Manage strategy wallets

The Wallets page manages your strategy wallets: create them, back them up, fund them, see their balances and orders, link them to strategies, and empty them. For what a strategy wallet is and where its key lives, read Wallets in Surge first.

The wallet list

Each wallet card shows its label, address, ADA and token balances (refreshed about every minute, and only accepted as "zero" after two consecutive empty readings so a blip never shows a drained wallet), connection status (Connected / Not connected / Not backed up), the linked strategy if any, and actions. A capacity bar shows how many of the 20 wallet slots are used. A dismissible "how wallets work" explainer sits at the top.

Wallet actions

Action
What it does

Generate

Creates 1 or more new wallets (count preset or slider), with a label and optional immediate strategy assignment. Asks you to choose a folder for key files first

Import

Drag-and-drop a CSV/JSON export (contains private keys) to add wallets from another device

Export / Back up all

Downloads every wallet's key. Store safely

Back up (per wallet)

Registers the wallet with Surge (proof of ownership by signature) [VERIFY: whether this also downloads the key file, or whether "Download key file" is a separate action]

Fund

Sends ADA and optionally one token from your browser wallet into this wallet; browser wallet signs

Send

Builds a transfer out of this wallet to any address; strategy wallet signs after the transaction guard

Receive

Address and QR code

Sweep

Opens Surge's separate sweep tool in a new tab; you carry the key file across yourself

Rename

Label, up to 64 characters

Activate / Deactivate

Hide from builders and the swap page without deleting

Delete

Removes the wallet from Surge and this browser. Empty it first

Refresh balances

Forces a re-read

Wallet details

Click a wallet for: the token table with values, an estimate of the minimum ADA the wallet must keep to hold its tokens, on-chain transaction history (paginated), the linked strategy resolved from every strategy type, and additional actions: link / unlink strategy, reconnect from key file, export keys, and Recover stuck order for any order from this wallet that is still open at a DEX (see Cancelling stuck orders).

The Send form warns when the amount would leave less ADA than the wallet's tokens require, and refuses amounts that overshoot the balance.

Funding tips

  • Fund with at least the builder's Required balance plus a few ADA. Grid needs roughly 10–12 ADA of spare ADA at all times to keep going.

  • A funding transfer takes a minute or two to land; a confetti banner confirms it once the balance rises.

  • Tokens whose decimals are unknown to Surge cannot be amount-entered in the Fund form until the registry knows them.

Sweep funds

The dashboard's sweep-profits dialog is not functional in the current build. To move funds out of a strategy wallet use Send or Sweep here.
