TezosX Wallet
TezosX Wallet is a standalone Chrome extension that gives you a self-custodied Tezos account and lets Ethereum-compatible dApps interact with the Tezos X network — without requiring Temple or any other external wallet.
What it is
TezosX Wallet holds your Tezos keypair locally, signs transactions itself, and exposes window.ethereum (EIP-1193) to every web page. From a dApp's perspective it looks like any Ethereum wallet: connect, sign, receive receipts.
Internally, the wallet picks the right path for each transfer:
- XTZ to a Tezos address (
tz1 → tz1 / tz2 / tz3 / KT1) — emitted as a native Michelson runtime operation via Taquito, no NAC gateway involved. - XTZ to a 0x EVM alias (
tz1 → 0x) — wrapped as a Michelson op targeting the NAC gateway'sdefaultentrypoint. Note: under Tezos X's account model, EVM aliases cannot hold native XTZ — the kernel'sAliasForwarderreroutes any XTZ sent to a 0x alias back to its tz1 of origin. So this path is mostly useful when the recipient's tz1 isn't directly known to the sender. - USDC and any dApp-initiated EVM call — routed through the NAC gateway's
call_evmentrypoint, executed atomically by the Tezos X kernel on the EVM runtime.
How it differs from the Relayer extension
| TezosX Wallet | TezosX Relayer | |
|---|---|---|
| Signing | Built-in — keys stored locally | Delegates to Temple Wallet |
| Dependencies | None (self-contained) | Requires Temple |
| Target user | End users who want a standalone wallet | Developers testing with Temple |
| EIP-1193 provider | window.ethereum (MAIN world) | window.ethereum (MAIN world) |
| dApp compatibility | Same as Relayer | Same as Wallet |
