How to Use the Ronin Wallet? | ronin login |

Introduction

If you are a fellow NFT gaming player, you should be fairly familiar with Axie Infinity, the Ethereum-based collectible game that has been surging in popularity since its debut in 2018. For those that don’t recognize the game, you can think of Axie Infinity as a newer version of CryptoKitties inspired by Pokémon.

Players can breed, collect, and trade cute creatures called Axies, as well as virtual lands and items - all on a blockchain-based marketplace. They can also form teams to battle game monsters or compete against other players. Axie Infinity rewards its players with Smooth Love Potion (SLP) tokens, which are cryptocurrencies that can be traded on crypto exchanges like Binance.The Ethereum network often has relatively high fees, and this was limiting the growth of Axie Infinity. With a booming number of players, Sky Mavis developers introduced the Ronin blockchain, a customized sidechain for scaling NFT games that charges lower transaction fees. The team also developed the Ronin Wallet, a mobile and browser extension wallet for players to store their crypto assets and NFTs (including Axies).

What is Ronin Wallet?

As mentioned, Ronin Wallet is a crypto wallet that operates on the Ronin network, which is an Ethereum sidechain. It’s available as a browser extension or mobile app (Android and iOS).

You can also use the Ronin Wallet to send and receive cryptocurrencies and NFTs without paying high gas fees. Currently, Wrapped Ether (WETH), Axie Infinity Shard (AXS), USDC, and Smooth Love Potion (SLP) can be stored on your Ronin Wallet.AXS and SLP are ERC-20 tokens that players can earn by completing daily quests and battling other players on Axie Infinity. As of November 2021, you can use AXS and SLP for breeding new Axies. In the future, however, AXS breeding requirements are expected to be removed as the token will be used as a governance token only. You can also trade SLP on crypto exchanges like Binance. As Ronin Wallet is now integrated on Binance, users can transfer their NFTs and cryptocurrencies directly, paying minimal gas fees.
