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.
Embedded wallet behavior
Email vs. extension wallet — when to use each
- Use Email if…
- Use an Extension Wallet if…
- 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
Troubleshooting
Email login availability on mainnet may differ based on compliance review. This page documents the testnet implementation only.
