Tactizen uses Web3 wallet authentication - no traditional account creation needed!

1. Install MetaMask or any Web3-compatible wallet browser extension
2. Click "Connect Wallet" on the Tactizen homepage
3. Approve the connection in your wallet
4. Sign the authentication message (this proves you own the wallet)
5. Create your citizen profile with a username

That's it! Your wallet address is your account - no passwords to remember.

A Web3 wallet (like MetaMask) is a secure digital wallet that:

• Stores your blockchain credentials securely
• Allows you to sign in without passwords
• Enables you to own NFTs and in-game assets
• Lets you participate in blockchain-verified voting

We recommend MetaMask for beginners - it's free and easy to set up.

When creating your citizen, you'll be asked to choose a country. Consider:

• Population: Larger countries have more active communities
• Resources: Different regions have different natural resources
• Economy: Check the job market and company presence
• Politics: Some countries are more politically active

Don't worry too much - you can always travel or change citizenship later!

Tactizen uses advanced cryptography for voting:

• Your vote is secret: No one can see who you voted for
• Verified on blockchain: The zkVerify blockchain confirms your vote is valid
• No double voting: Cryptographic nullifiers prevent voting twice
• Transparent yet private: Anyone can verify the election is fair without seeing individual votes

This is real democratic technology - your vote truly matters and is truly secret!
