Set up an account

Create a new account 

By default, your node creates an account when you start up your node for the first time. You can create a new account at any time with the following command:

ironfish wallet:create

Set the account as default 

When you have multiple accounts you can set which account to use as the default account:

ironfish wallet:use MyNewAccount

You can read about the different wallet commands in the wallet section.

Now that you have created an account you can receive transactions or start mining $IRON.
