Connecting Your Accounts

Connecting your Mainnet Account to Your Betanet Account

If you tested with us in Betanet, log in using the same linked account/login credentials you used before. This will give your Mainnet account the same address you had in Betanet, and will automatically link your account to potential on-chain rewards for the Mainnet airdrop we’ll be conducting June 19-July 3, 2024.

If you've connected your accounts successfully, you should have the exact same alphanumeric address in Mainnet as you had in Betanet.

Note that Betanet tokens, usernames, content and activity DO NOT carry over to the Mainnet edition of the Lamina1 Hub. However, developers can continue to use the Lamina1 Betanet to test out smart contracts and on-chain experiments as long as it is kept up by the community and the Open Metaverse Foundation. For more information, see the Lamina1 Betanet section below.

Connecting Your Lamina1 Hub Address to an External Wallet

You can easily export your private key from the Lamina1 Hub Settings page in order to import it into another wallet application, or as an additional measure to secure your account.

To do so, go to the “Account Management” section and click on the link to “Export Private Key.” Read the Warning dialog before acknowledging the check box and proceeding. A modal will then appear on your screen with the private key to your Lamina1 Hub account in plain text and a button to copy it to your clipboard.\

  • You can then import this key to your Metamask wallet by following the instructions here.
  • You can import this key to your Brave wallet by following the instructions here.
  • You can import this key to your Coinbase wallet by following the instructions here.

Once you have copied and pasted your private key into your wallet app of choice, make sure to clear your clipboard by copying any random piece of text into it.

NOTE: This export method will only work if you signed in to the Lamina1 Hub using an email or social sign on. If you are already logged into the Hub using Metamask as a login method when you first set up an account, your key is actually stored in Metamask, and the Hub cannot access it directly.

Instead, you can export your key directly in the Metamask app by following these instructions.

WARNING

You should be EXTREMELY careful when pulling up this modal and saving your private key, as anyone with access to your private key can steal any asset held in your account.

NEVER provide this key to anybody who asks for it.

If a wallet or other application asks for your private key, ensure that it was developed by a reputable team that you trust and is ideally both open source and audited. If you choose to trust an application with your private key, ensure that you are accessing the official application by typing the URL into the browser yourself; DO NOT TRUST LINKS.

If you need to store this key somewhere then do so in a secure place like an external drive, encrypted note file, or physical piece of paper, locked in a safe. Do not keep it anywhere at risk of attack or hacking, such as in your email inbox, screenshot, or unencrypted note file on your Desktop.
