Motion Wallet FAQ — Movement Network

Motion Wallet is the official, Movement-native wallet built specifically for seamless interaction with the Movement network. It's a self-custodial Chrome extension designed for both users and builders — fully aligned with the ecosystem, optimized for its transaction flows, and ready to support future Movement features as they ship.

Motion is available right now as a Chrome browser extension. You can install it directly from the Chrome Web Store, or visit motion.movementnetwork.xyz for more information first.

No separate app, no signup. Add it to your browser, set up your wallet, and you're ready to use Movement.

Motion provides a first-party wallet experience that is fully aligned with the Movement ecosystem. It's optimized for Movement's transaction flows, and designed to support future Movement features the moment they're released.

It's the wallet experience the network has been waiting for — built by the team that knows it best.

No. Third-party wallets like Nightly remain fully supported across Movement.

Motion is a native alternative — not a replacement. Use whichever wallet fits your workflow. If you want the most integrated, Movement-first experience, that's Motion.

Yes. Private keys are stored locally on your device, encrypted, and never transmitted. You retain full control over your assets at all times.

Motion is purpose-built for Movement. That changes the experience in a few important ways:

No network switching — Motion is native to Movement. No more juggling RPCs or hunting down chain configs.
Faster, more reliable — Transaction flows are tuned specifically for Movement's architecture rather than retrofitted from another chain.
Streamlined interactions — Connect, sign, and send without the friction of generalist wallets.
First-party feature support — When Movement ships new capabilities, Motion is built to support them on day one.

Security at the core

Local encryption. Private keys are encrypted on your device. Nothing leaves your machine — not the keys, not the seed phrase.
Never transmitted. Keys are never sent to any server, ever. Self-custody isn't a marketing line — it's how Motion is built.
User-approved transactions. Every transaction requires your explicit approval. Nothing happens behind your back.
Open browser standards. Motion follows standard browser-extension security practices and the same web3 wallet patterns developers already trust.

Built secure, not bolted on. Security is part of Motion's core architecture, not an afterthought. See the audit details in the next question.

Independent audits

OtterSec. Comprehensive security audit by one of the most respected firms in the space, with deep coverage of Move-based architectures.
Sherlock. Independent verification from Sherlock's contest-style review process — additional eyes, additional rigor.

Reports are public. All audit reports are published openly at motion.movementnetwork.xyz. Read them, share them, verify them.

Motion follows standard browser-wallet patterns with an injected provider. Your dApp can detect, connect, and request transaction signing the same way it does with any other web3 wallet.

If your dApp already supports Movement-compatible wallets, integration with Motion should require no changes — the standard connect, sign, and send flows just work.
