💖 ./SIAC-WALLET-INIT(1) — siac Manual 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because this is the page for ./siac-wallet-init — your little glow-up machine for making a brand new wallet. it lives in the siac manual, and yeah, the title up top is literally ./SIAC-WALLET-INIT(1), lowercase filename energy and all. let's get into it ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

./siac-wallet-init — initialize and encrypt a new wallet 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

./siac wallet init

that's it. that's the whole summoning ritual. no cap.

💫 DESCRIPTION 💫

so here's the tea, bestie: this command generates a new wallet from a randomly generated seed, and then it encrypts it. iconic behavior fr fr. 🔥

and here's the part everyone always asks about: by default, the wallet encryption / unlock password is the same as the generated seed. like, the seed is the password. so whatever that seed is, that's your key to get back in. keep it safe, okay? 🫶

👑 OPTIONS 👑

• --force[=false] — destroy the existing wallet and re-encrypt 💀 this one is giving "no thoughts, head empty, yeet the old wallet." it literally nukes what's there and starts fresh, so like… be sure, bestie.
• -p, --password[=false] — prompt for a custom password 🔐 so instead of letting the seed be your password, you get asked for one of your own. main character choice honestly.

🌈 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🌈

• -a, --addr="localhost:9980" — which host/port to communicate with (i.e. the host/port siad is listening on) 📡 so this is you telling it where your siad is hanging out. default vibe is localhost:9980, and yes that default is literally written with the quotes in it, we don't make the rules.
