Connecting Wallets
What is a wallet address?
A crypto wallet address is a public identifier — like an account number — that anyone can look up on the blockchain to see balances and transactions. It’s safe to share. Only the holder of the matching private key or seed phrase can move funds from it.
Security
Ethonode only reads your public wallet address. We never ask for private keys or seed phrases. Ever.
EVM wallets (Ethereum and compatible chains)
EVM wallets include MetaMask, Ledger, Trezor, Coinbase Wallet, Rabby, Rainbow, and any wallet that holds Ethereum, Polygon, BNB, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, or Avalanche.
Finding your address
- Open your wallet app.
- Tap your account name or avatar at the top.
- Copy the 0x… address that appears.
Adding to Ethonode
- Go to your workspace.
- Click + Add source → Wallet.
- Pick Ethereum / EVM, choose a chain, and paste the address.
- Give it a label such as “My Ledger” and click Connect Wallet.
Supported chains
- Ethereum
- Polygon
- BNB Smart Chain
- Arbitrum
- Optimism
- Base
- Avalanche
Solana wallets
Solana wallets include Phantom, Solflare, Backpack, and Glow. Addresses are base58-encoded strings 32–44 characters long.
- Open your Solana wallet and copy the displayed address.
- In Ethonode, pick Solana in the Add Wallet flow.
- Paste the address, label it, and click Connect Wallet.
Solana sync uses the Helius API. See Setting Up API Keys to add your own free Helius key.
Troubleshooting
“My wallet shows no assets”
- Check the address was pasted without extra spaces or line breaks.
- Confirm you chose the correct chain — ETH on Ethereum vs Polygon are different data.
- Wait a minute and click Sync Now in the workspace.
“Sync seems slow”
Shared keys are rate-limited across all users. Add your own free Moralis key in Settings → API Keys for higher throughput.
