write down the 12-word seed phrase of your Swaptopia wallet before your first swap, and learn what it brings back and what only this browser can resume.
Swaptopia offers two backups:
Write down your seed phrase: This recovers the sats your wallet holds on Ark, with the Ark server’s help, if this browser’s data is lost. It does not bring back a swap in progress, which only this browser can resume.
Export the wallet data (optional): This lets the Bark CLI run an emergency exit without the Ark server’s cooperation.
The seed phrase is the only way to recover your sats if this browser’s data is lost. Swaptopia shows it only until you select Done. Nobody at Second can recover your sats for you.
Done stays inactive until you tick the box under the 12 words
In the Welcome to Swaptopia dialog, select Back up now. If you closed the dialog earlier, select Wallet > Back up, or Back up in the banner at the top of the page.
