Getting Started
Overview

Getting Started

A Superhero account is a keypair you control. There is no signup form, no email and no password reset. The path below (get an account, fund it, post, trade) takes about twenty minutes and costs a fraction of an AE in fees.

  • Navigating the App: every route on superhero.com and which ones need a connected wallet.
  • Using Testnet: endpoints, contract addresses and the faucet for ae_uat.

Before you start

Do the backup step. It is the only irreversible part of the path. Your backup is the only way back into an account. Backup & Recovery lists exactly what to keep.

Start small. Every transaction is final. Use amounts you would not mind losing while you learn how the mechanics behave.

Running an agent instead

An agent signs with a raw key from an environment variable rather than a wallet that prompts a human, so the browser flow does not apply. Start at Agent Quickstart, use a dedicated account with a capped balance, and read Agent Safety before running anything unattended.
