Umi Wallet
Umi Wallet is the simplest way to control assets across chains from one place. It’s built on the Sui stack (zkLogin + sponsored transactions) and powered by Ika dWallets, so users can manage cross-chain wallets without the usual setup pain, gas headaches, or confusing custody.
Sui as the coordinator layer
Umi is built around one belief: Sui can coordinate all chains. Not just index them. Actually control, route, and execute cross-chain actions from one place.
With Umi, the “brain” lives on Sui:
wallets are provisioned on Sui
containers are created on Sui
swaps and gas routing are coordinated from Sui
signatures and transaction execution can be triggered from Sui to other chains
The result is a unified experience where users operate across ecosystems while Sui handles coordination.
Login that feels like Web2 (but stays crypto-native)
Umi Wallet starts with zkLogin. Users log in with a familiar flow, and we provision a Sui address for them through zkLogin. From there, we handle the heavy lifting needed to get them fully set up.
Free cross-chain wallet creation + fully sponsored setup
On first use, Umi Wallet creates an Ika-powered cross-chain wallet for the user for free, and we sponsor the entire on-chain setup process. Users don’t need to:
already have SUI
understand any of the underlying steps
manually pay gas during provisioning
The wallet is created under the user’s zkLogin address, so from day one the user is in control.
Containers, built into the wallet
Umi Wallet includes a simple flow to create and manage Containers directly in the web wallet. Containers are where users deposit their chain assets so they can be indexed, verified, and used across DApps.
In the wallet, users can:
create containers in a few clicks
deposit assets from chains like Ethereum, Solana, Bitcoin, and more
tag what they want indexed (NFTs, bundles, contract ownership, roles, etc.)
withdraw when they want to actively use the wallet on that chain again
Containers make cross-chain inventory feel native. Instead of assets being fragmented across different ecosystems, they show up as one unified inventory.
One wallet, multiple chains
Umi Wallet lets users operate across multiple networks through a single control surface. Instead of managing separate wallets and seed phrases, users can control accounts on different chains from the same app.
Cross-chain swaps inside the app (via NEAR Intents)
Umi Wallet supports cross-chain swaps directly in-app using NEAR Intents, routing to any of your connected wallets. Users can move value between ecosystems without bouncing between apps or manually bridging, while keeping control of the destination wallet.
Auto-gas funding when you’re low (powered by Sui + Intents)
Gas should not be a blocker. If a user is low on gas on a destination chain, Umi Wallet can use NEAR Intents to automatically fund that chain’s gas using SUI. This removes the “I can’t do anything because I’m out of gas” moment and makes cross-chain usage feel continuous.
Why this matters
Umi Wallet is how we unlock the power of Ika + the Sui stack:
zkLogin makes onboarding instant
sponsored transactions remove setup friction
containers make assets discoverable and verifiable
intents enable swaps and auto-gas across ecosystems
Sui coordinates signatures and execution across chains
All of it adds up to the same outcome: users stay in control, but the experience feels simple, and Sui becomes the coordinator of everything.
