# Bullet Account Setup

#### Introduction

There are multiple ways to login and create an account on Bullet.

* We have partnered with [**Privy**](https://www.privy.io/) to start trading quickly on our platform with an email, social login or native wallet.  Privy creates an embedded wallet (fully self-custodial) underneath the hood upon sign up, which allows for **one click trading** on Bullet.
* We also support direct native wallet login to exchange without the use of Privy for both hot and cold wallets. We currently have Ledger supported for cold wallets.
* To get started, go to <https://app.bullet.xyz/>.

#### Privy Login Setup

1. Click `Connect Wallet` to open a log in modal.
2. Choose your login method - you can create an account with **your native Solana wallet** (e.g. Phantom) or **your email**.
3. After successfully verifying transactions, you will have created a Bullet account.

#### Hot Wallet Login Setup

1. Open the settings on the top right corner (cog icon).
2. Go to the `Wallet` tab and turn on the toggle to `Use external wallet as signer wallet` and `Save Changes`. This will let you connect directly to the app, bypassing Privy connect.
   * If you are already connected with Privy, you will be creating a new Bullet account with your hot wallet directly.&#x20;
3. Connect with the wallet that you want to delegate.

#### Export Privy Embedded Wallet

This feature is to support self-custody of the created embedded wallet by Privy.

1. You must be connected with a Privy login method, as mentioned above.
2. Open the settings on the top right corner (cog icon).
3. Go to the `Wallet` tab and click `Export Signer Wallet Private Key`, which will open the `Export Wallet` modal.
4. Click `Copy key` to retrieve your private key. This is an ed25519 address - you can import this into your Solana wallet for direct access or used via the Bullet Trading API - learn more [here](https://tradingapi.bullet.xyz/docs/index.html).
