The useParaEthersSigner hook returns an ethers.js AbstractSigner for the user’s EVM wallet. It supports both embedded Para wallets and external wallets. If the user has multiple EVM wallets, pass address or walletId to select one. When omitted, the active wallet is used automatically.
Requires @getpara/ethers-v6-integration as a peer dependency.
Use the companion mutation hooks for common operations: useParaEthersSignMessage and useParaEthersSendTransaction.
