Check the wallet’s supported networks and recovery method before sending funds. Never share a private key or recovery phrase.
Choosing a crypto wallet
A wallet stores the keys that control your coins. Self-custody wallets give you the keys, usually as a recovery phrase of 12 or 24 words; custodial wallets keep the keys for you, like a bank account.
This profile lists the platforms the wallet runs on, the coins it supports and the features it offers. Where shown, the security, privacy and ease-of-use dots are a quick summary of the wallet’s design, not an independent audit.

Write your recovery phrase on paper and keep it offline. Anyone with it can take your coins.
For larger amounts, consider a hardware wallet that keeps keys off your phone or computer.
Make sure the wallet supports the network you will use, not just the coin name.
