Wallet
The GateChain Wallet allows you to monitor your assets on GateChain. Assets can be native tokens on GateChain, as well as bridged assets from Ethereum, Solana, Polygon and various IBC-enabled chains.
There are a variety of different wallets that are supported on GateChain. Users can choose to submit transactions on GateChain using either their Ethereum or Cosmos-native wallets.
Overview
GateChain's Account type uses Ethereum's ECDSA secp256k1 curve for keys. Simply put, GateChain's Account is native (compatible) with Ethereum accounts, allowing Ethereum-native wallets, such as MetaMask, to interact with GateChain. Popular Cosmos wallets like Keplr and Leap have also integrated with GateChain.
Ethereum-Based Wallets
As explained above, Ethereum-based wallets can be used to interact with GateChain. Right now, the most popular Ethereum-based wallets are supported on GateChain. These include:
The process of signing transactions on GateChain using an Ethereum-native wallet consists of:
- Converting the transaction into EIP712 TypedData
- Signing the EIP712 TypedData using an Ethereum-native wallet
- Packing the transaction into a native Cosmos transaction (including the signature), and broadcasting the transaction to the chain
This process is abstracted away from the end-user. If you've previously used an Ethereum-native wallet, the user experience will be the same.
