This section outlines the fundamentals of Hinkal Wallet.

Wallet Setup

Hinkal Wallet supports three ways to access and manage funds:

  • connect an existing external wallet

  • create a new wallet with a 12-word recovery phrase

  • import an existing hinkal wallet

You’ll learn what each path means for recovery, privacy, and day-to-day convenience.

Account Model

Hinkal Wallet uses a dual-account model:

  • Private account, where funds are held within a confidential balance in the Hinkal smart contract

  • Public account, which behaves as a standard on-chain wallet

Users can move assets between these accounts using:

  • Shield (public → confidential)

  • Unshield (confidential → public)

This model allows users to switch between public and confidential activity depending on the use case.

Gas Tokens

Hinkal Wallet supports gas abstraction.

Users can pay transaction fees using supported tokens such as SOL, ETH, USDC, USDT, or DAI.

A relayer submits the transaction on-chain and covers the native gas cost. The equivalent value is deducted from the user’s selected token.
