Backing Up Your Ripple Wallet: A Step-by-Step Guide
As with any valuable asset or sensitive information, backing up your Ripple wallet can give you peace of mind and ensure that you have access to your funds in the event that something goes wrong. In this article, we will walk you through the process of backing up your Ripple wallet.
Why Back Up Your Wallet?
Ripple’s Blob Vault structure is designed to hold your wallet, but it currently resides on a single centralized endpoint.
