useBalanceForAddress

This hook is similar to the useBalance hook, however it takes in a mandatory walletAddress parameter. This hook only fetches the native token balance of the given address and does not work with ERC20 tokens. If you want to get the ERC20 balance from a given wallet, use useTokenBalance

import { useBalanceForAddress } from "@thirdweb-dev/react";

Usage​

Provide the wallet address as the argument.

import { useBalanceForAddress } from "@thirdweb-dev/react";

// The EVM wallet address that you want to fetch info from
const walletAddress = "{{wallet_address}}";

function App() {
  const { data, isLoading } = useBalanceForAddress(walletAddress);
}

Return Value​

The hook's data property, once loaded, contains the following properties:

{
  symbol: string;
  value: BigNumber;
  name: string;
  decimals: number;
  displayValue: string;
} | undefined>;
