Reddit Moons - How to secure your r/cryptocurrency vault and get your 12-word seed phrase WITHOUT a phone or SIM card - using PC and Desktop

The trick is to use a phone emulator on your desktop. In this example, I’m using Android Studio on a Mac desktop. You can load any APK app on it: - Banking apps, games, Whatsapp, Reddit., Grindr (if you’re that way inclined), The Virtual Phone sees it as just a normal phone.

The process can be a little bit fiddly, and it might sound daunting to some that aren’t au fait with tech stuff, but the process is REALLY straightforward, no coding, just a few clicks. Essentially, you make a ‘virtual phone’ or sandboxed environment, and then log into Reddit app on it. Here’s the process:

  1. Download Android Studio here: https://developer.android.com/studio
  2. Once Android Studio is installed, you need to download the Reddit APK, You can get it from here: https://reddit-official-app.en.uptodown.com/android

3.Install Android Studio, then click on the 3 dots to the right, and go to ‘Virtual Device Manager’.

  1. A pop-up will open, asking you to ‘Create a new device’. Do just that. Create a new device.

  1. A new pop-up will appear asking you to select hardware and showing a list of template virtual phones. You can choose any phone, it doesn’t; matter, but for this example, I’m gonna choose a Google Pixel XL. Press Next all the way till Finish. Android Studio will now create your virtual phone machine.

  1. Now you have a virtual phone installed, click on ’New Project’ (see below) and just select a basic phone template. Call it anything you like, and just click through to finish.

Android Studio will now take some time, (about 5 minutes) creating your virtual phone. Don’t be put off by the techy-looking code - there's absolutely no coding and it's piss easy. When the phone has finished being created, all you need to do is press the green triangle ’Run’ button in the top menu, (see below) to actually run the virtual phone.

Your phone should then pop up on the right window. You can use the + or - buttons to zoom the phone in or out, as below:

You also click inside the phone’s virtual controls to go back / forward, or type in Google Search, etc.

  1. All this is all good, but now that you have your virtual phone, you want to actually load up the Reddit App that you downloaded from: https://reddit-official-app.en.uptodown.com/android - so in the Android Studio menu, go to File, Profile and Debug APK.

  1. Navigate to where you saved your reddit APK file, and select it. Android Studio will now load and initialise the Reddit App. Into your virtual phone. Takes a minute or so.

  1. All you have to do now, (making sure your Reddit App is selected in the left column), is click on the green triangle to run your newly installed Reddit APK app.

Congratulations, now you have a normal fully working Reddit App on your phone. Except it's no on your phone. it's on your desktop pretending to be a phone! You can now login to the Reddit App, and go to your vault. Use your desktop mouse as you would your finger, i.e swipe the mouse left, right, up or down within the phone, scroll down by clicking and holding the mouse, etc.

Remember, you have to think like you’re holding the virtual machine in your hand, so some parts of the phone will be hidden, so use the mouse button to clIck/hold and swipe down, as if it were your finger. You can make the desktop view bigger or smaller, and adjust the left column or bottom panels to make the viewing screen clearer. Also, you can’t really copy paste into the virtual PHONE. You gotta type it, or the virtual phone will prompt you to paste from memory.

  1. Once you've logged in, click on your avatar logo in the top right hand corner, and swipe down to you see your vault.

AND THAT’S HOW YOU ACCESS YOUR VAULT USING REDDIT ON A DESKTOP.

EDIT: Once you've opened your vault, or got your seed phrase and Reddit Avatar or whatever, i would suggest deleting the virtual phone image.
