FAQs about Brave Wallet
-
Security: Most crypto wallets are browser extensions. These extensions have inherent security risks, and are much more susceptible to account spoofing and asset theft. Extensions also require extra CPU to run, creating performance issues on your device. Brave Wallet, by contrast, is browser native. With Brave Wallet, there’s much less risk of account spoofing, phishing, and other scams. It requires less CPU to operate, and is overall much more performant and reliable.
Multi-chain: Brave Wallet users can buy, receive, and send crypto assets across multiple chains, including Ethereum, EVM compatible chains, and Solana. You can also connect other self-custody or hardware wallets, see live market data, and manage your portfolio all in one place. Holders of Ethereum, Polygon, Binance Smart Chain, Avalanche, Celo, and Optimism can also swap assets and leverage Web3 DApps (coming soon for Solana holders).
