Para provides a simple React hook to query the native balance of a wallet. This is useful for checking available funds before performing transactions.

Important Notes

  • EVM only: Currently only supports EVM wallets. Returns null for COSMOS, SOLANA, and STELLAR wallets
  • Native balance only: Does not support token balances
  • Wei format: Returns balance as a string in wei (smallest unit)
  • No formatting: Returns raw balance value without formatting or symbol information

Next Steps

Work directly with popular blockchain libraries for a more comprehensive approach to wallet interactions.
