Using the Sui Wallet Browser Extension |
Welcome to the Sui Wallet Browser Chrome Extension. The Sui Wallet Browser Extension acts as your portal to the Web3 world. Follow this guide to install and use the extension.
Initially, the Sui Wallet Browser Extension is aimed at Sui developers for testing purposes. As such, the tokens are of no value (just like the rest of DevNet) and will disappear each time we reset the network. In time, the Sui Wallet Browser Extension will be production ready for real tokens.
This browser extension is a pared-down version of the Sui CLI client that provides greater ease of use for the most commonly used features. If you need more advanced features, such as merging/splitting coins and making arbitrary Move calls, instead use the Sui CLI client.
The Sui Wallet Browser Extension offers these features:
- Create, import, and persistently store the backup recovery passphrases (mnemonics) and the derived private key
- Create NFTs
- Transfer coins
- See owned fungible tokens and NFTs
- Display recent transactions
- Auto split/merge coins if the address does not have a Coin object with the exact transfer amount
- Go directly to the successful/failed transaction in the Sui Explorer
- A demonstration NFT dApp available in the Cloud
See Demos for depictions of these features in play and Use to find these features in navigation.
