5. Choose a ‘ username’

We suggest choosing a name that will be easy to remember.

Congrats! You have successfully generated an EC2 AWS Access Key and Secret Key.

This is a very important part of the security process. Since Blox is non-custodial, we won’t be able to help you reproduce these keys in case you lose them. So please make sure to store the information in a safe location.
