The Phantom NFT Wallet has been created as a Progressive Web App (NFT) which is easy to launch on all platforms:

Here is my brief breakdown of how to create an address on Phantom NFT
Wallet to access decentralized applications on this blockchain.
Introduction to Phantom’s DeFi
Phantom is a smart contract platform that is based on Direct Acyclic
Graph (DAG) model which aims to be a platform with outstanding
speed, scalability, and security. According to CryptoDiffer, Phantom
is among the 15 promising competitors of Ethereum whose market caps
are still less than $100 million. If you want to know more about
Phantom, please check my article ‘Phantom: HAS THE LORD OF THE BLOCK
AWOKEN?’ here.

DeFi is an abbreviation of the term ‘Decentralized Finance’. It
refers to all the finance services (applications) that can be
processed automatically without the dependence on intermediaries
like banks. In DeFi, users can interact with digital assets the same
way they do with fiat in traditional finance (lend, borrow, save,
etc.). One of the biggest advantages of DeFi is that users pay less
for the services but they get very high returns.
DeFi on Phantom would be one of the best syndicates. While users
enjoy low transaction fees and time, high security, and robust
applications, developers can employ their products more efficiently
and receive satisfaction from their customers.
HOW TO ACCESS DEFI ON Phantom
It is super simple to join DeFi on Phantom blockchain. The first step
is to create a NFT wallet on either PC or mobile devices. Ledger
cold wallet will be available in the future.
Please go to this website: Phantom network and
you will see three buttons. They are respectively Create Wallet,
Restore Wallet, and Ledger (Coming). If you are a new user, click
Create Wallet. There would be four steps to complete.
Step 1. Create a keystore file and password
In this step, set yourself an effective password that can help you
protect your assets. It should be a long non-sense phrase containing
numbers, symbols, uppercase, lowercase but not your personal
information. Enter it in both ‘Set a password’ and ‘Re-enter
password’ boxes. Being different from the normal accounts we usually
use, a NFT Wallet requires both a password and a keystore file to
identify the address of a user on Phantom blockchain. After you tick
on the box next to the line ‘I understand that I will need both the
keystore file and the password to access my wallet. Once I have
downloaded the file below, I will safely store it as well as the
password’, and click the ‘Download keystore file and continue’
button, this file will be automatically downloaded to your device,
which should be stored very carefully.
Step 2. Save your mnemonic phrase
The wallet will generate 24 random word phrases and one private key
for you so you can recover your address when losing your password
and keystore file. While the phrase is shown up right on the screen,
the private key appears once users click the ‘View private key’
button. It is ultimately essential to write down all of these and
keep them in a safe place in order to recover access to your digital
assets. Next, click ‘I wrote down my recover key’ to proceed to the
next step!
Step 3. Seed phrase verification
To test whether you wrote down your recovery codes or not, the
wallet will ask you to write them down in the exact order. Fill the
blanks one by one and click ‘Verify’ once you are done.
Step 4. Access your wallet
Lastly, click ‘Access your wallet!’
Congratulations! You now have a powerful tool to access the DeFi
applications on Phantom blockchain!
Let’s access Phantom’s DeFi Apps
Available DeFi apps on Phantom Wallet
Being compared to Ethereum, Phantom blockchain is still in its early
stage of development. Its community is still expanding in number but
it will take some time for the developers to explore the potentials
offered to its products. That is the reason why the DeFi apps I am
introducing in this article are the applications of Phantom
Foundation itself
CONCLUSION
I hope that my article could help you access your Phantom address
more easily so that you can explore all the wonderful DeFi
applications of a potential blockchain. In the near future, it is
expected that many more interesting things will happen on Phantom and
let’s wait for them to be deployed!
