# How to Create a Mixin Account with a Recovery Phrase from Another Wallet

If you already have a Web3 wallet secured by a 12-word or 24-word recovery phrase, there's no need to create a new wallet.
Mixin now supports creating a Mixin account using the recovery phrase from another wallet. During sign-up, simply import your existing recovery phrase to create your Mixin account while importing your existing wallet and its associated assets.
When you're ready to trade, you can transfer your assets to your Mixin Privacy Wallet and access perpetual futures trading and other Mixin features.

**Step 1:Tap "I already have an account" to log in.**
