What is the DSX Account?

The DSX account consists of smart contracts, which make signing transactions and managing wallets easier with a secure passkey. Each time users interact with a different chain in DSX, like bridging or transferring funds, a new account contract is created on that specific chain.

How does the DSX Account work?

DSX provides a way for users to create a private key for transaction signing that only the user can access, ensuring it remains non-custodial. This private key can sign on-chain transactions only when unlocked by the user's passkey, and it cannot be shared.

How is the DSX Account different from a wallet?

Traditional wallets use a seed phrase, a series of words that must be memorized to access and sign transactions in the wallet. These phrases can be stolen in phishing attacks, giving the thief complete access to your wallet. The DSX Account, however, uses secure passkeys that cannot be phished, keeping the private keys safe on your device and hidden from outsiders.

Moreover, unlike traditional wallets that are limited to one blockchain, the DSX Account is built to work across multiple chains. It sets up a new account contract on each blockchain you use, enhancing flexibility and security. This setup, along with secure key management, makes DSX a more user-friendly and secure option compared to regular wallets.
