EXODUS® Web3 Wallet | Getting Started With Exódus®
What is Exodus Web3 Wallet?
The Exodus Web3 Wallet is a non-custodial cryptocurrency wallet and browser extension designed to seamlessly interact with the decentralized web (Web3). It acts as your personal key to manage digital assets, access decentralized applications (dApps), swap tokens, and explore blockchain ecosystems—all from a secure, user-friendly interface.
Unlike centralized exchanges, Exodus gives you complete control. You hold your private keys, meaning you truly own your crypto. The wallet extension integrates directly with your browser, allowing one-click connections to dApps for gaming, DeFi, NFTs, and more on networks like Ethereum, Solana, and Polygon.
Core Features:
- Secure & Non-Custodial: Private keys are encrypted on your device. Only you have access.
- Multi-Chain Support: Manage thousands of assets across multiple blockchains in one place.
- Built-In Swap: Exchange cryptocurrencies directly within the wallet via partnered exchanges.
- dApp Browser: Connect to any supported decentralized application effortlessly.
- Staking: Earn rewards by staking supported assets directly from the wallet.
- 24/7 Support: Access live, human customer support from the Exodus team.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q1: Is my crypto safe with Exodus?
Exodus employs strong client-side encryption. However, as a non-custodial wallet, your security is also your responsibility. Safeguard your 12-word secret recovery phrase—anyone with it can access your funds. Exodus never has access to your phrase or private keys.
Q2: Can I buy crypto directly in the wallet?
Yes, through Exodus's partnership with third-party providers (like Ramp and Banxa), you can buy crypto with a card or bank transfer, subject to fees and provider availability in your region.
Q3: What happens if I lose my secret recovery phrase?
Exodus cannot recover it. Losing your phrase means permanently losing access to your wallet and funds. Write it down, store it offline in multiple secure places, and never share it.
Q4: Are there fees for using the wallet?
Exodus itself does not charge transaction fees. However, sending assets or swapping incurs standard network (gas) fees paid to miners/validators, and swap services include a spread. Fees are always displayed before confirmation.
Q5: Can I use the Web3 Wallet on mobile?
Yes, the Exodus mobile app (iOS/Android) offers a similar feature set. The browser extension is specifically for desktop Web3 interaction.
Q6: What if I encounter a suspicious dApp or transaction?
Always verify the dApp's URL and reputation. Exodus cannot reverse blockchain transactions. Use the wallet's security settings to view and reject connection requests.
