Wallet Connection & Self-Custody

To interact with the marketplace, list items, place bids, or manage collection parameters, you must establish a secure connection using a compatible Web3 wallet. This connection enables self-custodial trading, ensuring that you maintain complete ownership and control over your private keys and digital assets.

The Power of Self-Custodial Assets

On Mintpad, your wallet acts as your unique identity and secure vault. Because you authorize every transaction directly from your wallet, no third party can access, transfer, or modify your assets without your explicit approval.

Compatible Wallet Ecosystems

We integrate with standard Web3 protocols, supporting a wide range of wallet applications:

* Cronos DeFi Wallet: The native, ecosystem-optimized mobile wallet designed for Cronos.

* MetaMask: A widely used browser extension and mobile wallet for managing digital assets.

* Trust Wallet: A multi-chain mobile wallet supporting secure connections.

* AppKit / WalletConnect: Connect instantly using any WalletConnect-compatible application by scanning a secure QR code.

Establishing Connection

Connecting your wallet is a trustless operation that does not cost gas:

1. Initiate Request: Prompt the wallet interface to open.
2. Provider Authorization: Select your preferred wallet application or scan the connection QR code.
3. Approve Link: Confirm the link request within your wallet. Once completed, your wallet address serves as your active trading account.
