Moreover, community members have further developed the official web-wallet into a cross-platform wallet based on Electron technology. The wallet supports “Generate new Nebulas wallet”, “Send transaction”, “Offline signature”, “View wallet information”, “View transaction information”, “Deploy/call contract”, “Switch network”, “Manage local node” , “Save private key information” and other functions. On a private computer, the cross-platform wallet is more convenient to use than the web version. Come and have a try.
