Accounts | Miden Docs

📄️ What are Accounts?

Accounts are the primary actors in Miden — they store code, state, and assets, and execute transactions locally with private state.

Define Miden account components using the #[component] macro — storage, methods, and auto-generated bindings.

Persistent state management with Value slots and StorageMaps in Miden smart contracts.

Export custom structs and enums for use in public component methods with #[export_type].

Query account state with active_account and mutate the vault with native_account.

RPO-Falcon512 signature verification and hashing primitives in Miden contracts.

Authentication component pattern and nonce management for Miden accounts.
