-### 🔐 Create Wallets

-You'll need to create **two BLS wallets**:
-
-* One for **owner**: used to fund sector pledges and submit proofs
-* One for **worker**: used to publish and manage storage deals
-
-```sh
-lotus wallet new bls  # Create owner wallet
-lotus wallet new bls  # Create worker wallet
-lotus wallet list     # List all created wallets
-```
-
-Make sure to send a small amount of FIL to each wallet - we recommend 1 FIL per wallet to ensure the creation of your Storage Provider in Curio. [Calibration test FIL faucet information](https://docs.filecoin.io/smart-contracts/developing-contracts/get-test-tokens).

-Both wallets will be used during Curio initialisation.
