New in 0.11.0: circuit identities, tipping, and New sites.

  • Browser identity: sign in with a TapeBrowser circuit (BSC processor 1196 or X Layer processor 281). Each circuit is one identity, and its assets live in the circuit's container. Click the BEM button in the toolbar to pick one. When signed in, the toolbar shows a person icon, the chain and the identity, plus the BEM in its container. You're signed out automatically if the circuit moves or you switch wallets.
  • Tipping: from the site info panel, tip BEM from your identity's container to the site's container. It works only between the same chain, and you can't tip yourself. The container contract charges a small fee (BSC 0.0002 BNB, X Layer 0.0013 OKB), which is shown in the confirm dialog. Every tip is simulated on chain first, so you won't be asked to sign a transaction that would fail. Tips are public on chain.
  • New sites: a new panel on the new tab page lists sites whose home page was first published in the last 7 days, ordered by on-chain publish time.
  • Wider new tab page, and the short chain name is now BSC instead of BNB.
  • If an identity's container isn't opened yet, a link opens tapeout.net in a TapeBrowser tab so you can open it there.
