Setting up your xDai wallet is incredibly straightforward
First, mobile users. If you’re using a web browser, scroll to the middle of the article.
We begin by setting up Metamask.
Mobile Users
STEP 1 – Set up Metamask
Download the Metamask app from Google Play or the Apple Store.
Click on the Create a new wallet button, set up your account password (min 8 characters).

Next, Metamask will prepare to give you your Secret Recovery Phrase. These 12 words are the ONLY WAY to restore MetaMask accounts if you forget the password. You must store this phrase somewhere safe.

Record the Secret Recovery Phrase in a safe place such as in a notebook or USB key kept in a safe. After this security step, you can now access your wallet.

STEP 2 – Connect to xDai Network.
Access the sidebar using the drop-down menu in the upper left corner.
Click on the Settings option. Select Networks and click Add Network at the end of the screen.
Add a new RPC network by filling in these detail:
- Network Name: xDai
- New RPC URL: https://rpc.xdaichain.com/
- Chain ID: 0x64

Click Add when you’re done. This sets up the xDai network.

STEP 3 – Viewing your NFTs.
In the Metamask app, click on the address under your wallet name to copy it to your clipboard.
Next, open a new browser tab and go to this website: https://blockscout.com/xdai/mainnet/. Paste the address associated with your Metamask wallet into the search bar on the website

Scroll down the page. Click to expand the Transactions bar and click on Token Transfers.

In each token transfer, click the first link below the name of the token transfer. This brings you to the “Transactions Details” page.
Under Interacted With click on the copy icon next to the string of numbers to copy them to your clipboard.

Finally, return to the MetaMask app and click on Add NFT. Paste the string of numbers you copied into the Address.
Then, write the number you saw within square brackets in the above step into the ID space. Click Import to add your NFT to your wallet and view it.
