Before starting Wallet Guides, gather the information related to creation and import, backup, and receiving assets. Wallet guides work best when organized around tasks—setup, backup, receiving, sending, transaction review and handling unexpected states—rather than feature lists. Do not search for recovery material on an unfamiliar site or skip a network, address or permission check simply because the workflow looks familiar. Good preparation makes later anomalies easier to notice.
Key point: sending assets
During the action, treat sending assets and transaction history as separate checkpoints rather than one combined confirmation. When a state related to troubleshooting appears, make sure it belongs to the intended network and object. If the request differs from what you expected, stop and re-check instead of submitting the same request several times.
After completion, keep enough public information to review the result. Revisit creation and import, confirm that backup and receiving assets match the intended outcome, and make sure sending assets has not left an unnecessary permission behind. On-chain transactions generally cannot be reversed by a wallet alone, so post-action review is part of the workflow, not an optional extra.

- Check creation and import in the correct network and request context before confirming.
- Check backup in the correct network and request context before confirming.
- Check receiving assets in the correct network and request context before confirming.
- Check sending assets in the correct network and request context before confirming.
- Check transaction history in the correct network and request context before confirming.
