Blazor Wallet Connection

Connect browser wallets in Blazor using EIP-6963 multi-wallet discovery (recommended), MetaMask, or WalletConnect/Reown.

Option 1: EIP-6963 Multi-Wallet Discovery (Recommended)

EIP-6963 discovers all installed browser wallets. Users choose which to connect. This is the modern replacement for window.ethereum.

NuGet: Nethereum.Blazor

Setup

Add the JS interop script to your index.html or _Host.cshtml:

<script src="_content/Nethereum.Blazor/NethereumEIP6963.js"></script>

builder.Services.AddSingleton<IEthereumHostProvider, EIP6963HostProvider>();
builder.Services.AddSingleton<AuthenticationStateProvider, EthereumAuthenticationStateProvider>();

Use the Component

@using Nethereum.Blazor
@inject IEthereumHostProvider EthereumHostProvider

<EIP6963Wallet OnWalletConnected="HandleWalletConnected" />

@code {
    private async Task HandleWalletConnected(string address)
    {
        var web3 = await EthereumHostProvider.GetWeb3Async();
        var balance = await web3.Eth.GetBalance.SendRequestAsync(address);
    }
}

Option 2: MetaMask Direct

NuGet: Nethereum.Metamask.Blazor

Setup (Program.cs)

builder.Services.AddSingleton<IMetamaskInterop, MetamaskBlazorInterop>();
builder.Services.AddSingleton<MetamaskHostProvider>();
builder.Services.AddSingleton(services =>
{
    var metamaskHostProvider = services.GetService<MetamaskHostProvider>();
    var selectedHostProvider = new SelectedEthereumHostProviderService();
    selectedHostProvider.SetSelectedEthereumHostProvider(metamaskHostProvider);
    return selectedHostProvider;
});
builder.Services.AddSingleton<AuthenticationStateProvider, EthereumAuthenticationStateProvider>();

Connect and Use

@inject MetamaskHostProvider MetamaskHostProvider

<button @onclick="ConnectAsync">Connect MetaMask</button>
<p>Address: @Address</p>

@code {
    private string? Address;

    protected override Task OnInitializedAsync()
    {
        MetamaskHostProvider.SelectedAccountChanged += async (address) =>
        {
            Address = address;
            await InvokeAsync(StateHasChanged);
        };
        return Task.CompletedTask;
    }

    private async Task ConnectAsync()
    {
        await MetamaskHostProvider.EnableProviderAsync();
        Address = await MetamaskHostProvider.GetProviderSelectedAccountAsync();
        var web3 = await MetamaskHostProvider.GetWeb3Async();
    }
}

Option 3: WalletConnect / Reown AppKit

NuGet: Nethereum.Reown.AppKit.Blazor

Setup (Program.cs)

builder.Services.AddAppKit(new()
{
    ProjectId = "YOUR_REOWN_PROJECT_ID",
    Name = "My dApp",
    Networks = NetworkConstants.Networks.All,
    Url = builder.HostEnvironment.BaseAddress,
});

Get a project ID from https://cloud.reown.com/sign-in

Use the AppKit Button

@using Nethereum.Reown.AppKit.Blazor
@inject IEthereumHostProvider EthereumHostProvider

<appkit-button />
<appkit-network-button />

@if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Address))
{
    <p>Connected: @Address on chain @ChainId</p>
}

@code {
    private string? Address;
    private long? ChainId;

    protected override async Task OnInitializedAsync()
    {
        EthereumHostProvider.SelectedAccountChanged += async (address) =>
        {
            Address = address;
            await InvokeAsync(StateHasChanged);
        };

        EthereumHostProvider.NetworkChanged += async (chainId) =>
        {
            ChainId = chainId;
            await InvokeAsync(StateHasChanged);
        };
    }
}

Getting Web3 After Connection

All providers implement IEthereumHostProvider. Once connected:

var web3 = await ethereumHostProvider.GetWeb3Async();
var blockNumber = await web3.Eth.Blocks.GetBlockNumber.SendRequestAsync();
var balance = await web3.Eth.GetBalance.SendRequestAsync(address);

Event Handling

All providers raise events for account and network changes:

ethereumHostProvider.SelectedAccountChanged += async (address) => { ... };
ethereumHostProvider.NetworkChanged += async (chainId) => { ... };
ethereumHostProvider.EnabledChanged += async (enabled) => { ... };

Switching and Adding Chains

await web3.Eth.HostWallet.SwitchEthereumChain.SendRequestAsync(
    new SwitchEthereumChainParameter { ChainId = 10.ToHexBigInteger() });

var chainFeature = ChainDefaultFeaturesServicesRepository.GetDefaultChainFeature(Chain.Optimism);
await web3.Eth.HostWallet.AddEthereumChain.SendRequestAsync(chainFeature.ToAddEthereumChainParameter());

AuthorizeView Integration

All providers work with Blazor's <AuthorizeView>:

<AuthorizeView Roles="EthereumConnected">
    <Authorized>
        <p>Connected as @context.User.Identity?.Name</p>
    </Authorized>
    <NotAuthorized>
        <button @onclick="ConnectAsync">Connect Wallet</button>
    </NotAuthorized>
</AuthorizeView>
