GateHub allows users to add and remove wallets from your account which can hold up to 30 XRP Ledger wallets or GateHub hosted wallets.
GateHub discourages creating new XRP Ledger wallets unless entirely necessary. All created XRP Ledger wallets (accounts) are permanently stored on the XRP Ledger.
Every new version of the XRP Ledger's public ledger chain contains the full state of the ledger.
In order to gain functionality, a new XRP Ledger wallet has to be funded with 10 XRP which cannot be withdrawn.
Deleting your XRP Ledger wallet will not make XRP reserve available.
Balances and XRP reserves in multiple XRP Ledger wallets cannot be merged. Each active XRP Ledger wallet must hold at least 10 XRP.
To create a new XRP Ledger wallet or GateHub-hosted wallet:
- Go to "Wallet" on the menu located on the left side of the screen.
- Click on the wallet drop-down menu in the upper-left corner of the screen.
- Click "+Add Wallet".
- Choose the wallet type you wish to create (hosted or XRP Ledger wallet).
- Enter your account password.
- Type in your wallet name (can be changed later).
- Click “Create”.
To remove a wallet from your account:
Prior to deleting a wallet, make sure that all the available funds have been withdrawn and that the wallet is not designated as a primary (the primary wallet cannot be deleted - to delete a wallet you have set as a primary you have to first set another wallet as primary, which can be done in "Advanced" wallet settings).
- Go to "Wallet" on the menu located on the left side of the screen.
- Click on the wallet drop-down menu in the upper-left corner of a screen.
- Click on the wallet you wish to remove.
- Go to “Advanced” settings.
- Click "Delete" and enter your account password.
- The warning window will open. When deleting an XRP Ledger wallet, you will be prompted to confirm the action by ticking the box in front of the disclaimer statement.
- Click “Delete” to finish.
Deleting the XRP Ledger wallet from your GateHub account is irreversible and can not be undone. The only way a deleted XRP Ledger wallet can be recovered is by importing it back to your account with the use of its pertaining secret key (see article Import a wallet).
