Getting Started

This section outlines the fundamentals of Hinkal Wallet.

Wallet Setup

In this opening section we outline the three ways to bring your funds into Hinkal—linking an external wallet you already trust, spinning up a brand-new Hinkal wallet with its own 12-word phrase, or importing a wallet you created earlier. You’ll learn what each path means for recovery, privacy, and day-to-day convenience.

Account Model

Next, we introduce Hinkal’s dual-balance design: the Main Account, a private balance inside a smart contract, and the Proxy, a smart-contract wallet that behaves like an EOA. We explain when you’ll use each balance, how to swap between them with a click, and why the Fund and Shield actions are the key to staying private while still enjoying every dApp.

Gas Tokens

Finally, we cover gas abstraction—the ability to pay network fees in ETH, USDC, USDT, or DAI. You’ll see how Hinkal’s relayer fronts the native gas cost and instantly deducts the equivalent amount in the token you choose, so you’re never caught without ETH when it’s time to transact.
