This guide outlines how you can connect with dApps and Web3 platforms using your Magic Eden Wallet.
Introduction to dApps and Web3
Decentralized applications (dApps) utilize blockchain technology for various functionalities, from gaming to DeFi.
Step-by-step: Linking to Web3 apps
Open the Web3 app and look for the "Connect" or "Connect Wallet" option.
From the wallet options, select "Magic Eden".
A prompt will appear. Click "Connect" to link your Magic Eden Wallet.
Connecting when Magic Eden isn't listed
If Magic Eden isn't displayed as an option, use the "Prioritize Magic Eden" feature and select an alternative wallet to initiate the connection. This does not apply to mobile users.
How to Activate the 'Prioritize Magic Eden' Function
Open your Magic Eden Wallet.
Click on the profile tab located at the bottom.
Tap the settings icon.
Locate the 'Prioritize Magic Eden' toggle. Click on it to set Magic Eden as your default browser wallet.
Connecting with Magic Eden Wallet when 'Prioritize Magic Eden' is switched on
When "Prioritize Magic Eden" is activated, you have the option to choose other wallet providers to connect with the Magic Eden Wallet. If you are connecting to a Solana dApp, we recommend selecting the Phantom option. For Ethereum or Polygon, choose Metamask. The Magic Eden wallet will then pop up, enabling you to connect as usual.
Managing Web3 connections
Approving transactions or requests in Web3
When using Web3 apps, transaction requests need your Magic Eden Wallet's authorization. Review and click "Approve" for each request, ensuring security.
Stay organized by effectively managing and overseeing all your Web3 connections in one place.
Removing a connection guide
You can effortlessly disconnect and remove a Web3 link with just a few clicks, ensuring flexibility.
Navigate to the profile tab at the bottom of Magic Eden Wallet.
Click on the 'Web3' icon.
Click the settings icon to the right of the connection you wish to remove/disconnect.
Click the 'Disconnect' button to remove the connection.
Staying safe in the Web3 environment
Never provide your 12-word phrase or private keys while connecting to Web3 platforms. Ensure to connect only with reputable and trusted apps and always disconnect after use for added security.
