Use the IBM Digital Asset Haven dashboard to create wallets that are fully managed and controlled by your organization.

1. Create a new wallet

  2. Click Create wallet.
  3. In the creation panel, select a blockchain network from the list of supported networks.

  6. Click Create and sign the action using your passkey.

A new wallet is created and appears in the wallets list.

2. Use your wallet
When the wallet is created:
  • A private key is generated and securely stored in the IBM Digital Asset Haven key infrastructure.
  • The wallet address is displayed on the wallet details page.
  • IBM Digital Asset Haven begins monitoring the blockchain to index transactions and display balances for the wallet.
Note: Tokens are tracked only for Tier 1 blockchain networks.
After the wallet receives assets:
  1. Scroll to the relevant asset on the wallet page.
  2. Click Send to initiate a transfer.
  3. Enter the destination wallet address and the amount to send.
  4. Click Transfer and sign the transaction using your passkey.
The transfer request is submitted and processed according to your organization’s policies.
Step 3: Monitor transactions
  1. After you initiate a transfer, view it on the wallet page.
  2. Check the Status column to track the progress of the transaction.
For a description of each transaction status, see Sign and Broadcast Transaction.
Note: A Pending status indicates that a policy requires approval. An approver must navigate to the Approvals section of the dashboard and approve the transaction.
You can track the lifecycle and outcome of each transaction directly from the wallet page.
