BM.XYZ testnet supports email-based login so you can start trading without installing a browser wallet extension. Under the hood, Privy handles authentication and automatically provisions an embedded wallet tied to your email address. You get a real BM Chain address and the same full trading experience as any extension wallet user.

​
Email login flow

1

Open the connect prompt

Click Connect Wallet in the top navigation bar or in the trade panel.
2

Choose Email

In the connection modal, select Email instead of a wallet provider.
3

Enter your email address

Type the email address you want to use. BM.XYZ passes it to Privy to initiate authentication — your email is not stored by the exchange itself.
4

Enter the one-time passcode (OTP)

Check your inbox for a passcode from Privy. Enter it in the prompt. If you don’t see it within 60 seconds, check your spam folder or request a new code.
5

Complete Enable Trading

Privy creates an embedded wallet and assigns you a BM Chain address. Proceed through the standard Enable Trading flow — claim your testnet tokens and sign the gas-free session message — exactly as you would with an extension wallet.

​

​
Email vs. extension wallet — when to use each

  • You want the fastest possible first-time setup with no extension to install
  • You are on mobile and don’t have a standalone wallet app configured
  • You are running a quick testnet demo and want to get to the trade screen immediately
