Create a Sidepit ID

Connect a Native SegWit UniSat address as your Sidepit ID.

A Sidepit ID is a Bitcoin address you control. The current web flow requires a UniSat Native SegWit mainnet address beginning bc1q.

1. Request access

Open app.sidepit.com in a desktop Chrome-compatible browser. ProofNet access remains beta-code gated. Use the access flow provided by Sidepit; do not accept a code or wallet link from an unverified message.

2. Install UniSat

Install the official UniSat Wallet Chrome extension. Confirm the publisher and URL before installing.

UniSat download page
Install UniSat only from its official distribution page.

3. Select Native SegWit

Create or import a wallet in UniSat, then select a Native SegWit address type. The address must begin bc1q.

The connected bc1q address becomes the Sidepit ID.

If UniSat creates seed words, back them up privately. Do not photograph, paste, upload, or show them to an AI agent. Sidepit support does not need them.

4. Connect the wallet

Choose Connect Wallet in the Sidepit app and approve the connection in UniSat. Confirm that the connected full bc1q address is the address you intend to use.

That address is now your public Sidepit ID. Recording the full public address is safe. Recording or sharing the private key, WIF, or seed words is not.

Recovery

If you lose the browser extension but retain the seed backup, restore it privately in a compatible wallet and confirm that it reproduces the exact same full bc1q Sidepit ID before signing anything.

If you lose every valid copy of the account key and its recovery seed, there is no documented alternate signature path for unlocks, agent authorization, or revocation. Sidepit cannot redirect an unlock to another address. Contact support with public identifiers only, but never provide a seed or private key.
