1.5.4
Hexncoin was built on Solana and stays at home there. It is no longer only there. The shell now carries a network of its own, Solana, Ethereum and Base, and every surface that shows an address, a balance or a price follows whichever one you have selected. This is the first step of a multichain expansion rather than the whole of it: Ethereum is the beginning, and more networks and integrations follow. Alongside it, the desktop becomes something you arrange, the phone home screen gains pages, and the widgets are rebuilt as flat instruments.

Highlights
- 01
Beyond Solana, one shell and three networks
A network selector now lives in the menu bar and in the mobile island: Solana, Ethereum and Base. Solana works out its own address and needs no wallet-side switch. Ethereum and Base share one address and are told apart only by the chain the wallet is on, so selecting one actually asks your wallet to switch, and if you decline, the shell says so rather than pretending it landed.
- 02
The wallet follows the network on mobile too
The Dynamic Island's wallet panel is now the phone's counterpart to the desktop wallet menu: pick a network, read the balance and address for that chain, open it on the matching explorer. When the wallet sits on a different chain than the selection, no balance is shown at all, because a mainnet figure under a Base heading would be worse than no figure.
- 03
A desktop you arrange
Right-clicking the wallpaper opens a full desktop menu. Create folders and files where you clicked, put any installed app on the desktop as a shortcut, drag icons into folders, and set sort order, icon size, grid snapping and labels. Selections drag together, rubber-band selection works, and the arrangement is kept.
- 04
Home screen pages
The phone home screen holds 24 apps to a page and spills the rest onto the next, the way a phone always has. Swipe between pages from anywhere, tap the dots, or hold a dragged icon against either edge to carry it across.
- 05
Widgets rebuilt as instruments
The widget frame drops the translucency, the gradient surface, the sheen and the stacked shadows for a single opaque plane with a hairline edge. Charts keep the colour that carries meaning; what surrounds them stops competing with it.
Everything in this release
New8
- Multichain support, starting with Ethereum. Solana, Ethereum and Base are selectable across the whole shell, and the selection is remembered between sessions.
- A network selector in the desktop menu bar and in the mobile Dynamic Island. Both read one shared selection, so the phone and the desktop can never disagree about which chain you are pointed at.
- The wallet's own chain is what counts, not the app's intent. A switch made inside Phantom moves the shell with it, and a switch you decline is reported as a mismatch with a way to retry rather than being silently assumed.
- The mobile wallet panel gains the selected network's address, its native balance, a link to that chain's explorer, and a warning when the chains do not match. The status bar quotes the selected network's asset, and the collapsed island carries its mark.
- A desktop context menu: new folder, new file, add any installed app to the desktop, sort by name, kind or date, icon size, snap to grid, keep arranged, show item names, clean up and select all.
- App shortcuts on the desktop. Any installed app can be placed on the wallpaper, launches with a double-click, and is removed without uninstalling the app.
- Desktop icons can be dragged into a folder. The folder highlights as the drop target, and a whole multi-selection files at once.
- The mobile home screen is paged. Swipe from anywhere including an icon, tap the page dots, or hold a dragged icon at either edge to move it to the neighbouring page.
Improved3
- Widgets are redesigned as flat, opaque panels, with no blur, gradient, sheen or layered shadow. Chart colour, which carries data, is untouched.
- The shading between a background chart and the text over it is now one even value rather than a fade, so every label sits at the same contrast instead of a different one per position.
- Hexncoin's positioning no longer describes itself as a Solana operating system. It is a DeFi operating system, one ecosystem for every task, that began on Solana and is expanding outward.
Fixed4
- Right-clicking the desktop did nothing, because the icons sat over the wallpaper and took the click before the menu could open.
- Desktop icons could not be dragged at all. Every movement was discarded before it reached the icon.
- A newly created folder or file could land underneath an icon already placed by hand. New items now skip occupied slots.
- The installed app reported an older version than the one actually running.
