Getting Started Safely

Anchor is the most compatible and widely used wallet for XPR Network. It supports easy network management and hardware integration.

Recommended Setup

• Use Anchor as your primary wallet for XPR.

• Enable hardware wallet integration (Ledger) for larger holdings.

3. Start Exploring Safely

Pixel Journey Relevance

XPR Network is an excellent low-cost environment for testing DeFi mechanics, payments, and different strategies that can later be applied on WAX or other chains. It serves as a valuable complementary testing ground while keeping your primary focus and capital on WAX collections, Pixals, and the PXJ economy.
