Trust Wallet — Your Self-Custody Gateway to Web3

Trust Wallet is a mobile-first, non-custodial cryptocurrency wallet that gives you complete ownership of your private keys while offering an intuitive bridge into DeFi, NFTs, and Web3 apps. It supports hundreds of blockchains and tokens, an on-device dApp browser, in-wallet swaps, fiat on-ramps, and staking — all inside one lightweight, privacy-minded app. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}

Why choose Trust Wallet?

First and foremost: control. Trust Wallet is self-custody — your seed phrase and keys remain with you, not a third party. This means only you can sign transactions and move funds. The app is designed so newcomers can get started quickly while providing power-user features like custom tokens, RPC endpoints, and extension support for desktop browsers. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

Key features at a glance

• Multi-chain support — Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB Chain, Solana, Polygon and many more networks are available so you can manage diverse holdings in one place. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

• DApp browser — interact directly with decentralized exchanges, NFT marketplaces, and games without leaving the wallet.

• Built-in buy/sell on-ramps — purchase crypto using local fiat methods (cards, Apple/Google Pay, bank transfers) in supported regions. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}

• Staking & Earn — stake supported proof-of-stake assets from inside the app to earn rewards and use tools like Stablecoin Earn to generate yields. Availability and APRs vary by asset and region. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}

• NFTs & collectibles — view, send, and receive NFTs across supported chains; metadata and gallery views make management simple.

Security & privacy

Security centers on the seed phrase: Trust Wallet never stores your private keys on its servers, meaning backup and safe seed-phrase storage are your responsibility. The wallet includes in-app safety reminders and tools (like a security scanner and encrypted cloud backup options) to reduce user error and scam risk — but always keep your seed phrase offline and private. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}

Tips for safe use

• Always verify you are on the official domain (trustwallet.com) before downloading. • Never share your recovery phrase — no legitimate service will ask for it. • Use hardware wallets for large holdings when possible (Trust Wallet supports integrations and imports). • Double-check recipient addresses before sending; copy/paste or QR scans are safest when done carefully.
