Safe Wallet Support in Enscribe

We’re excited to announce that Safe smart account wallet support is now live in Enscribe. Whilst Enscribe already has support for commonly used wallets like Metamask and Coinbase, Safe was not fully compatible..

This update enables deploying a new contract and setting an ENS name for it or naming an existing contract with your Safe wallet with full control over transaction approval and execution.

Why Safe Wallet?​

Safe is commonly used as a multi-signature wallet in the Ethereum ecosystem. A Safe wallet account can have multiple Ethereum accounts configured as signers behind it. When a transaction is to be approved and executed, all signers must sign & execute that transaction.

This process can happen asynchronously without waiting for approvals from all the signers. This is unlike executing transactions with a wallet like Metamask where every transaction request will block until it is either approved or rejected.

It’s ideal for workflows where transparency and decentralized control are required.

What You Can Do with Safe in Enscribe​

Enscribe now enables you to:

  • Deploy new contracts with ENS names set using your Safe wallet.
  • Name existing contracts with ENS names from your Safe address.

Supporting Safe required a different approach from the typical MetaMask-style interactions, where each transaction prompts a popup that demands immediate attention. With Safe, Enscribe queues transactions, so they can be approved via the Safe App.

How to Connect to Safe Wallet in Enscribe​

Connecting to a Safe wallet is slightly different from connecting to Metamask or Coinbaser wallet. To connect to your Safe wallet, click on the Connect button on the top right corner on Enscribe:

On the Connect a Wallet popup, select WalletConnect

wallet_connect

Now click on the OPEN button to open the WalletConnect modal

wallet_connect_popup

Click on Copy link and go to your Safe wallet app. Click on the WalletConnect icon on the top bar

safe_wallet_bar

Now paste the copied link in the Pairing code field in the popup

safe_wallet_pairing

You should now see Enscribe as connected app

safe_wallet_app_connect

Once connected, you’ll see your Safe wallet account shown as connected in Enscribe as well as in the Safe App.

Kicking off Transactions​

With Safe wallet, our naming-related transactions are sent to the Safe wallet queue without waiting for them to complete. This is because Safe wallet intercepts our Enscribe transactions & executes them in its own multisig transactions. Therefore, Enscribe doesn’t have knowledge of these transactions whilst pending.

txns_submitted

Enscribe differentiates between a Safe wallet and a wallet like Metamask and will modify the behavior of waiting for transactions to complete accordingly. This is how pending transactions look like in the Safe wallet:

txns_que

On executing the above pending transaction to set the primary name of a contract, we can see the contract details in Enscribe:

name_success

We can also rename the contract we just deployed. Let’s say we rename it to safewallet13.testapp.eth. Like before, two transactions - setting forward resolution and setting reverse resolution - will be kicked off in the Safe wallet app:

rename_txns

And we see two transactions in the Safe wallet app that we can bulk execute:

safe_rename_txns

We see our contract now has a new name:

rename_success

Having full support for Safe ensures that teams protecting key contracts with a multisig can properly name their contracts with Enscribe.

If you have Safe controlled contracts you wish to name, you can try naming your contracts with Safe wallet at app.enscribe.xyz!

Happy naming! 🚀
