Wallets and networks
Anuma Access runs on ZetaChain. You can participate using the embedded wallet that comes with your Anuma account, or by connecting an external wallet you already own.
Supported network
| Network | Status |
|---|---|
| ZetaChain Mainnet | Supported |
ZETA must be held on ZetaChain — not on Ethereum, Polygon, or another chain. If your ZETA is on a different network, you’ll need to move it to ZetaChain before locking. Use the ZetaChain Hub to send ZETA between Ethereum and ZetaChain.
Wallet options
Embedded Anuma wallet (default)
Every Anuma account comes with an embedded wallet managed by Anuma’s infrastructure. You don’t need to install anything or remember a seed phrase — it’s created automatically when you sign up.
The embedded wallet is the simplest way to use Anuma Access:
- Transactions are signed without any extra pop-up
- The address is visible at the top of the Anuma Access dashboard
- You can send ZETA in from any external wallet using the displayed address
External wallets
If you’d rather use a wallet you already own, Anuma supports connecting external wallets through Privy:
- MetaMask
- Coinbase Wallet
- Any other EVM-compatible wallet that supports ZetaChain
Connect from the wallet selector in the Anuma Access dashboard. Once connected, your external wallet signs every transaction directly.
Multi-wallet positions
You can have locked positions across multiple wallets at the same time. For example, you could lock 80,000 ZETA from your embedded wallet (for Pro benefits) and lock additional ZETA from an external wallet for Flexible Staking rewards.
The dashboard’s Staking Positions view lists every position, showing the wallet address, locked amount, and unlock status for each. The embedded Anuma wallet always appears first; external wallet positions follow.
To interact with a position (claim rewards, unlock), the wallet that owns it must be the active wallet in the dashboard. If a position belongs to a wallet you’re not currently signed in to, the dashboard shows a Connect to unlock button instead of an action button.
Network gas
Most on-chain actions cost ZetaChain gas, paid in ZETA:
- Locking ZETA
- Submitting an unlock request
- Claiming Anuma Tokens
Gas fees on ZetaChain are typically very low (fractions of a cent in USD equivalent), but you do need a small ZETA balance in the signing wallet to cover them — even after locking most of your ZETA.
Redeeming Anuma Tokens for credits is gasless. The portal handles the burn for you, so you don’t sign a transaction or spend ZETA on the redeem step.
Good to know
- Anuma never custodies your ZETA. Locked ZETA is held in the ZetaChain staking contract, not by Anuma. The contract is open-source and verifiable on ZetaScan.
- Anuma never has access to your wallet’s private keys — not even the embedded wallet, which is managed by a third-party infrastructure provider with key isolation.
- Switching wallets does not move positions. Each position stays with the wallet that created it. To consolidate, you’d need to unlock from one wallet and re-lock from another.
