Hi from the Sui Ecosystem team! In the second deep dive article on the Sui network, we will cover one of the first wallet – Ethos Wallet.
We value your time, so without further ado, let’s explore!
Introduction
Ethos Wallet – a non-custodial wallet built to allow users discovering apps, games, and NFTs on Sui. A web version is available already, while a mobile app is coming!
Few characteristics describe it best: open-sourced, official partner of Sui & customizable.
Open-sourced
On November 8, the team announced their APIs became public. Everyone building on Sui can integrate Ethos Wallet. Moreover, dApp devs can list their app on the Wallet Explorer.
Think of it as an additional opportunity for users to discover your dApp, simply by navigating through the user-friendly interface.
Feel free to check the APIs & docs here:
Official partner of Sui
We have to admit, there are many projects are being built on Sui right now thanks to massive hype of funding rounds and rumors on potential airdrops. Many of them are built by anonymous teams. Thus, being an official partner of Mysten Labs (a team building Sui) brings much more confidence and trust from its core users and developers.
Feel free to explore all the partners here.
Customizable
In our opinion, customization and flexibility is quite important in respect of UX & UI. We don’t feel the Ethos team has any issue with this either.
At first, they allow users to choose the way they like to sign up:
-
Using email;
-
Import or create new wallet using seed phrase.
It seems like both web2 & web3 users can easily start using Ethos Wallet.
Secondly, you’re allowed to customize your name & color used to indicate your wallet – it could be useful to separate them if you have more than one. And dark/light mode is here too! It may seem obvious, but some wallets still have an issue with it.
Functionality
Currently, Ethos Wallet operates on Sui devnet.
There are several features you can test right now, including:
Please note, you need to find an opponent to play the last two games.
-
Mint your unique NFT;
-
Perform some test transactions to a friend’s wallet or your own.
Summing-up
As EVM chains have several web3 wallets like Metamask, TrustWallet or C98, Sui is no different. It doesn’t mean only one should succeed. Instead, they expand the user base allowing to choose which features, design or UI fits you best.
