When you create a new wallet on a network that supports address sharing (EVM, SPL, and Tendermint networks), you can choose whether to use the address on a single network, all compatible networks, or a selected subset.
Existing wallets are not affected by this flow. Wallets created before this update are preserved and continue to work as before.

Accessing wallet details

From the wallet details page, you can:
  • Check wallet balances and holdings
  • Generate additional wallet addresses (if applicable)
  • Initiate withdrawals
  • Check the deposit address and pooled wallet addresses (if applicable)
  • Edit the wallet name
On iOS: On the vault page, select the asset to see the associated wallets in the vault. Tap the wallet to see its details. On web dashboard: On the vault page, navigate to the Wallet tab and click on a wallet to see its details. Wallet details include balances, tokens associated with that address (e.g., ERC-20 tokens), staked balances, and other asset-specific information such as pooled addresses (BTC assets) or bank account information (USD wallets).

Creating a new wallet

Unlike creating a vault, creating a wallet in an existing vault doesn’t require quorum approval.

On the web dashboard

1

Start wallet creation

Click Create wallet.
2

Select the network

Select the network and click Continue.
3

Choose address sharing (if supported)

If the selected network supports address sharing, choose how you want to use the address:
  • Use address for selected network only (default) — Creates a wallet with a unique address on the selected network. No other networks are affected.
  • Use address for all compatible networks — Creates the same wallet address across every compatible network Anchorage Digital supports. One shared address, multiple wallets.
  • Use address only for selected compatible networks — Creates the same wallet address on a subset of networks you choose.
Click Continue.
4

Name the wallet and confirm

Optionally give the new wallet or wallets a name, then select Create wallet. Your new wallet is ready for deposits and withdrawals and will appear in the table sorted by creation date.

On iOS

1

Navigate to the asset

On the vault page, tap the asset, then tap the icon to create a new wallet and follow the prompts.
2

Choose address sharing (if supported)

For wallets on address-sharing networks, select how you want to use the address:
  • Use address for [network] only (default) — Creates a wallet with a unique address on the selected network. No other networks are affected.
  • Use address for all compatible networks — Creates the same wallet address across every compatible network Anchorage Digital supports.
  • Use address only for selected compatible networks — Creates the same wallet address on a subset of networks you choose.
3

Confirm

Tap Continue to create the wallet.

Creating a new wallet address

Additional addresses are available on UTXO-based networks (e.g., Bitcoin). All addresses are pooled to the same wallet. Tap the desired wallet, then tap Deposit. To view additional addresses, tap Show all, then Generate new to create a new address.
Additional or pooled wallet addresses are only available on UTXO-based networks.

One address per wallet on account-based networks

On account-based networks like Ethereum, each wallet has a single address, and every token on that network shares it—ETH and all ERC-20 tokens in the wallet use the same deposit address. You can’t add more addresses to the wallet itself; additional addresses are only available on UTXO-based networks, as described above. To get a separate deposit address on an account-based network, create another wallet in the vault—see Creating a new wallet.

Bulk wallet creation

On the web dashboard, you can create up to 25 new addresses at once with the Create Wallet flow. Select how many new addresses you’d like to create, then proceed to select sharing options and continue.

Adding new networks to an existing wallet

You can extend an existing wallet’s address onto additional compatible networks at any time. This applies to wallets on EVM, SPL, and Tendermint networks.

On the web dashboard

1

Open wallet details

On the vault page, click the wallet to open its details.
2

Add a network

Click the Network dropdown and select Add network.
3

Select networks and confirm

Select one or more compatible networks from the list, then click Create. The new networks appear under the dropdown once the wallets are created. Each network shares the same address but maintains its own balances and assets.

On iOS

Navigate to the wallet details page and tap the more menu. Select Add network, select one or more compatible networks to enable, and confirm.

Automatic deposit detection

Deposits to a shared address are detected automatically, even on networks where you haven’t yet created a wallet. When a deposit arrives on a compatible network where the address already exists for another network, Anchorage Digital:
  1. Detects the balance on the shared address.
  2. Runs spam attribution on the deposit.
  3. Creates a wallet on the new network using the shared address, if the deposit is not attributed as spam.
  4. Displays the incoming deposit in the newly created wallet, visible on the Operations page.
The new network appears in the Network dropdown on the wallet details page with its balance visible. System-created wallets are labeled to distinguish them from wallets you created yourself.
Spam deposits don’t generate new wallets. Auto-creation only occurs after a deposit clears spam attribution.

Archiving and unarchiving wallets

Archiving a wallet keeps your active list focused without deleting the wallet. You can unarchive it anytime you need access again.

Select the Wallet archive icon

Next to Create wallet, select the Wallet archive icon to open the Archive wallets window.
3

Archive the wallet

From the Active tab, select the wallets you’d like to archive, then select Archive wallets.

Unarchive a wallet

Open the vault

Select the vault holding the wallet you want to unarchive, then go to the Wallets tab.
2

Select the Wallet archive icon

Next to Create wallet, select the Wallet archive icon to open the Archive wallets window.

Unarchive the wallet

From the Archived tab, select the wallets you’d like to unarchive, then select Unarchive wallets.
Unarchive a wallet before performing operations like staking and withdrawing on it — archived wallets can’t be used for these operations.
