Getting the Wallet

To use the wallet you need to download from the Chrome Web Store here: Partisia Chrome Extension

Note: Please make sure you check before downloading that it is the official wallet. The best way to make sure is to check that the App Id is gjkdbeaiifkpoencioahhcilildpjhgh

Initial Setup

Before you are able to use your wallet, you must password protect it. Additionally this password will be required to be entered before anytime your private key is used.

To setup your password, follow the steps when you first load your wallet. Password Prompt

Reset Password

This password can be reset later on in settings -> Change Password: Reset Password

Create New Wallet Address

There are five types of ways create a new partisia address:

  • Mnemonic Phrase
  • Private Key
  • Twitter Authentication
  • Ledger Hardware Wallet
  • Backup Keystore File

Mnemonic Phrase

By default the mnemonic phrase will be 12 words, but this increases in setting->General up to (12, 15, 18, 21, 24)

Private Key

The private key should be a hexadecimal string with a length of 64

Twitter Authentication

You can obtain a Partisia Address through Twitter. This is done in cooperation with Torus Labs. Simply authenticate through twitter and the Wallet will automatically create your private key and address for you.

Ledger Hardware Wallet

Currently we are in the Ledger waitlist to be accepted as an official ledger-live app but until then you can still use a ledger hardware wallet if you are willing to set the device in developer mode and manually load the ADPU. Documentation can be found here: ledger-partisia-docs

Backup Keystore File

You can also generate and restore your wallet with an encrypted keystore file. To generate the keystore file select the Export to a Encrypted File option in Menu -> Backup

Receive funds

To view your address simply look at the header row of the wallet or click the receive button to show your full address and corresponding QR code

Reset Password

Wallet Backup

It is very important to always keep a safely secured backup of all your private keys. This will be the only way to recover your funds in the event anything happens to your computer.

To take a backup, select the account you wish to backup and then from the menu select Account Backup

Reset Password

You will be prompted to input your password and afterwards your private key or mnemonic phrase will be shown. You also have the option to export your keys to an encrypted keystore file if you prefer not working with the keys directly.

Wallet Settings

Access Wallet Settings from the Menu

Wallet Settings

  • General:
    • Open as Popout Window: When clicking extension icon in toolbar opens a separate window instead of popup window. This is nice if you need to move back and forth between webpages and windows to input information
    • Mnemonic Phrase: This is how many words in the Mnemonic Phrase. The more words the more entropy making brute force attacks more difficult. Choose between (12, 15, 18, 21, 24)
    • Wallet Timeout: This is how long of inactivity before the Wallet automatically Locks and requiring a password to be entered
    • Transaction Valid Time: Each transaction has an expiry time before the blockchain no considers the transaction valid. This is how long the expiration is. A longer time period gives you more time to review before sending but a shorter time period is helpful to prevent replay attacks.
    • Block Explorer Account Url: This allows you to customize the base url for viewing on chain account addresses
    • Block Explorer Transaction Url: This allows you to customize the base url for viewing on chain transactions
  • Change Password: Reset your Wallet password
  • About: Displays Wallet version and link to source code
  • Reset All: Allows clear out all storage and cache in the wallet. It is critical to backup your wallet first before doing this, as that is the only way to recover your wallet later
