How to use Bybit Web3 Wallet to access dApps?

Setting Up the Bybit Web3 Wallet

1. Visit the official Bybit website and navigate to the Web3 Wallet section.

2. Click “Download Wallet” and choose the browser extension version compatible with Chrome, Edge, or Firefox.
3. Install the extension and follow the onboarding flow to create a new wallet or import an existing one using a 12-word recovery phrase.
4. Set a strong password and confirm your backup by re-entering the seed phrase in correct order.
5. Once initialized, the wallet displays your Ethereum-compatible address and supports multiple EVM chains out of the box.

Connecting to dApps Securely

1. Open the dApp you wish to interact with — such as Uniswap, Aave, or Blur — in the same browser where the Bybit Web3 Wallet extension is installed.

2. Look for a “Connect Wallet” button, usually located in the top-right corner of the interface.
3. Select “Bybit Wallet” from the list of available options; if not visible, click “More Wallets” or “Show All” to locate it.
4. A pop-up window from the Bybit Web3 Wallet appears — review the requested permissions including network access and account exposure.
5. Confirm the connection request by clicking “Approve” inside the wallet interface; your public address is now shared with the dApp.

Switching Networks and Managing Assets

1. Click the network indicator (e.g., “Ethereum Mainnet”) in the wallet’s top bar to open the chain selection menu.

2. Choose from supported networks like BSC, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, or Polygon without needing separate wallet installations.
3. Toggle between networks seamlessly — balances and transaction history update automatically per selected chain.
4. Import custom tokens manually by entering contract addresses and decimals when they don’t appear in default token lists.
5. View real-time asset values, transaction statuses, and gas fee estimates directly within the wallet UI before confirming any action.

Signing Transactions and Approving Contracts

1. When initiating swaps, deposits, or NFT mints on a dApp, a transaction signature request appears in the Bybit Web3 Wallet popup.

2. Carefully inspect critical fields: recipient address, amount, function call, and gas limit — especially for unknown contracts.
3. Adjust gas settings manually if needed — use “Standard”, “Fast”, or “Custom” modes depending on urgency and cost sensitivity.
4. Tap “Confirm” only after verifying all parameters match your intent; no reversal is possible once broadcasted.
5. Monitor pending transactions via the “Activity” tab inside the wallet, where timestamps, block confirmations, and status icons are displayed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1. Can I use the Bybit Web3 Wallet with non-EVM blockchains like Solana or Cosmos?No. The Bybit Web3 Wallet currently supports only EVM-compatible chains including Ethereum, BSC, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, and Polygon. It does not support Solana, Cosmos SDK chains, or Bitcoin-based protocols.

Q2. What happens if I lose my device but still have my 12-word recovery phrase?You can fully restore your wallet on any compatible device or browser by selecting “Import Wallet” during setup and entering the exact phrase in correct sequence. Private keys are never stored on Bybit servers.

Q3. Does the Bybit Web3 Wallet support hardware wallet integration like Ledger or Trezor?Not at this time. The wallet operates as a software-based non-custodial solution and does not offer direct pairing or signing through external hardware devices.

Q4. Why does a dApp show “Wallet not detected” even after installing the extension?Ensure the extension is enabled in your browser settings, the site is loaded over HTTPS, and you’re not using incognito mode without granting extension permissions. Refresh the page after enabling the extension.
