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 Trenches, Deposit, and the trade ticket use.
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 matching Solana wallet for that same account.
- 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.
