Almost any project did experience much less interaction with its users and so did we as well. Nevertheless, we could successfully start the first Snapshot voting and will continue on that path to engage with our users in a meaningfull way. We also presented at ETHPrague and DAppcon our current work and also some ideas how to make wallets more accessable. This provided also great opportunities to engage with other teams and their projects. #### Economical roadmap: * [x] Use $MIVA for Snapshot votes about feature prioritization * [x] Add more tokens to be purchased via Ramp.Network * [x] Present at conferences ([ETHPrague 2022](https://youtu.be/UtBtGACPv1E), [DAppCon 2022](https://youtu.be/0LzeGpo_Nzw)) * [x] Forge more cooperations (Celo, Optimism, ...) #### Technical roadmap: * [x] Added Celo network (v1.7.9) * [x] Added Cello test network (v1.7.9) * [x] Added Avalanche network (v1.7.8) * [x] Added Avalanche test network (v1.7.8) * [x] Manual change the network on WalletConnect connection requests (v1.7.9) * [x] New 'Open in Explorer' function in options (v1.7.8) * [x] Unified QR-code scanner for address detection and WalletConnect * [x] Set networks to unmaintained: POA Core, ARTIS ∑1, Rinkeby & Ropsten ### Q2/2022 This quarter was dominated by uncertainty about a looming crypto winter, but that are also good times building new features with less interruptions. Layer 2 support as well as preparations for The Merge of Ethereum was in focus. Due to the changes, several test networks have been deprecated and new ones were added. Therefore several networks had to be sunsetted and to get better feedback from our users we launched the first Snapshot vote for Minerva. #### Economical roadmap: * [x] Prepare to use $MIVA for Snapshot votes * [x] Add more tokens to be purchased via Ramp.Network #### Technical roadmap: * [x] Added Optimism network (v1.7.5) * [x] Added Arbitrum network (v1.7.5) * [x] Added Sepolia, Optimism Kovan and Arbitrum Rinkeby testnet support (v1.7.5) * [x] Filter DApps for all supported networks (v1.7.5) * [x] Improve gas price calculation (v1.7.5) * [x] Use RPC-Proxy infrastructure for all supported chains (v1.7.5) * [x] Improve autodetection of all tokens (v1.7.5) * [x] Prepare for network deprecation (v1.7.5) ### Q1/2022 Crypto ecosystems changed fast in this quarter and L2 systems gained more and more traction. Also Gnosis Chain (former xDAI Chain) was under new management and Binance did rename their Binance Smart Chain to BNB Chain and focued fully on that network. While we thought that DID integrations will become a thing (e.g. through "Login with Ethereum"), they still got not enough traction to get us conviced implementing more than we have. Therefore, we will wait until a better time. #### Economical roadmap: * [x] Get involved in running a relyable bridging infrastructure * [x] More DApps in Services and options for sponsering * [x] Forge more cooperations #### Technical roadmap: * [x] Enable full NFT (ERC-721/ERC-1155) support (v1.7.0) * [x] Support for all NFT media types (SVG, mp4, mp3, ...) (v1.7.0) * [x] Sending NFTs (v1.7.0) * [x] DApp Favorites (v1.7.0) * [x] Rename xDAI Chain to Gnosis Chain (v1.7.0) * [x] Advanced Settings: Clear Token Cache (v1.7.0) * [x] Improved SuperToken streaming visualization (v1.7.1) * [x] Support ENS NFTs and Unstoppable Domain NFTs (v1.7.1) * [x] Rename Binance Smart Chain to BNB Chain (v1.7.1) ### Q4/2021 Many DApps are already offer multi-chain support and therefore the Minerva Wallet will continue to integrate more chains and Layer 2 solutions, to serve the needs of many new users coming to the space. Strategic cooperations will be forged with partners actively growing the DeFi space and the Ethereum ecosystem. Combined marketing and mutual support with our cooperation partners. #### Economical roadmap: * [x] Get whitelisted for [1inch via WalletConnect](https://twitter.com/MinervaWallet/status/1447576928878305283?s=20) * [x] Update [CoinMarketCap listing](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/minerva-wallet/) * [x] Enable bridging of $MIVA via [Connext](https://connext.network/) * [x] Additional liquidity mining on Symmetric DEX via [Minerva Streaming Farms](https://farm.minerva.digital) * [x] Forge more cooperations ([Symmetric](https://symmetric.finance/), [DeHive](https://dehive.finance/)) #### Technical roadmap: * [x] Integrate DApps to Services screen (v1.6.5) * [x] Stabilize WalletConnect connections * [x] Add more DApps to Services screen (v1.6.8) * [x] Optimizing the data exchange with 3rd party API's * [x] Integrate ETH 2.0 staking via StakeWise and WalletConnect * [x] Improve caching token management and decimals visualization * [x] UI improvements: * Space corrections and size adjustments * Improved visualization for token handling * Unified, security relevant wording "Secret Recovery Phrase" ### Q3/2021 After laying the foundation to reduce the complexity in multi-chain applications, growing the Minerva Wallet community is the major focus in Q3. This is planned to be realized through the integration of new networks and various activities around the $MIVA SuperToken. #### Economical roadmap: * [x] Update [CoinGecko Listing](https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/minerva-wallet) - show Circulating supply * [x] List on [Symmetric DEX](https://xdai-pools.symmetric.exchange/#/pool/0x1eb301fef9964864ee2d4b876024ca489ce7f50d/) * [x] Increase $MIVA liquidity on [Symmetric](https://xdai.symmetric.exchange/#/swap) * [x] [CoinMarketCap Listing](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/minerva-wallet/) * [x] Publish public release (**End of Beta phase**) on [Google PlayStore](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=digital.minerva) #### Technical roadmap: * [x] Change account name * [x] Allow import of Secret Recovery Phrase (e.g. from Metamask) (v1.5) * [x] Enable mobile WalletConnect (v1.5.5) * [x] Automatically update token balances for streaming tokens (v1.5.5) * [x] Enable Binance Smart Chain (BSC) (v1.6) * [x] Adapt 'Buy Crypto' to include BNB on BSC (v1.6) * [x] Cached token balances (v1.6) * [x] Integrate alternative gas oracle for Gasnow (v1.6) * [x] UI improvements: * One onboarding screen before getting started (v1.5) * Faster start animation (v1.6) * Remove warning when offline (v1.6) ### Q2/2021 The focus will be to make the Minerva Wallet fully financially viable by introducing the [$MIVA SuperToken](/miva-and-xdai-chain/miva-token).

No, not yet. We want to see some more features completed on Android, before we start working on the iOS implementation. ### Where can I find Minerva Wallet in the Google Play Store? Minerva Wallet was officially released in April 2020 (see our official [Medium post](https://lab10collective.medium.com/proudly-presenting-minerva-wallet-64128ef966ae)), and it can be downloaded from the Google Play Store [here](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=digital.minerva). ### What happens if I losse my Secret Recovery Phrase. Can you help me? The Minerva Wallet is a non-custodial wallet and we have no access or knowledge at any point in time of your Secret Recovery Phrase. Therefore, you need to keep it a secret, store it in a way that noone can access it and never provide it on a website. ### Can I become a tester? Yes, we are working on a public testing option. Right now we are testing internally and once development circles leave enough room for two weeks of public testing, we will onboard well experienced testers to make sure that releases are as bug-free as possible. Join our [Discord](https://discord.gg/UzKcmMZNjm), so that we can keep you in the loop of this upcoming option. # Comparisons Comparisons between the Minerva wallet and other wallets helps us to see what might we missing features and it helps users with to choose the suitable mobile wallet. Minerva is part of a 3rd generation of wallets, focusing on ease of use for newcomers and still give power users the needed tools to solve various problems they face when they interact with blockchains via mobile wallets. There are roughly three mobile wallet categories: | Multicoin Wallets | EVM-Chain Wallets | Browser Wallets | | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Multicoin wallets are supporting as many coins and tokens as possible on all sorts of chains with different technologies and key management. | Ethereum protocol focus (mainnet, sidechains, L2) with vast amounts of tokens and an increasing number of connected chains. | The famous Burner Wallet started a new generation of wallets which are just a website and can be opened with every browser. | | Users have typically a high investment focus and rely on integrations done by the wallet provider. | Users are more DApp oriented and like to experiment with DeFi and the full scale of the token universe. | Users are mostly newcomers learning to handle crypto with rather simple and basic interfaces. | |
  • Secure
  • Dependence on Financial Integrations
  • Focus more on Coins
|
  • Secure
  • Full DApp Support
  • Focus on Ethereum or all EVM chains
|
  • Not Secure
  • Easy to Use
  • Limited Coin and Token Support
| | Trust Wallet, Exodus, Coinomi, Ledger Live, Atomic Wallet | Minerva Wallet, AlphaWallet, Metamask Mobile, imToken, Argent | Burner Wallet or Minerva Cash | Every wallet has pros and cons and suits different purposes, supports different applications and chains. Consequently, it is hard to say which one is better and so we try to give a little help to select the most useful one(s) for testing it our yourself. You can join our [Minerva Wallet Telegram channel](https://t.me/MinervaWallet) , if you have further questions. # AlphaWallet We have a very friendly and cooperating relationship with AlphaWallet and continuously work together in many areas. Planned features for Minerva Wallet are added and if known, we do that also for AlphaWallet.

The Minerva Wallet SuperToken (MIVA token) is an ERC-20 compatible governance token for the Minerva Wallet DAO. The MIVA token can be freely transferred between accounts and exchanged for other assets on the [Gnosis Chain](https://xdaichain.com) as well as moved to other chains via established bridges. More on bridges can be found [here](https://docs.tokenbridge.net/). With various incentive, funding and rewarding programs the circulating supply will be gradually increased over time and will depend on capital needs and the growth in monthly active users of the Minerva Wallet. MIVA token holders will be eligible to vote in the Minerva Wallet DAO and help defining the future course of this wallet and how can access particular services and features. Such use cases could be: * Premium features access * Special recovery service * Discounts on swaps * Discounts on crypto purchases * Transaction fee payment * Prioritized personal support * Feature voting rights {% hint style="info" %} Symbol: MIVA\ Name: Minerva Wallet SuperToken\ Decimals: 18\ Contract Address: `0x63e62989D9EB2d37dfDB1F93A22f063635b07d51`\ Total Supply: 1,000,000,000\ Minted: March 15, 2021\ Blockchain: Gnosis Chain (former xDai Chain) | Chain ID: 100\ Block Explorer: [MIVA SuperToken contract](https://blockscout.com/xdai/mainnet/tokens/0x63e62989D9EB2d37dfDB1F93A22f063635b07d51/token-transfers) {% endhint %} ### MIVA SuperToken - Tokenomics The largest portions of the token supply are reserved for the community treasury (30%) and for funding & grants (30%) in order to scale up the token economics for the Minerva Wallet.

Here, we will explain seven (7) possible ways to get it. xDai is a stable coin that is pegged to the US Dollar. In simpler words, a stable coin that minimizes the usual volatility of most cryptocurrency prices and allows more stability to its transactions. We consider its low transaction fees and fast transaction time a very strong point. Therefore, we're gonna walk you through seven (7) different ways of getting xDai. ![](/files/-M_eDhuJ9xlPRSfvpaFD) 1.

There is more than one way of doing it. \ We'll show you both ways, and let you choose which route you rather take. {% tabs %} {% tab title="PancakeSwap Route" %} This route is fairly easy to follow. First, we swap a cryptocurrency from BSC (such as **BNB**) for one of the three cryptocurrencies accepted on the brigde we'll use later on. Then, making use of that same bridge, we convert them into xDai. {% hint style="warning" %} You'll need a few **BNB** to pay the transaction fees. {% endhint %} **(1)** Access [PancakeSwap](https://exchange.pancakeswap.finance/#/swap) exchange page.\ **(2)** **Connect** your Wallet (Tap the "**Connect**" at the page's top right corner). \ **(4)** Choose the cryptocurrencies to be exchanged. ![](/files/-MYMlhJSP3i7tgqZop-H) {% hint style="info" %} Convert the **cryptocurrency of your choice** into one of these three (3) options: **DAI, USDC or USDT.** {% endhint %} Once the exchange is done, go to [**Cross-Chain Bridge.**](https://www.xpollinate.io/)\ **(1)** **Connect** your wallet to the Binance Smart Chain Network.\ **(2)** Select the **Binance Smart Chain Network** as the **outgoing** network \ **(3)** Select **xDai Chain** as the **incoming** network.\ **(4)** Select the **currency** you want to exchange (in this case, **DAI**).\ **(5)** Paste **your Wallet Address** into the "**Receiver Address**" field.\ **(6)** Press the **Cross-Chain Transfer** button.\ **(7)** Wait for a bit, then **Confirm** the transaction. ![](/files/-MYMm1OMm7PdGOaiVX2G) {% hint style="info" %} The processing of the transaction may take a few minutes.

Go check the newly acquired xDai in your Wallet.** {% endhint %} {% endtab %} {% tab title="BSC OmniBridge Route" %} This route is made of three different tools that complete the whole process. {% hint style="info" %} There's a tutorial [video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGqKPqCF6Zc\&t=422s), from a non-official third-party. {% endhint %} We start by also making use of a bridge. This one is created by the **xDai Chain** itself, and it's called **BSC OmniBridge**. It allows users to move ERC20 tokens (such as **DAI**, among others) between **xDai Chain** and **BSC.** {% hint style="danger" %} Bear in mind, however, that **BSC OmniBridge is a beta software.**\ Use at your own risk. {% endhint %} Now, this process might look lengthy, but it's only a repetitive row of clicks.

On the main page, open the "**TRADE"** tab. 2. Select "**Cash Trading**", then the **Standard** option. 3. At the top left corner of the page, write "**xDai**" in the **search box**. 4. Select the "**XDAI/USDT**" option that will show in the results. 5. At the bottom of the page, you'll see the **BUY/SELL** options. {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} Choose between a **LIMIT ORDER** or a **MARKET ORDER**. * **Limit order:** You buy at a specific price or better. * **Market order:** You buy immediately at the best available price on the market. {% tabs %} {% tab title="Limit Order" %} 1.

There you have it, your own xDai coins!** {% endhint %} This process provides a direct channel to the xDai Chain, and better yet, it saves xDai users money on gas, which would usually elevate the cost of transactions. {% hint style="info" %} **Almost done! But not quite yet.** \ Now, you need to **WITHDRAW** your newly acquired **xDai** to your wallet. {% endhint %} You can check a good video tutorial on how to do that [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NfA5yMZUVTw).\ To go straight to the point, follow these next few steps: ![](/files/-MYMhHgsk3_AtQOGupKv) **(1)** On AscendEX main page, click on "**My Asset"**.\ **(2)** Choose the "**Cash Account"** from the dropdown.\ **(3)** Click on "**Withdrawal**". ![](/files/-MYMhT8WmdNR8eYSy0mB) **(4)** Select the **token** you want to withdraw (**xDai** in this case). \ **(5)** Fill the requested **info correctly.**\ **a.** Select the *Public Chain Type* (attention that **fees** differ based on chains).\ **b.** Paste the *Withdrawal Address* from your wallet into the blank address field.\ **c.** Specify the desired amount. ![](/files/-MYMhXKQ2H-fqL4xgIv2) **(6)** Check everything and and press "**Confirm**".\ **(7)** There may be a SMS verification and Google authentication. Enter the codes and **confirm** it again.\ **(8)** After only a couple of minutes, **the xDai will be on your web3 Wallet**. {% hint style="success" %} **DONE! This time, for real. Purchase and withdrawal completed.** {% endhint %} # (4) Move DAI from Ethereum Mainnet Transfer your DAI tokens from the Ethereum Mainnet to the xDai Chain, and convert them into xDai coins. You can convert the DAI tokens on your Ethereum network to xDai coins that live on the xDai Chain, using a tool called **xDai TokenBridges,** occasionally shortened to **TokenBridge** or simply **xDai-Bridge**. {% hint style="info" %} Here's a [video ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oKdh2cOOqUs)that shows this process step-by-step. {% endhint %} This very same process but written: \ First, you'll need **DAI tokens**. If you already have some, good for you. If you don't, exchange some fiat money (Euro, USD, etc) for DAI on the Ethereum Mainnet. **(1)** Now, access the [xDai-bridge](https://dai-bridge.poa.network/). **(2)** Connect your **web3 wallet** (it will show your balance on both chains). **(3)** Set the right amount to convert and confirm it. ![Picture courtesy of xDai Chain.](/files/-MYMejju0xnJHV4CeIhk) **(4)** A **pop-up** will show, revealing the transaction current status. **(5)** Click on it. It will lead you to a page called *Etherscan*, showing you the transaction's pending progression. **(6)** After some time, the status will show "**success**", **completing the process.** {% hint style="warning" %} However, **note that there'll still be some time** **before the transaction is official**. This waiting time assures the blockchain everything is in order. {% endhint %} {% hint style="success" %} There's nothing you need to do for now. It also won't take long. After this brief period, the transaction is official and you can now check your balance on both chains and the **successfully exchanged tokens.** {% endhint %} This so called "bridge" is a helpful tool used to *move and convert* assets between different chains (like the Ethereum Network and xDai Chain). The xDai Chain has **three different types of bridges** (read more about them [here](https://www.xdaichain.com/for-users/bridges)), we covered one of them when talking about BSC, and this other one now, the **xDai-Bridge.** For further details on how this bridge works, [check here](https://www.xdaichain.com/for-users/bridges/converting-xdai-via-bridge). {% hint style="info" %} **OmniBridge Faucet** The xDai Chain implemented a new [**OmniBridge Faucet**](https://www.xdaichain.com/for-users/get-xdai-tokens/xdai-faucet#omnibridge-faucet): It automatically deposits a small amount of xDai **($0.01)** to new users bridging their tokens from Ethereum Mainnet or BSC - **applies only to wallets with a 0 xDai balance**. This helps the onboarding process of new users, enabling them to make transactions right away! {% endhint %} # (5) Move DAI from Polygon Transfer your DAI tokens from Polygon (Matic) to the xDai Chain, and convert them into xDai coins. Following the same premise as the other methods, you can move your DAI tokens from one chain to another, effectively converting them into xDai. This cross-chain bridge lets users convert **DAI on Polygon (Matic) to xDai** (among others). Simple and inexpensive, it's called **Xpollinate.** {% hint style="danger" %} Powered by [Connext](https://connext.network/) and [1Hive](https://1hive.org/#/home), **Xpollinate** is a beta software.\ Use at your own risk. {% endhint %} {% hint style="warning" %} **Important Note:** You may need a very small amount of **Matic coin** to pay the transaction fee when converting DAI from Matic to the xDai native token on the xDai chain. {% endhint %} **(1)** Access[ Xpollinate](https://www.xpollinate.io/).\ **(2)** Connect your web3 **Wallet**. ![](/files/-MZiGKHDnRXrcYNBXZed) **(3)** **Select** the chain you want to transfer from (**Matic Mainnet to xDai Chain**).\ **(4)** Fill in the **Receiver's address** field: Copy and paste **your own Wallet address.** ![](/files/-MZiJH6kQn1ARZCMrVCp) \ **(5)** Press the **SWAP** button**.**\ **(6)** A pop up will show: **Sign in your wallet again** to go to the next step. It might take a few seconds, but once it is done, this is what you will see: ![](/files/-MZiP65D6uItuNTnAhkL) **(7)** Proceed to set the chosen **amount of tokens** to transfer.\ **(8)** **Check** the info, to verify you're satisfied with the outcome, and **press Swap.**\ **(9) Confirm** the transaction.\ **(10)** The transaction will be processed and **completed** in a few moments! Usually it only takes a few seconds, but it might take longer. After the pop-up shows "**SUCCESS**", indicating the transaction's completion, we recommend you to check the balance in your wallet. {% hint style="success" %} **Done! Transaction succeeded. Easy and cheap, as promised.** {% endhint %} # (6) xDai Faucets Go to any of the existing xDai Faucets and attempt to claim one xDai for free. Luckily, there are **three different faucets** for you to try on. The **first faucet** is provided by ***yours truly!*** \ You'll need at least **10 MIVA** in your account, plus an xDai balance of **0.** \ With both items checked off on the list, you can request **0.01 xDai**. {% hint style="success" %} **Fly to the** [**Minerva xDai faucet**](https://minerva.digital/#faucet) and get yourself some **xDai.** {% endhint %} The **second faucet** is brought by **Gnosis Chain** itself. {% hint style="success" %} **Access the** [**Gnosis Chain faucet** ](https://gnosisfaucet.com/)and receive a couple **xDai**. {% endhint %} Lastly, the **third faucet** belongs to [**1Hive**](https://1hive.org/#/home)**.** \ It's an open community that anyone can be a part of. \ Making justice to their friendly image of buzzy bees, **they also have an xDai faucet.** {% hint style="success" %} **Go to the** [**1Hive xDai faucet**](https://xdai-faucet.top/) and try to claim some free **xDai.** {% endhint %} {% hint style="danger" %} Now, this one might **NOT WORK**. Why?\ Because this faucet may be already "dry" by the time you get there. {% endhint %} **The faucet only allows one free xDai per address.** However, it's known some people create multiple accounts to get more and more from their faucet, disrupting the system. *Don't be like those people.* One free sample is **plenty**, enough to pay the fees for hundreds of transactions!\ Go and try your luck, we're rooting for you. # (7) Friendship Have a nice friend or someone you know send you a couple! But remember to be there for them just the same. > "Networking is an essential part of building wealth." \ > *– Armstrong Williams.* One can argue the easiest way of all is to receive some xDai as a gift.\ Free of charge, feeless and without any further implications. But who would give a stranger cryptocoins for no reason at all?\ They probably wouldn't - unless you know something we don't.\ Yet, while a stranger wouldn't... *Perhaps a friend could!* Have a friend of yours send you a few? Friends often gift each other, hint at it!\ Strike a bargain with one, or ask for it as a birthday present, maybe? *Who knows.* We're only saying it's also a valid idea. Just remember friends don't pester one another more than usual.\ Don't be that annoying friend that ignores common sense and begs around. Everyone still wants to get invited to next Sunday's poker game, after all! # Terms of Service Last updated: November 14, 2020 lab10 collective eG ("lab10" or "we" or "us" or "our") has developed these Terms of Service (these "Terms"), describing the terms that govern your use of the Minerva Wallet Application (the "App" or "Minerva Wallet"), a mobile software application which enables the interaction with blockchain networks and manages decentralized identifiers (one "DID" or many "DIDs"), verifiable credentials (one "VC" or many "VCs") and the interaction with services from websites and other mobile software applications to complement and augment your usage of the blockchains and websites (collectively the "Services"). #### Agreement to Terms By clicking "I Agree" or by accessing our Site or using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

The modified Terms will be effective at the time they are posted on the Site. It's important that you review the Terms whenever we modify them because if you continue to use the Services after we have modified the Terms, you are agreeing to be bound by the modified Terms. If you don't agree to be bound by the modified Terms, then you must not use the Services. Because our Services are evolving over time we may change or discontinue all or any part of the Services, at any time and without notice, at our sole discretion. #### Who May Use the Services You may use the Services if you are 13 years or older and are not barred from using the Services under applicable law. #### Security and Wallet Recovery If you want to use the Services you'll have to create a wallet, which can be recovered via a twelve-word seed phrase ("Seed Phrase"). This Seed Phrase must be kept a secret at all times, as it allows everyone to recover the Minerva Wallet from it. Within the App you can create accounts ("Account") and DIDs based on that one Seed Phrase. Every activity and all details regarding all Services are stored in encrypted form on the device and on backup systems. At no time the lab10 is able to read or see any of that information or activity done inside the Minerva Wallet. You're responsible for all activities that occur with your Minerva Wallet, whether or not you know about them. #### Feedback We welcome feedback, comments, ideas, and suggestions for improvements to the Services ("Feedback"). You can submit Feedback by joining our Telegram channel through the in-app community function.

You should not purchase crypto unless you understand the extent of your exposure to potential loss, as Minerva Wallet, acting as a non custodial wallet, does not have access to client funds and does not fall under protection of a financial ombudsman service or fall under any financial service compensation schemes, as we are not acting and performing as an authorised financial services provider. #### Indemnity You will indemnify and hold harmless lab10 and its officers, directors, employees and agents, parent entity and subsidiaries from and against any claims, disputes, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, and costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable legal and accounting fees arising out of or in any way connected with (i) your access to or use of the Services or Content, (ii) your User Content, (iii) Third Party Materials, or (iv) your violation of these Terms. #### Limitation of Liability TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, LAB10 SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES OF ANY TYPE, WHETHER DIRECT OR INDIRECT, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO YOUR USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO DAMAGES ALLEGEDLY ARISING FROM THE COMPROMISE OR LOSS OF YOUR SEED PHRASE OR FUNDS, OR LOSS OF OR INABILITY TO RESTORE ACCESS FROM YOUR BACKUP SEED PHRASE, OR FOR MISTAKES, OMISSIONS, INTERRUPTIONS, DELAYS, DEFECTS AND/OR ERRORS IN THE TRANSMISSION OF TRANSACTIONS OR MESSAGES TO THE ENABLED BLOCKCHAIN NETWORKS, OR THE FAILURE OF ANY MESSAGE TO SEND OR BE RECEIVED BY THE INTENDED RECIPIENT IN THE INTENDED FORM, OR FOR DIMINUTION OF VALUE OF ETHER OR ANY OTHER DIGITAL TOKEN OR DIGITAL ASSET ON THE ENABLED BLOCKCHAIN NETWORKS.

This privacy policy (“Policy”) describes how Minerva Wallet collects, uses, shares, and stores personal information of users of our website, [https://minerva.digital](https://minerva.digital/) and our mobile application, (collectively the “Site”). This Policy applies to the Site, applications, products and services (collectively, “Services”) on or in which it is posted, linked, or referenced. By using the Services, you accept the terms of this Policy and our [Terms of Service](/legal/terms) ("Terms"), and consent to our collection, use, disclosure, and retention of your information as described in this Policy. If you have not done so already, please also review our Terms. The terms of use contain provisions that limit our liability to you and require you to resolve any dispute with us under Austrian law. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH ANY PART OF THIS PRIVACY POLICY OR OUR TERMS OF SERVICE, THEN PLEASE DO NOT USE ANY OF THE SERVICES. #### Information We Collect We receive or collect information when we operate and provide our Services, including when you install, access, or use our Services. #### Information you provide * Your Identities Information - All DIDs, VCs, Contacts and Attribute information in your identities, which you generate and utilize to access Services, are stored on your own device and in an encrypted form on our server to enable a backup procedure via the Seed Phrase. Therefore, neither we nor any third parties can read them.
* Your Transactions - Your Network private keys, which you utilize to access your assets and initiate transactions, are stored only on your own device. All interactions with Networks are done either done through third-party services (governed by their privacy policy) or are facilitated by services offered by the lab10. * Your use of Services - Whenever you interact with third-party service providers (e.g. a decentralized exchange or another app on device), it is up to you if you want to consent to the requested information. * Customer Support - We may collect additional information you may disclose to our customer support team. #### Automatically collected information * Metrics and Performance Data - We may collect service-related, diagnostic, and performance information. This includes high level information about your activity (such as how you use our Services and how you interact with others using our Services), and diagnostic, crash, website, and performance logs and reports. * Device and Connection Information - We may collect device-specific information when you install, access, or use our Services. This may include your IP address and, if you choose to allow push notifications through Minerva Wallet, your device's unique push token. * Status Information - We may collect information about your online status on our Services, such as when you last used our Services (your „last seen status“). #### How We Use The Information We Collect Our primary purpose in collecting information is to help us operate, provide, improve, customize, support, and market our Services. We may use your information to: * Provide the Services and customer support you request; * Verify your identity; * Resolve disputes and troubleshoot problems; * Prevent and investigate potentially prohibited or illegal activities, and/or violations of our posted Terms; * Customize, measure, and improve the Services and the content and layout of our application; and * Deliver targeted marketing and service update notices based on your communications preferences. We will not use your information for purposes other than those purposes we have disclosed to you, without your permission. #### Marketing We will never sell or rent your information to third parties. Any communications we send to you will either be related to your Minerva Wallet or will be related to the Services. In the event we send any communication to you which is not related specifically to your Minerva Wallet, we will provide you with an „unsubscribe“ mechanism through which you may opt out of receiving other similar messages in the future. We do not allow third-party banner ads on Minerva Wallet, but if we ever do, we will update this policy. #### How Your Information Is Shared With Other Minerva Wallet Users If you use your Accounts to send a transaction to another user, that user will have access to your transaction information, respectively. Users with whom you interact with may store or re-share your information with others, on or off of our Services. We, however, will never have access to your underlying messages or store your transaction information. #### How We Share Information With Third Parties We work with third-party providers to help us operate, provide, improve, customize, support, and market our Services. For example, we work with companies to distribute our apps, provide our infrastructure, delivery, and other systems. These providers may provide us information about you in certain circumstances; for example, app stores may provide us reports to help us diagnose and fix service issues. #### We may also share information with law enforcement, government officials, or other third parties when: * We are compelled to do so by a subpoena, court order, or similar legal procedure; or * We believe in good faith that the disclosure of personal information is necessary to prevent physical harm or financial loss, to report suspected illegal activity or to investigate violations of our Terms. The Minerva Wallet is considered by us as a public good and therefore the lab10, which by itself is a non-profit cooperative, has no intention to make the App available to be acquired. #### How we keep your information safe We use a number of technical and procedural measures to ensure the safety of your data. These include encrypting data, only storing and transferring it where we know it is safe and restricting access to who can see or use the data. #### How you can access or change your information If you would like to manage, change, limit, or delete your information within the Minerva Wallet, you can always do that on your device and the changed data is backed up on our server. We do provide a feature within the App that will display your locally stored secret, twelve-word Seed Phrase to you so that you may write it down and keep a copy of it off of your device.
You can also access your Minerva Wallet via another device by using your Seed Phrase and recover the wallet on the other device. Nevertheless, we should highlight, that this might lead to data inconsistencies and you should make sure that you make changes to your data (e.g. transactions, new accounts, etc.) only when you have frequently good internet connection with your devices so that every device can pull the latest data from the server.
You may delete your Minerva Wallet from your device at any time. When you delete your App, your data will stay for six more months on our servers before it may be deleted. This will enable a full recovery even if you have not installed the Minerva Wallet with its corresponding seed phrase on any device for up to six months. After that you will still be able to recover your Accounts and DIDs, but custom names, contacts, transaction history, etc. are starting from afresh. #### What rights do I have to my information? You have various rights in your information such as the right to ask us what information we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete information about you or to restrict our use of it. You also have the right to request us to export or transfer data to other companies and storage places. And you have the right to complain about our use of your data and submit a complaint to the relevant data protection authority. #### Our Global Operations You agree to our information practices, including the collection, use, processing, and sharing of your information as described in this Privacy Policy, as well as the transfer and processing of your information to the United States and other countries globally where we have or use facilities, service providers, or partners, regardless of where you use our Services. You acknowledge that the laws, regulations, and standards of the country in which your information is stored or processed may be different from those of your own country. However, we require our service providers to treat your information in strict confidence and use appropriate security measures to protect it. We also require them to uphold all obligations under this Privacy Policy. #### Updates To Our Policy We may amend or update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes to this policy by updating the last updated date at the top of this page, and we will provide you with explicit notice of material changes as required by law. Your continued use of our Services confirms your acceptance of our Privacy Policy, as amended. If you do not agree to our Privacy Policy, as amended, you must stop using our Services. We recommend that you visit this page frequently to check for changes. #### Who do I contact to find our more or make a complaint? If you have any questions, comments or complaints regarding how we collect, use and store information about you, join our community Telegram channel linked in the App and ask for further information. # HD Key-Derivation The derivation paths used for HD Key-Derivation are important in case someone needs to recover from a seed phrase only and if particular private keys should be imported to other wallets, e.g. Metamask. Minerva uses three derivation paths: Identities (DIDs) -> `m/73'/0'/0'/index`\ Main Networks -> `m/44'/60'/0'/0/index`\ Test Networks -> `m/44'/1'/0'/0/index` This clear distinction allows Minerva to avoid any mixing of indexes for identities (DIDs), main networks (e.g. Ethereum, ARTIS ∑1 or xDai Chain) and test networks (e.g. Kovan, Rinkeby or Görli). If the Minerva seed phrase (12-words) is imported to Metamask, it will generate the same keys and consequently the same addresses for **main networks**. {% hint style="info" %} Metamask **won't** be able to access your tokens and coins you handled in Minerva on the test networks like Kovan, Rinkeby, Görli, etc. unless you use another tool to get a private key for the account at a specific path and import that into Metamask. {% endhint %}
