Connect a wallet
Connect a browser wallet so you can sign requests, approvals and configuration changes in the Bloxchain Platform.
Where: top bar → Connect wallet · You need: a wallet on Sepolia with a little test ETH for gas
Supported wallets
MetaMask browser extension, on desktop browsers.
WalletConnect, to pair a mobile wallet or a hardware-backed wallet by scanning a code.
Both appear under Recommended in the chooser.
The Platform never holds a key. Every signature happens in your wallet, and gas is paid from your wallet.
Button states
Not connected
Connect wallet
Reads work. Signing does not.
Connected
A network pill (for example Sepolia) and your short address
You can sign and submit.
Unsupported chain
Wrong network
The wallet is on a chain the Platform does not know. Switch in the wallet or add the network in Settings.
Steps
Click Connect wallet in the top bar.
Choose your wallet and approve the connection request in the wallet.
If the wallet is not on Sepolia, switch it. The button shows Wrong network until you do.
The button now shows the network pill and your address. Open an account from Accounts.
Switching networks
The Platform follows your wallet. When you change the chain in the wallet, the pill updates and the Deploy dialog locks to the new chain ("Uses your connected wallet network"). Custom networks you add in Settings → Networks are offered to the wallet when you switch to an account on that chain. Reads do not go through your wallet's RPC. The Platform reads over its own HTTPS endpoints for the chain, and on a custom network over the RPC URL you saved in Settings. Your wallet's provider is used only when you send a transaction.

The My access card in the rail reads "Connect wallet to view" until a wallet is connected.
Auto-reconnect
When you return to bloxchain.app the Platform asks the wallet to restore the last connection. If the wallet allows it, you are connected without a prompt. If the wallet has locked or you revoked the site permission, the button returns to Connect wallet.
Status footer inside an account
"Connect a wallet to sign. Reads still work."
No wallet connected.
"Switch to Sepolia"
The wallet is on a different chain from this account.
"Cannot reach this network right now…"
The RPC for this account's network is not responding.
Troubleshooting
Nothing happens when I click Connect wallet
Unlock the wallet extension, then click again. Check that the extension is allowed on this site.
Wrong network will not go away
Switch the wallet to Sepolia. For a custom chain, add it in Settings → Networks first.
Connected, but My access says no roles
Your address holds no role on this account. Ask an admin to add you under Signers.
"This wallet cannot start a request with Wallet or Sign for this function."
Your role lacks the Request step for that action. See My access.
The address shown is not the one I expected
Switch the active account inside the wallet. The Platform follows the wallet's selected account.
