One of my biggest highlights from Week 1 of 100 Days of Solana was realizing how the same keypair model appeared across very different wallet experiences.

I generated a keypair, connected Phantom in a browser app, compared CLI, browser, and mobile wallets, and explored how they behaved on devnet. The screenshot below shows one of the moments that stood out most to me: connecting a browser wallet and seeing the address and balance appear inside the app.

What surprised me most was how much the UX could change while the core identity model stayed the same. That was the point where wallets stopped feeling like “accounts” and started making more sense as tools for managing keys.

Next, I’m looking forward to learning how to read more on-chain data and understand what is happening underneath the wallet interface.
