🔌Third Party Wallets

Here we'll briefly discuss how wallets are evolving on Cardano.

This guide is not associated directly or indirectly with the developers of any of the wallets listed herein.

Compatibility

Most wallets listed here are compatible with mnemonic phrases from other wallets (please see Installing a wallet app). This means that one could import a Yoroi or Daedalus wallet into any of them.

Web3

You can experience Web3 through the use of some of these wallets. As web-browser extensions some wallets allow users to connect to Cardano Decentralised Applications (dApps) such as Decentralised Exchanges (DEXs) and token distribution platforms. In some cases, the wallets provide dApp browsers which include popular Cardano dApps.

NFT collections

Some of these wallets provide the user with intuitive interfaces to visualise and list native assets, including Fungible Tokens (FTs) and Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs).

Metadata

Some of these wallets allow users to easily include metadata in transactions. This is increasingly useful, to include messages in your transaction and for governance purposes.

All wallets provide varying User Experiences (UXs). Please read the official documentation carefully and choose based on your level of comfort around new software.
