Earth Wallet

This summer, Earth Wallet became the world’s first self custody wallet for the Internet Computer Protocol. Today, we now have over 10,000 active beta testers, and are excited to share some updates to make Earth Wallet the world’s most secure place to store your crypto!

Important Before Upgrading β€” Please Export/Save Your Account (you will need to re-import it).

Before Installing the new version to your browser, please be sure to export all existing accounts, because you will need to re-import them into the new version. Once you have saved your mnemonic phrases of each active account, please visit re-install the new version, import the new keys, and complete the migration steps before accessing your new wallet. This architecture change is required for a better multi-chain experience, and to upgrade legacy ICP addresses to the new address format recommended by the Internet Computer community.

πŸ”— Multi-Chain

There are now dozens of new blockchain protocols to create digital assets on, however wallet technology has largely remained the same. This is why Earth Wallet was designed and developed from the ground up to make compatibility across all blockchain networks as beginner friendly as possible.

After months of hard work by our open source developers, Earth Association is pleased to announce native multi-network support! You can now send and receive Bitcoin (BTC) through Earth Wallet.

Starting with the Bitcoin network, and adding new networks like Ethereum, Cardano, Solana, Polkadot, Avalanche, and many more shortly thereafter, Earth Wallet aims to become the multi-chain wallet of choice for all.

🌐 Earth Wallet Connect

If you are a developer app developer on Internet Computer, Earth Wallet connect can save you a lot of time. Developers can access Earth Wallet Connect through the 'window.earth' javascript variable and request a connection to Earth Wallet, get public account details, request a signature, and other standard Web3 application provider features. Earth Wallet Connect enables the next generation of dapp developers with a streamlined and secure user experience, without having to worry about the complexities of key management and recovery. To get started please join our discord!

🎯 Bug Bounty β€” $10k USD Rewards Now Available!

We are pleased to announce a $10,000 USD bug bounty program for all beta testers! Additionally, if you are a security auditor or software engineer working in the decentralized finance and governance space, please join our discord to participate or find out about our open positions and opportunities.

Earth Wallet aims to meet industry standards for code cleanliness, maintainability, and ease of contributions. Version 0.3 was architected from the ground up to enable a new standard Multi-Chain Keyring repository, which allows others to build their own multi-chain wallets. By pooling resources, we can not only increase code exposure, but also harden security.

The best is yet to come.

Thank you to our amazing early community who have joined our Beta so far, we are truly humbled by the response and feedback from thousands of people across the world.
