Harmony is an open and fast blockchain, an innovative Layer-2 solution for Ethereum that has near-instant finality and low transaction fee. Its mainnet currently runs Ethereum applications with 2-second transaction finality and 100 times lower fees. 

To be able to get skin in the game with this blockchain, of course, you will need a Harmony Wallet. In today's article, I will show you the details on how to create Harmony Wallet.

What is the Harmony?

The Harmony Wallet is where ONE, HRC20 & HRC721 standard tokens are stored in the Harmony blockchain. You can send and receive ONE, HRC20 & HRC721 standard tokens as well as interact with applications on the Harmony platform.

In particular, this wallet is owned by you, so no one has the right to influence or use the wallet other than you.

Harmony Wallet has 3 extremely important pieces of information you must note:

  • Wallet address: A sequence of numbers and characters used to send assets to the Harmony wallet. Others can transfer coins to you through the wallet address you provide. A Harmony (ONE HRC20 HRC721)  wallet address will have two  following formats: 
    • A Harmony (ONE) wallet address will have the format starting with "one...": one16mk775jj02gmgpt52v7p090u0lxsw78ưv7f76t
    • A wallet address has the same format as ETH wallet and BSC wallet, so if you create a Multi-chain wallet, the addresses of these 3 wallets are the same: 0xD6Edef52527a91b40574533C1795Fc7fcd0778Ee
  • Passphrase: A security key that can be understood as a password consisting of any 12 English keywords. If you want to perform the wallet recovery operation, you must go through the Passphrase login step. Format of a Passphrase: boost more luxury curve broccoli bounce shine rule chef 
  • Private Key: This is a string format to connect to the account, quite similar to the password of a bank account. Format of a Private Key: 0x5a1899ad1806e58eaca612fb864261484d4ff9a746fa431e0a18ceb76b7f6038.

To make it easier to visualize, you can imagine that the Harmony Wallet is a bank account, the wallet address is the account number and the passphrase/private key is the password.

The difference here is that with a bank account, other people will know your personal information. As for the Harmony Wallet, the user becomes anonymous, no one knows who owns the wallet, and transactions only occur through the address encoded into a sequence of numbers and characters.

Where to create a Harmony Wallet?

You can create a Harmony wallet through Coin98 Wallet.

Coin98 Wallet is a NFT & non-custodial wallet that not only supports the Harmony platform but also many other platforms such as Ethereum, Solana, Harmony, Polygon, Kusama, BSC, HECO Chain, Near, Avalanche (C-Chain & X-Chain), Polkadot, Cosmos, Terra, Persistence, Bitcoin, TomoChain, Celo, Binance Chain, THORChain, BandChain, Kava, xDAI, GateChain, Klaytn, OKExChain, Ronin, Secret Network, KuCoin Chain, Boba Network, Arbitrum on Ethereum, Arbitrum on xDai, Optimism, KardianChain,...
