What is a Wallet?

You need ETH to submit any transaction on the Ethereum blockchain. A wallet is where you hold your ETH and how you submit transactions/create/buy/sell items on Mintable.

Wallets are ultra-secure - we cannot do anything without your permission. You have to manually approve or deny every transaction to make sure you agree. But don't worry, it's easy.

To use a Dapp (decentralized application), you need to have a wallet that can connect to Dapps. Currently, that would be Metamask, Trust Wallet, Rainbow, and a large array of others.

Metamask is a browser extension for Chrome and Firefox and it's a wallet to store your crypto and interact with dapps on the blockchain.

Mintable wallet is also a MetaMask wallet!
