Hi! The snap key is derived from your MetaMask seed and if you backup this seed you also backup your Vega snap key. Here's a screenshot from the snap installation which does mention this in the details: It is correct that you cannot import your MM seed into Vega Wallet right now. Even though they use the same algorithms underneath, we only support 24 word recovery phrases, while MetaMask uses 12, however we have ensured that if we ever decide to support 12 word recovery phrases, they will be compatible. Right now you can only get one snap key. We may decide to allow more keys in the future. |

MM Snaps creates new Vega key upon connection to the console.
I have not been prompted with the option to connect a web wallet or a desktop wallet. So there is no option to do that.
What to do if i want to backup the wallet?
-I can not use the MM seed, as i learned from Jake earlier that the Snaps seed is derived from the EVM one-
Say i want to import the Vega wallet fro any reason. How to backup, to recover it again.
Is it a guarantee that whenever i connect with the same EVM wallet, it will derive and import the same Vega keys? In other words, is the Snaps wallet backup inherited from the EVM one?
Or is it not the case and there i a possibility t generate another Vega key by Snaps whenever we reiterate, and there is another way to explicitly backup the Snaps generated wallet?
Thanks!!
