How Xenn Web3 works

Xenn uses embedded wallets to keep the music product approachable, but the on-chain rules still matter. This page explains where the flow is gasless, where ETH is still required, and why the new wallet hub exists.

1. Identity

Xenn wallet vs browser wallet

A Xenn wallet is an embedded wallet linked to an email login. It keeps the user inside the Xenn flow. A browser wallet like MetaMask still works as an external option, but it is no longer required for creator minting.

2. Creator Flow

Minting is gasless for creators

The creator signs with the embedded wallet, then Xenn’s relayer-backed queue handles the on-chain mint work. That means artists do not need to preload ETH just to mint collector releases.

3. Buyer Flow

Buying is direct on-chain settlement

Collector checkout calls the contract’s buy path directly. The buyer wallet pays the NFT price and the network fee in native ETH. That is why embedded-wallet buying only works after the buyer wallet is funded.

4. Wallet Hub

Why the new /wallet page matters

The wallet hub gives users one branded place to inspect balance, receive funds, send funds out, and eventually buy ETH, swap, and cash out without exposing raw vendor wallet screens.

Current Operator Truth

Funding path right now

Until Xenn wires a native on-ramp, the practical way to fund an embedded wallet is to send ETH into it from MetaMask, Coinbase, or another external source on the correct chain. The /wallet page makes that operational truth visible instead of hiding it.

Roadmap Shape

What can slot in later

Buy ETH can become an on-ramp partner entry point.
Swap can convert supported assets into checkout-ready ETH.
Cash Out can route proceeds back to external rails while keeping Xenn in charge of the product surface.
