Xverse Install Guide

What the Xverse Wallet Offers

Last updated: October 29, 2026

Once installed, the Xverse extension functions as a self-custody wallet for the Bitcoin and Stacks ecosystems. This page summarizes the capabilities a new user can expect after setup.

Bitcoin and Stacks asset management

View balances, transaction history, and addresses for Bitcoin and Stacks-based tokens in one interface.

Ordinals and NFT support

Store and view Bitcoin Ordinals and Stacks NFTs alongside other holdings, without a separate viewer.

Sending and receiving

Generate receiving addresses and send supported assets, with an on-screen summary before confirming any transaction.

Connecting to apps

Use the extension to connect to Bitcoin and Stacks web applications through a standard "Connect Wallet" flow.

Self-custody and recovery

Keys are generated and stored on the device behind a password; a seed phrase allows recovery on a new device.

Multiple accounts

Create several accounts within one wallet to separate holdings or activity, all recoverable from the same seed phrase.

Who the wallet suits

Xverse is aimed at people who already hold or intend to hold Bitcoin or Stacks assets and want a browser-based way to manage them, connect to decentralized applications, and view Ordinals or NFTs, without handing custody of funds to a third party.
