FAQ
Q1: How many accounts can I add in bulk at one time?
A: The number of accounts you can add depends on your wallet configuration. You can specify the desired quantity during the account generation process in Step 3.
Q2: What should I do if the private key import process fails?
A: Verify that you have entered the correct private keys and selected the appropriate blockchain network. Ensure your internet connection is stable and try again. If the issue persists, contact Gate Customer Support for assistance.
Q3: Can I import private keys from different blockchain networks simultaneously?
A: No, you need to select one blockchain network at a time when importing private keys. To import keys from multiple networks, repeat the import process for each network separately.
Q4: Will my existing wallet accounts be affected when I add new accounts in bulk?
A: No, adding new accounts in bulk will not affect your existing wallet accounts. All accounts remain separate and secure within your Gate Web3 Wallet.
