Introduction to WAX
The WAX Network, often referred to as the "King of NFTs," is a leading platform trusted by global brands to launch their NFT sales. Companies like deadmau5, Atari, Topps, William Shatner, Capcom, and others have used WAX to introduce their digital collectibles to the world.
Additionally, WAX is an environmentally friendly blockchain, being 222,000 times more energy-efficient than BTC and ETH.
Creating an Account on the WAX Network
Setting up an account with WAX Cloud Wallet is straightforward, thanks to the user-friendly design of the WAX Dev Team. The wallet is fully secure and integrated into the WAX Network.

Wallet Address
Your wallet address has a unique format ending in .wam
, making it easily recognizable. For example, our address is au2ta.wam
(feel free to send us some WAXP as a token of appreciation!).

Send & Receive: These options allow you to transfer tokens within the WAX Network. Always ensure the recipient’s address has the
.wam

Resources Management: The WAX Network operates on the EOS blockchain, requiring users to manage resources like CPU, NET, and RAM. These are rarely exceeded when acquiring NFTs but are crucial for Dapp usage.
