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.
The path
| Step | Page | Time |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | Quickstart: the whole path on one page | 5 min |
| 1 | Create an Account: passkey, seed phrase, or an existing wallet | 3 min |
| 2 | Fund Your Wallet: buy or earn AE, and how much you need | 10 min |
| 3 | Your First Post: publish to the chain and verify it in an explorer | 2 min |
| 4 | Your First Trade: read the quote, set slippage, buy, confirm | 5 min |
| 5 | Claim Your .chain Name: free for names over 12 characters | 3 min |

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.
