Multi-Chain Architecture
One wallet interface, four blockchains managed from a single unified view. Each chain uses its native signing algorithm — see supported chains for details.
Product
DNA-Wallet multi-chain layer
DNA-Wallet
One Seed, Every Chain
DNA-Wallet is the multi-chain wallet built into DNA-Messenger. A single BIP-39 seed phrase derives wallets across four blockchains — Cellframe, Ethereum, Solana, and TRON. Send and receive tokens without leaving the chat.
Overview
Multi-chain, built into the messenger
DNA-Wallet is not a separate app. It lives inside DNA-Messenger — every conversation is also a payment channel. No address copying, no app switching, no friction.
In-Chat Transfers
Send tokens to any DNA contact directly inside a conversation. The recipient's wallet address is resolved automatically from their DNA identity — no raw addresses needed.
One Seed Phrase
A single BIP-39 mnemonic is the master key. Back up one seed phrase — recover all your wallets. New chains are added automatically with no re-backup needed.
Architecture
How key derivation works
One Mnemonic, Four Derivation Paths
Each blockchain uses its own derivation method to produce keys from the same BIP-39 seed material. The diagram shows the full flow from mnemonic to chain-specific wallets.
When new blockchain support is added, missing wallets are created automatically on identity load — no user action required.

Chains
Supported blockchains
Each chain is a first-class citizen with native transaction building, token support, and RPC integration. No wrapped tokens, no bridges — real on-chain transactions.
Cellframe
Post-quantum blockchain with Dilithium signatures (NIST Category 5). Native CPUNK token and CF20 standard. Wallet files use the .dwallet format.
- Dilithium Mode 1 — 1,184B public key
- SHA3-256 seed derivation
- Native CPUNK & CELL tokens
Ethereum
Full Ethereum mainnet support with ERC-20 token transfers, RLP encoding, and dynamic gas estimation with slow/normal/fast presets.
- BIP-44 path m/44'/60'/0'/0/0
- EIP-55 checksum addresses
- ERC-20 token support
Solana
High-throughput chain with Ed25519 signatures and SPL token standard. SLIP-10 derivation ensures compatibility with the Solana ecosystem.
- SLIP-10 Ed25519 derivation
- SPL token transfers
- Native SOL transactions
TRON
TRON mainnet with TRC-20 token support. Uses secp256k1 signing with Base58Check address encoding. Full RPC integration for balance queries and transfers.
- secp256k1 key derivation
- Base58Check addresses
- TRC-20 token transfers
Security
Post-quantum seed protection
Kyber1024 Encrypted Seed Storage
Your master seed is encrypted at rest using Kyber1024 — a NIST-standardized post-quantum key encapsulation mechanism. Even if your device storage is compromised, the seed remains protected against both classical and quantum attacks.
- Encrypted storage: Kyber1024 private key (3,168 bytes) — quantum-safe at rest
- Secure memory: Private keys wiped after signing via
secure_memzero() - On-demand derivation: Keys derived, used, and cleared without ever touching disk
- Local only: All signing happens on your device — private keys never leave the client
