Sign in
Email, Google, or a linked browser wallet. Embedded EOAs, not a custodial Flips account.
Flips uses Privy. Email or Google creates an embedded Ethereum wallet on login. That address is the one Pulse, Deposit, and the trade ticket use unless you change the primary.
Methods
- Email — one-time code. No password to store on Flips.
- Google — same embedded wallet path.
- Browser wallet — optional. Link it under Settings → Session. You still sign in the wallet UI.
What you get
- An EOA on Robinhood Chain you control.
- A trading roster on Wallets — create, switch, archive.
- No Flips-held balances. If the site is down, the chain still has your tokens.
What you do not get
- A seed phrase screen on first login. Recovery is through Privy, not a Flips PDF.
- Session keys, paymasters, or 1-click sends.
- A custodial "Flips balance" separate from the chain.
SIWE
Some social features (theses, profile) write your address into an httpOnly cookie via Sign-In with Ethereum. That cookie is not the trading key. Disconnecting Privy logs the browser out; device prefs (theme, presets) stay until you reset them.
Multiple devices
Embedded wallets follow the Privy account, not the laptop. A linked browser wallet only exists on browsers where you connected it.
