Field Notes collection

Wallets & custody

Make authority visible.

A connected wallet, a signed request, and a completed transfer represent different stages. These guides help teams explain those stages and assign responsibility for approvals, key control, policy changes, and recovery. Read the signing guide for interface decisions and the custody guide for organizational boundaries. No resource on this site requires a wallet connection, signature, private key, or recovery phrase.

Make the reading practical.
