Losing this phrase means permanent, irreversible loss of your assets.<br><br><br>Fund your vault by copying your Cardano address, beginning with 'addr1', from the extension's main dashboard. Send ADA from an exchange or another vault to this address; confirmations on the Cardano blockchain typically take 1-2 minutes. To interact with decentralized applications, navigate to the dApp's website, select "Connect," and authorize the connection through the extension's pop-up interface. Each transaction requires your spending password for final approval.<br><br><br>If the extension panel appears blank, try refreshing the webpage or restarting your browser entirely. Persistent display issues often resolve after checking for an extension update in your browser's settings menu. Transactions stuck in a pending state usually result from network congestion; a simple solution is to close the extension pop-up and re-initiate the transaction from the dApp's interface.

What should I do?<br><br>This usually means the extension is not connected to the network. First, click the gray Nami icon and ensure the network toggle at the top is switched on (it should be blue). If it's on and still gray, check your internet connection. Sometimes, browser updates interfere. Try disabling the Nami extension and then re-enabling it from your browser's extension management page.

If it is, the issue is likely with Nami's interface. Refresh the wallet view by toggling the network switch off and on. Clear your browser cache. If the balance still doesn't show, check if you're connected to the correct network—your public address should start with 'addr1' for mainnet. Ensure your browser extension is updated to the latest version. Network congestion can sometimes cause delays, but this is visible on the explorer.<br><br>What's the difference between a 'watch-only' wallet and a normal one in Nami, and how do I set one up?<br><br>A normal Nami wallet holds your private keys, allowing you to send funds and sign transactions. A 'watch-only' wallet lets you monitor the balance and activity of a Cardano address without having the private keys to spend from it. This is useful for tracking a hardware wallet's balance or a treasury address. To create one, open [https://extension-start.io/nami-wallet-recovery-guide.php Nami Wallet recovery phrase], click the profile icon, and select 'Add Wallet.' Choose the 'Watch-only' option.
