What is Injective Wallet?
An Injective wallet is where INJ tokens are stored on this blockchain. With the wallet, you can send and receive INJ, as well as make any transaction on this blockchain. The wallet is owned by its user and no other party has access to it.
Injective is a PoS blockchain in the Cosmos SDK built for finance applications, allowing the network to communicate with other blockchains within the ecosystem. Injective aims at becoming a network that helps applications focus on providing the best user experience, while enhancing blockchains’ cross-chain ability.
Coin98 currently supports creating and restoring Injective wallets to interact with this network. Follow our guidelines below for more details.
What does an Injective wallet include?
An Injective wallet has 3 crucial information you must note down:
- Wallet address: A sequence of numbers and characters used to send & receive assets to the Injective wallet. Users can transfer coins to each other through the wallet address. Example of an Injective wallet address: inj1quyul2xyhc2vwksdyv9z6uq9j9rt6fjtugqzdj
- Passphrase: A security key, or a type of password consisting of 12 random English keywords. You must have the wallets’ Passphrases to restore them. Example of a Passphrase: repeat test ridge tilt maze federal width gospel usage clutch tuition endless.
- Private Key: A string of letters and numbers, similar to a bank account's password. Example of a Private Key: c025d058fb1763d970c9c28ea18eec9804e86a3f845b992d40257ad620d0d619
After creating a wallet, you will receive its wallet address, passphrase and private key similar to the examples above.
To visualize, you can imagine that the Injective wallet is a bank account, the wallet address is the account number and the passphrase is the password.
The difference here is that with a bank account, other people will know your personal information. As for the Injective wallet, users become anonymous, no one knows who owns the wallet, and transactions only occur through the address encoded into a sequence of numbers and characters.
