How an email wallet works and how to use it

We offer a smooth, secure alternative to login credentials using your email address. You must protect access to your email the same way you would protect your private keys for a native wallet.

An email wallet is similiar to a normal digital wallet. The big difference is that you do not have to manage the private keys or the seed phrase.

Before understanding NFT, it helps to first understand what is fungibility. Fungibility is the property of the object or item to be interchanged with another copy of the same type or similar type or different type without affecting its value. Money is the best example of fungible tokens. If I have a $100 bill & you have five $20 bills then we canexchange it easily without causing any loss or benefit to anyone. Similarly, Non-Fungible items are those which can not be interchanged like this.


Gallery art hanging in the museum is the best example of it. Every art is unique & can not be replaced by any similar items.

 represents a one-of-a-kind digital asset which has been securitised by the backing of cryptography (the same technology we use to generate cryptocurrencies) and thus allows the owner to claim their creation. Its just a digital representation of your digital assets (image, video, text file, pdf, etc.) whose proof-of-existence & proof-of-ownership is being managed by a Blockchain ledger, simply called Blockchain. This is only possible because the Blockchain ledger is considered immutable (means can not be altered or removed) and thus cannot be tampered with by anyone without paying billions of dollars & years of time.

Getting Started With Digital Wallets

If you're new to the world of cryptocurrency, you may be wondering what a wallet is and how it works. Most of you have a wallet to store money, credit cards, IDs, and if you don't clean yours out very often, maybe even your Blockbuster card. Your wallet is a place to keep your things close and protected. A wallet in the crypto space isn't much different, to be honest. It's a place to store your cryptocurrency. But instead of dollars or euros, you've got crypto coins or tokens.

There are many types of wallets, but the most important distinction is between hot and cold wallets. Hot wallets are connected to the internet and therefore more vulnerable to hacks, while cold wallets are offline and much more secure.

A hot wallet is a digital cryptocurrency wallet that is connected to the internet. Because they are connected to the internet, hot wallets are more vulnerable to hacks. However, hot wallets are also easier to use because they can be accessed from anywhere in the world. If you want to buy or sell cryptocurrency quickly, a hot wallet is a good choice.

A cold wallet is a digital cryptocurrency wallet that is not connected to the internet. Because they are not connected to the internet, cold wallets are much more secure. However, cold wallets can be difficult to use because they can only be accessed from a specific location. If you want to store your cryptocurrency long-term, a cold wallet is a good choice.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of each type of wallet?

Hot wallets are characterized by their ease of use and accessibility. They are typically hosted on online exchanges or third-party platforms, which means that they can be accessed from any computer with an internet connection. Cold wallets, on the other hand, are offline wallets that are typically stored on a USB drive or offline computer. Because they are not connected to the internet, cold wallets are much more secure than hot wallets. However, they can be more difficult to set up and use, and they may not be compatible with all exchanges. Ultimately, both hot and cold wallets have their own advantages and disadvantages, and it’s important to choose the right type of wallet for your needs.

If you're like most people, you probably keep your wallet in your back pocket. But what if I told you that there's a much better way to keep your wallet safe? The great thing about a crypto wallet is that it is much more secure than a traditional wallet. With a traditional wallet, if someone stole your wallet, they would have access to all of your money. But with a crypto wallet, only you have the private keys that allow you to access your funds. So even if someone stole your crypto wallet, they wouldn't be able to do anything with it.

A private key is like a secret password that allows you to access and manage your cryptocurrency funds. It is a string of letters and numbers that proves your ownership of your cryptocurrency. Just like a traditional bank account, you need to keep your private key safe and secure. If someone else gets access to your private key, they can steal your cryptocurrency. That's why it's important to never share your private key with anyone. The best way to protect your private key is to keep it stored in a secure place, such as a digital wallet, on a piece of paper that you keep in a safe place, or memorize it. So how can you keep your crypto wallet secure? The best way is to use a hardware or cold wallet like a Ledger. These devices allow you to store your private keys offline, which makes them much more difficult to steal, and are also protected by an 8-digit code.

We have a few different options for you as a user on our platform. Because we have built our ecommerce platform on the blockchain, everyone needs to have a wallet. To make it even easier, we have a few options:

You can use a non-custodial wallet, which is simply a wallet that we set up for you and is specifically tied to your profile

You can use a hot wallet, like MetaMask or Coinbase Wallet

You can continue shopping as you would on Amazon, Etsy, and other platforms, using a credit card or crypto, but now have a wallet associated with your account to store any digital assets that a creator on our platform may reward you with for supporting their business. Our goal is to make the transaction frictionless and to allow users the ability to use whatever form of payment they are comfortable with. Shopping should be easy, so let's continue to make it easy.
