What is a dApp - Decentralised Application?A Decentralized Application (dApp) revolutionizes software by operating on a decentralized network, typically powered by blockchain technology. Unlike traditional apps running on centralized servers, dApps distribute operations across multiple nodes, enhancing security, transparency, and resistance to censorship.Key Features of dApps include:

Decentralisation: No single entity controls the application. It runs on a peer-to-peer network, ensuring robustness and reliability.
Open Source: The code is open-source, allowing anyone to view, modify, and contribute, fostering innovation and collaboration.
Smart Contracts: Utilizes self-executing smart contracts with terms embedded in code to automate and enforce rules without intermediaries.
Blockchain Integration: Built on blockchain platforms like Ethereum, which provide the infrastructure for transaction verification and data storage.

In summary, dApps offer a new way to create and interact with applications that are more secure, transparent, and democratic.

How to Export In-Game Wallet Private Key

What is a private key?

A private key is a secret, alphanumeric code used in cryptography to access and manage your cryptocurrency or digital assets. It acts as a digital signature, proving ownership and enabling secure transactions.

Key Points:

Uniqueness: Each private key is unique, providing secure access to a specific cryptocurrency wallet or account.
Functionality: It allows you to sign transactions, proving that you are the owner of the wallet without exposing the private key itself.
Security: Keeping your private key secure is crucial; if someone gains access to it, they can control your funds.

Think of a private key as the key to a safe deposit box. Just as only the person with the key can open the box and access its contents, only the holder of the private key can access and control the associated cryptocurrency funds.

How can I export my in-game wallet private key?

Navigate to the official CityVerse Tycoon dApp - https://ashitosh-ownplay.github.io/smart-wallet-nfts/
Select the option to "Export Private Key".
On the popup, select "Reveal wallet private key".
You will be prompted to connect with an email or social login.

Make sure you use the same email/social login as you did within the game.

You will receive an OTP (One Time Passcode) to verify your email/social login. Submit it within 15 minutes.
On successful verification of the OTP, you will see your private key. Copy it and store it safely.

How to Store Your Private Key?

Here are some key tips for storing your cryptocurrency private keys securely:

Use Cold Storage: Whenever possible, opt for cold storage solutions. This means keeping your keys offline, away from internet access, on a hardware wallet or a paper wallet. Hardware wallets are generally considered the most secure option.

Avoid Online Storage: Be cautious about storing private keys on devices constantly connected to the internet, like phones or computers. These are more vulnerable to hacking and malware.

Physical Security: If using a paper wallet or hardware wallet, ensure its physical safety. Keep it in a secure location, like a fireproof safe, and avoid water damage or wear-and-tear.

Back it Up: Have a backup copy of your private key stored securely, ideally following the same principles as the original key (offline and safe).

⚠️ Never Share Your Key ⚠️ Your private key is like your PIN - never share it with anyone, not even exchange support or friends.

How To Deposit ETH

What is gas costs?

Gas fees are essentially transaction fees on the Base network. They are paid in a tiny unit of Ether (ETH) called gwei (equivalent to one billionth of an ETH). These fees act as a reward for validators who maintain the Ethereum network by verifying and processing transactions.

Why fees exist: Gas fees compensate validators for their computing power used to process transactions. Without them, there would be less incentive to secure the network.
Price Fluctuation: Gas fees are not fixed, they change based on network traffic. During high congestion periods, fees can spike due to high demand for processing transactions.

Think of gas fees like a toll road. The busier the road (network), the higher the toll (fee) you might pay to get through quicker.
