Create a Wallet and Derive Addresses
A wallet groups the addresses you hand out to users for deposits. This guide creates one wallet, then derives fresh addresses per chain so each user gets a unique deposit target. Keys stay under your control unless you opt into custodial signing.
- An API key with C2 access (create the key in the dashboard).
- A decision on where signing happens — non-custodial by default, custodial signing is a separate opt-in.
1Create the wallet
POST an empty body to /v1/wallets. The response returns the wallet id you use to derive addresses.
curl -X POST https://api.1st-node.com/v1/wallets \
-H "Authorization: Bearer sk_live_..."
> {"id":"wlt_9f3a","created_at":"2026-07-04T10:00:00Z"}2Derive an address per chain
Call the derive endpoint with the target chain. Repeat per user so each deposit maps to one address; addresses are watched for you.
curl -X POST https://api.1st-node.com/v1/wallets/wlt_9f3a/addresses \
-H "Authorization: Bearer sk_live_..." \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"chain":"tron"}'
> {"address":"TQ1n7...","chain":"tron","index":0}3Attach a reference and store the mapping
Persist the returned address against your user id. Derive on eth and btc the same way; each chain has an independent index space.
curl -X POST https://api.1st-node.com/v1/wallets/wlt_9f3a/addresses \
-H "Authorization: Bearer sk_live_..." \
-d '{"chain":"eth"}'
> {"address":"0x8f2c...","chain":"eth","index":0}常见问题
Do you hold my private keys?
No. Wallet and address creation is non-custodial by default — you decide where signing happens. Custodial signing is a separate opt-in primitive.
Are derived addresses watched automatically?
Yes. Derived addresses are registered for deposit detection, so incoming transfers appear via GET /v1/deposits or your webhook.
