Key benefits  

Your Binance Web3 Wallet can be your “entry ticket” to access endless opportunities of Web3 and enjoy a wide variety of benefits, including: 

Simplicity

Creating your Binance Web3 Wallet takes just several seconds using the Binance application. If compared with other crypto wallets, the Binance wallet is easier to use, and there is no seed phrase (a sequence of 12 or 24 random words that store the data required for recovering the crypto wallet). 

Convenience

You can seamlessly move your funds between the Binance Exchange account and your Web3 Wallet, and swap tokens easily across different blockchain networks while enjoying the best prices and rates. 

Delve into diverse decentralized applications, explore NFTs, and generate yields on your digital assets with several clicks without exiting your Binance wallet. 

Enhanced security

The Binance Web3 Wallet provides advanced security features, such as:

a)Identifying potentially malicious smart contracts.

b)Offering wrong address protection.

So, when you initiate a transaction, you will get a notification in case a token or blockchain poses any security-related risks. Furthermore, the wallet uses MPC technology (Multy-Party Computation) to minimize single-point failure and ensure that your digital assets are safe. 

This means users don’t have to store their private keys in a single location. With the MPC technology, “3 key-shares” are created which are stored in separate locations: in your Web3 Wallet, your device, as well as your cloud storage. These “key-shares” have a recovery password and you are the only one to know it. 

High-quality customer support 

You can rely on 24/7 customer support service striving to make your Web3 experience efficient, smooth, and seamless.

Swapping tokens at great prices

Your Binance Web3 Wallet is integrated with Binance Bridge allowing you to transfer your digital assets across various chains and have access to different decentralized exchange services. In this way, you can swap tokens across various chains at the best prices and you don’t have to compromise on value. 

Possibility to earn

With your Web3 wallet, you can access different avenues to earn yields on your holdings. You can do it by staking, lending, or using other financial instruments. 

Self-custody

You can have complete control over your digital assets, as your Web3 Wallet is encrypted by 3 “key shares” and a recovery password that is only known to you. 

A curated selection of decentralized applications

Use your Binance Web3 Wallet to benefit from many reputable and innovative decentralized applications. Minimize the risk of using malicious dApps and access the best of what Web3 world has to offer you. 

Harmonizing Centralized finance (CeFi) and Decentralized finance (DeFi)

CeFi and DeFi have their respective advantages, and your Binance Web3 Wallet has succeeded in bridging the gap by allowing you to toggle between CeFi and DeFi. Thus, the best of these two worlds is combined under one roof.
