Navigating the world of blockchain credentials can be tricky — especially when managing multiple wallets and social identities. Galxe ID simplifies this by serving as your universal blockchain username, aggregating achievements, credentials, and activity across networks. In this comprehensive guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know about Galxe ID, including how to manage EVM and non-EVM wallets, change your primary wallet safely, unlink social accounts, and recover a reset Galxe ID.
Whether you're a seasoned web3 user or just getting started, understanding these core mechanics is essential to preserving your progress and maximizing your participation in Galxe campaigns.
What Is Galxe ID?
At its core, Galxe ID is your Galxe account — a unique digital identity that ties together your wallets, social profiles, email, and on-chain achievements. Think of it as a professional portfolio for the decentralized world, similar to LinkedIn but built for blockchain credentials.
Each Galxe ID has a unique identifier (e.g., jMTu5QHqnQuCBh4FCiVUcY), which you won’t usually see directly. It’s stored in cookies or URLs when you interact with Galxe features like leaderboards. Despite common confusion, your wallet address or email is not your Galxe ID — they’re simply login methods linked to your Galxe ID.

Key Points About Galxe ID
- One identity, multiple logins: You can log in via an EVM wallet, Discord, Twitter/X, email, or non-EVM wallets (Solana, Aptos, etc.). All are linked to the same Galxe ID.
- Automatic creation: If you log in using a method not previously associated with any Galxe ID, a new account is created automatically.
- Progress is tied to Galxe ID: Loyalty points, campaign progress, and SBTs (Soulbound Tokens) belong to your Galxe ID — not your wallet.
⚠️ Warning: Logging in with a new wallet or social account that isn’t already linked may create a new Galxe ID. This can lead to losing access to your original progress if you're not careful.
How to Connect a Secondary EVM Wallet
Connecting a secondary EVM wallet allows you to verify activity from multiple addresses while keeping rewards tied to your primary wallet. This is useful for testnet participation, credential verification, or security purposes.
Why Use a Secondary EVM Wallet?
- Prove activity from a testnet wallet without claiming rewards there.
- Maintain credentials from a compromised wallet while switching your primary.
- Aggregate on-chain data across different addresses.
Step-by-Step Guide
- Log in to your existing Galxe ID (use a social or email if possible).
- Go to Galxe ID Settings > Wallet Address.
- Under EVM Chain, click the + button.
- Switch to the desired wallet address in your wallet app (e.g., MetaMask).
- Click Next, then Add Now.
- Confirm and sign the transaction in your wallet.
✅ Done! The secondary wallet will now contribute activity data. Rewards will still go to your primary wallet.
📝 Note 1: You must delete all secondary wallets before removing the primary one.
📝 Note 2: Both primary and secondary EVM wallets must be in the same wallet application (e.g., both in MetaMask). To add an address from another app (like Taho), import it into your main wallet first.
How to Link Non-EVM Wallets (Solana, Aptos, Starknet & More)
Galxe supports cross-chain identity verification. You can link wallets from Solana, Aptos, Sei, Injective, Flow, and Starknet to prove activity across ecosystems.
Supported chains include:
- Solana (via Phantom)
- Aptos
- Sei
- Injective
- Flow
- Starknet (via Braavos or Argent X)
How to Add a Non-EVM Wallet
- Log in to your Galxe ID.
- Navigate to Settings > Wallet Address.
- Click on the chain name (e.g., Solana).
- Select your preferred wallet from the list.
- Sign the connection request in your wallet.
✅ Your wallet is now linked and can be used for campaign eligibility.
🔐 Security Tips for Starknet Wallets:
- Braavos: Enable only "Seed Phrase Signer" in security settings.
- Argent X: Disable Argent Shield before linking.

How to Change Your Primary EVM Wallet Without Losing Progress
Need to switch your main wallet due to security concerns or migration? Follow this safe process to preserve all your credentials and loyalty points.
Why Change Your Primary Wallet?
- Your current wallet has been compromised.
- You’re moving to a more secure or feature-rich wallet.
- You want to consolidate activity under a new address.
Safe Migration Steps
- Log in via social/email (not through any EVM wallet).
- Go to Settings > Wallet Address.
- Delete all secondary EVM wallets (click the trash icon).
- Remove the current primary EVM wallet.
- Switch to your new EVM address in your wallet app.
- Click + under EVM Chain and add the new address.
- Sign the connection request.
✅ Your Galxe ID remains intact — only the primary wallet changes.
⚠️ Never log in directly with the new wallet first — this risks creating a new Galxe ID.
How to Unlink a Social Account From a Galxe ID
If you see “This social account is already linked,” it means it’s tied to another Galxe ID. Here’s how to reclaim it.
Scenario A: You Have Access to the Linked Wallet
- Log in using the wallet listed in the error message.
- Go to Settings > Social Accounts.
- Unlink the desired social account.
Scenario B: You Don’t Have Access to the Original Wallet
Use a brand-new wallet (EVM or non-EVM) that has never been linked to any Galxe ID:
- Create a new wallet.
- Log in via the social account you want to unlink.
- Add the new wallet as primary or secondary.
- Log out and clear browser cache/cookies.
- Log back in using the new wallet.
- Go to Social Accounts and unlink the unwanted profile.
✅ Pro Tip: Use a new wallet to avoid accidentally resetting another Galxe ID.
Scenario C: All Else Fails
Submit an unbinding request via the Galxe Support Form, selecting “Unbind Social Media Account Request.” Processing takes up to 14 business days — avoid resubmitting.
My Galxe ID Was Reset — How Do I Recover It?
If your loyalty points and linked accounts disappeared, you likely logged into a new Galxe ID instead of your original one.
Common Causes
- Logging in with an unlinked wallet or social account.
- Adding an old wallet to a newly created Galxe ID.
- Accidentally creating duplicate accounts during migration.
Recovery Strategy
- Recall which wallets or socials were linked to your original account.
- Log in using one of those verified methods (e.g., Discord, Twitter).
- Verify that your loyalty points are present.
- Reconnect your wallets and socials carefully.
Real-World Example
You log in via a new Aptos wallet → new Galxe ID created → you add your old EVM wallet → it detaches from the original Galxe ID → logging in via EVM now takes you to the new empty account.
Solution: Log in via Discord (still linked to original), then reattach your EVM and Aptos wallets correctly.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Is my Galxe ID the same as my wallet address?
No. Your Galxe ID is a unique identifier behind the scenes. Your wallet is just one method to log in and verify identity.
Q: Can I have multiple Galxe IDs?
Technically yes — but only one should hold your main progress. Creating multiple IDs can fragment your credentials and risk losing points.
Q: What happens if I delete my primary wallet?
You can only delete the primary wallet after removing all secondary ones. After deletion, you can assign a new primary — but always log in via social/email first to avoid creating a new ID.
Q: Do loyalty points expire?
No — but they’re tied to your Galxe ID, not your wallet. Losing access to your ID means losing access to those points.
Q: Can I link wallets from different apps?
For EVM wallets: only if they’re within the same app (e.g., MetaMask). For cross-app linking, import the external address into your main wallet first.
Q: How do I protect my Galxe ID from being hijacked?
Secure all login methods — especially email and social accounts. A breach in any of them can grant access to your entire Galxe profile.
Final Thoughts
Galxe ID is more than just a login system — it’s your evolving web3 resume. By mastering how to manage wallets and social connections, you ensure that every contribution counts toward your long-term reputation and rewards.
Stay vigilant about how you log in, use new wallets cautiously during recovery, and always verify which Galxe ID you’re currently using before making changes.
With proper care, your digital identity stays secure, unified, and ready for the next generation of decentralized opportunities.
