There are multiple hooks provided in CosmosKit. They all require ChainProvider from either @cosmos-kit/react or @cosmos-kit/react-lite to provide necessary information.

• useChain: Provide chainWallet related properties and methods, and support multiple chains connected at one time. When useChain is called, corresponding chainWallets will be activated.

• useChainWallet: Provide chainWallet related properties and methods, and support multiple chains and wallets connected at one time. When useChainWallet is called, corresponding chainWallet will be activated.

Differences Between useChain And useChainWallet

1. useChainWallet requires an extra parameter walletName.
2. useChain will pop up a wallet modal to connect while useChainWallet not.
3. useChain exposes extra openView and closeView methods and walletRepo property.
4. the return value of methods getRpcEndpoint, getRestEndpoint, getStargateClient, getCosmWasmClient, getNameService can be different between useChain and useChainWallet, because useChain explores all chainWallets related to the parameter chainName.
