HexaOne Labs Milestone - Introducing Firebase Web3Connect Integration

We are integrating Firebase Web3Connect as our new authentication provider, replacing Magic.link. This upgrade will support our goal of providing a fully 100% non-custodial & multi-chain wallet solution. This article will guide you through the reasons behind this change, the benefits of the new system & the step-by-step process to migrate your wallet from Magic.link to Hexa Lite.

Why Firebase Web3Connect as Wallet provider?

Enhancing Transparency and Decentralization

At HexaOne Labs, we are committed to upholding the core principles of blockchain technology: transparency & decentralization. Firebase Web3Connect aligns with these principles by providing a robust, secure, and non-custodial authentication method. This means that users retain full control over their private keys and seed phrases, enhancing the overall security of their digital assets.

A Fully Non-Custodial Multi-Chain Wallet

One of the key features of Firebase Web3Connect is its support for a fully 100% non-custodial & multi-chain wallet. This integration allows users to manage multiple cryptocurrencies across different blockchains networks within a single wallet interface. By eliminating the need for third-party custodians, we are ensuring that your assets remain under your control at all times.

Developed by HexaOne Labs Core Team

The integration of Firebase Web3Connect has been developed in-house by our dedicated core team at HexaOne Labs. This ensures a seamless integration with Hexa Lite and all our existing systems and guarantees that we can provide prompt support and updates. Our team’s deep understanding of the platform enables us to optimize the performance and security of the new authentication system.

Migration Process from Magic.link to Firebase Web3Connect

To ensure a smooth transition, we have outlined a step-by-step guide to help you migrate your wallet from Magic.link to the new Firebase Web3Connect system. It is crucial to follow these steps carefully to avoid any loss of access to your digital assets.

Step 1: Retrieve Your Wallet Secret Phrase from Magic.link

Connect to Your Wallet: Use your existing credentials to log in to your Magic Link wallet.

Step 2: Import Your Wallet Secret Phrase to Hexa Lite

Connect Using “Connect Wallet ➡ Import Secret Phrase”: Open the Hexa Lite application and navigate to the “Connect Wallet” option. Select “Import secret phrase” from the menu.

Benefits of Firebase Web3Connect Integration

Improved Security

With Firebase Web3Connect, your private keys and seed phrases remain in your total control by default.
