Wallet and network
Frontier has no accounts. A wallet is the identity, the login and the balance at once. Browsing needs nothing: prices, charts, holders and trades are public. A wallet is required to trade, launch or stake.
A wallet
Any standard Ethereum wallet works.
| How you connect | Examples |
|---|---|
| Browser extension | MetaMask, Rabby, or any injected wallet |
| WalletConnect | most mobile wallets, by scanning a QR code |
Click Connect in the top bar and pick one. Nothing is stored on Frontier's side, and disconnecting takes one click.
Robinhood Chain
| Network name | Robinhood |
| Chain ID | 4663 |
| Currency | ETH |
| Explorer | robinhoodchain.blockscout.com |
If the wallet is on another network, the app asks to switch and offers to add the network if it is missing. Approving the prompt is enough.
ETH in the wallet
Everything on Frontier is priced in ETH: the coins bought, the fees paid, the gas for each transaction. Bridge or transfer ETH to the wallet on Robinhood Chain before starting.
Leave a little ETH aside for gas. Buying with the entire balance would leave nothing to pay for the transaction itself, so the app holds a small amount back automatically.
