01THE BASICS

What is the Lace Wallet Extension?

A browser wallet is an interface between your browser and blockchain-based applications. Lace is part of the Cardano ecosystem, helping people explore compatible Web3 experiences from their browser.

Rather than entering wallet details into every website, you can use a dedicated wallet environment to connect with supported decentralized applications. The wallet presents connection requests and transaction details for you to review.

Your wallet credentials stay under your control. A connection request is not the same as handing over your recovery phrase—and no legitimate application needs you to share that secret.

A useful distinction — A wallet extension helps you interact with applications. It does not make every website safe, and it cannot reverse a transaction once it has been confirmed on-chain.

Explore Lace resources
01

Made for the open web

Connect with supported applications, marketplaces, games, and blockchain services from the place you already browse.

02

Ready when you need it

After setup, a wallet can be reached from your browser toolbar while you visit compatible applications.

03

Approvals stay intentional

Connection and signing prompts give you a moment to pause, understand what is being requested, and decide.

04YOUR FIRST STEPS

Getting started with Lace

The exact setup can evolve. Use current official instructions, and take your time at every step.

Official Lace website
01

Find the official source

Start at the official Lace website or a verified distribution channel. Avoid sponsored lookalikes and downloads from unfamiliar sites.

02

Check the publisher

Choose the browser-specific install instructions and confirm the extension publisher before adding anything to your browser.

03

Set up your wallet

Follow Lace’s official onboarding steps to create a wallet or restore an existing one. Keep recovery information private.

04

Protect recovery details

Store your recovery phrase offline in a secure place. Never enter it into a website or send it by email, chat, or social media.

05

Connect with care

Check the site address, requested permissions, and transaction details every time before approving a connection or signing.

Your recovery phrase is the key to your wallet.

Keep it offline. No form, support agent, or website should ask you to submit it.

05SECURITY FIRST

Pause. Verify.
Then approve.

Convenience is useful. A few careful checks can help protect your wallet when something feels off.

YOUR SECRET KEYS STAY YOURS
THE EVERY-TIME CHECKLIST4 THINGS
01

Never share a recovery phrase or private key—not even with someone claiming to be support.

02

Treat links in messages, social posts, ads, and unsolicited email as untrusted until verified.

03

Review the site, permissions, destination, and transaction details before signing.

04

If a request feels unexpected or unclear, stop. You can investigate before taking action.

Something unexpected?
Close the prompt and verify the request through an official source.

06LOOKING AHEAD

Lace and the
Web3 experience

Wallets are an important layer between people and decentralized networks. A browser extension places controls near the applications you use.

As Web3 continues to develop, understanding the basics matters just as much as having access. Learn what wallet approvals do, how blockchain transactions work, and what network fees mean before you begin.

Convenience should never replace verification. Take time to understand a request—and remember that transactions on a blockchain may be irreversible.

Stay curious, stay in control.
You decide what to connect and what to approve.

THE TAKEAWAY

Use your wallet
responsibly.

Verify official software sources, keep recovery credentials private, and understand every transaction before signing.
