Shadow ® Exchange — Guide, Login & Troubleshooting

What is Shadow ® Exchange?

Shadow ® Exchange is a concentrated-liquidity decentralized exchange (DEX) built natively on the Sonic network. It focuses on capital-efficient liquidity, dynamic fees and novel incentive models (x(3,3) / xSHADOW governance) to improve trading depth and rewards for long-term participants. For core docs and the app, use the official site and documentation pages. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}

How to access / "login"

Shadow ® does not use email/password login in the traditional sense. Access the platform via the official web app (open the Shadow ® URL directly) and connect your wallet (MetaMask, WalletConnect, Ledger and other compatible wallets). Always verify the domain before connecting to avoid phishing. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

Troubleshooting: common login & connection issues

Quick checklist: confirm official URL, update wallet extension/firmware, ensure sufficient chain-native gas for transactions, disable interfering browser extensions, and try a different browser or private window.

Shadow ® Login not working / Unable to connect wallet

If connect fails, first disconnect and reconnect your wallet extension, ensure the wallet is unlocked, and for hardware wallets open the correct chain app on the device. If using WalletConnect, scan the QR with a fresh session. If problems persist, check the status page or docs for network outages. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}

Shadow ® Account recovery & 2FA reset

Shadow ® is non-custodial — account recovery depends on your wallet's seed phrase / keystore. If you used a third-party account service with 2FA, follow that service’s recovery flow. Shadow ® support will never ask for your seed phrase; report phishing immediately. For direct support options see the official support channels. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}

Error connecting / App not working

Common causes: RPC or network mismatch, low native gas, or browser extension conflicts. Try switching RPC, increasing gas, or connecting through a different wallet (e.g., WalletConnect). If you suspect a platform outage, check Shadow ®'s docs or official social channels for updates. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}

FAQs

1. How do I "log in" to Shadow ®?: Connect a compatible wallet on the official app — there is no email/password sign-in for on-chain accounts.
2. My wallet won't connect — what now?: Unlock the wallet, check chain/RPC settings, ensure enough native gas, disable conflicting extensions, or try WalletConnect or a different browser. See docs for hardware wallet specifics. :contentReference[oaicite:10]{index=10}
3. I lost access to my 2FA — can Shadow ® help recover my account?: Shadow ® cannot recover your wallet seed. Use your wallet seed phrase to restore access. For third-party 2FA services, follow their recovery procedures and contact Shadow ® support only via official channels if identity verification is needed. :contentReference[oaicite:11]{index=11}
4. Why did my swap fail?: Failures are often caused by insufficient gas, slippage settings, or network congestion. Review the pending transaction in your wallet and consult the troubleshooting docs. :contentReference[oaicite:12]{index=12}
5. Where can I report bugs or phishing?: Report via the official Help Center, GitHub issues (for code), or the project's verified social channels — never share your seed phrase. :contentReference[oaicite:13]{index=13}

Conclusion

Shadow ® Exchange combines concentrated liquidity with dynamic incentives to offer efficient on-chain trading on Sonic. For safe usage: always verify official domains, keep your seed phrase offline, update wallet firmware, and use the official docs and Help Center for recovery and troubleshooting.
