Some projects require specifying the `--coin-type` in decimal format for the key to be restored correctly.
Always ensure to verify the `--coin-type` when restoring an account.
For example, in the case of Injective, the `--coin-type` should be set to `60`.
```shell
$ rly keys restore injective [key-name] "mnemonic words here" --coin-type 60
```
5. **Use the `key-name` created above.**
