BlocksPay is a wallet that gives you easy access to all things in crypto and web3. Switch accounts and chains with 1 click. BlocksPay currently supports the XDC and Ethereum with more chains on the way!

What is BlocksPay?

BlocksPay is a cryptocurrency wallet used to interact with the EVM Compatible blockchains such as XDC Network, Ethereum, and many more in near future. It allows users to access their EVM compatible wallet through a browser extension that can be used to interact with decentralised applications. BlocksPay is developed by BlocksScan Technologies Pvt. Ltd., a blockchain software company focusing on EVM Compatible Blockchain-based tools and infrastructure.

BlocksPay allows users to store and manage account keys, broadcast transactions, send and receive EVM Compatible cryptocurrencies and tokens, and securely connect to decentralized applications through a compatible web browser.

Decentralized applications can establish a connection with a user’s BlocksPay wallet, verify their identity, and/or integrate other smart contract functionality. This enables decentralised applications to send action requests, signature requests, and transaction requests to the user using BlocksPay.

In short, BlocksPay is a wallet that gives you easy access to all things crypto and web3. Switch accounts and chains with 1 click. BlocksPay currently supports the XDC and Ethereum with more chains on the way!
