Welcome to a vibrant, single-file presentation that walks through the essentials of the Exodus® Web3 Wallet and the Exodus® Browser Extension. Use this page as an at-a-glance explainer, a quick onboarding companion, and a visually rich reference for confident self-custody in the world of DeFi, NFTs, and multi-chain crypto management.
Exodus® focuses on beautiful design and approachable security. For newcomers, it removes friction with human-friendly UX. For veterans, it brings multi-chain power, in-wallet swaps and staking, and a thriving Web3 dApp experience. Pairing the desktop or mobile wallet with the Exodus Browser Extension lets you approve transactions with clarity, connect to dApps, and sign messages on supported networks without giving up control of your private keys.
Your keys, your crypto. Exodus® emphasizes seed phrase ownership while offering optional security add-ons like passcodes and hardware wallet connection. The philosophy is simple: you stay in control of funds and permissions.
From major Layer‑1s to EVM chains, Exodus® curates a broad asset list, gives you readable addresses, and exposes network fees and nonce details without overwhelming the interface.
The Exodus® Browser Extension bridges your wallet to Web3 experiences—DeFi protocols, NFT marketplaces, and games—surfacing transaction previews so you can verify what you sign.
When a dApp requests a transaction, the extension displays a detailed preview: the to address, value, network fee, and method data. Review each field and confirm only when it matches your intent. If anything looks off, reject the request and cross-check the dApp URL.
Message signatures prove ownership of your address without moving funds. Read the message carefully—it may grant permissions such as token allowances. Revoke or limit approvals regularly with on-chain tools.
Track balances, price moves, and historical performance with clear charts. Hints and alerts help you understand volatility without jargon.
Pin frequently used networks to reduce chain-switching friction.
Perform in-wallet swaps or bridge assets where supported. Always check the quoted rate and network congestion. If you need fast settlement, prioritize speed over minimal fees.
Run a small test swap to confirm routing behaves as expected when markets are volatile.
Stake eligible assets directly in the wallet. Review validator APR, lock-ups, and unbonding windows. With self-custody, rewards track to your address rather than a centralized custodian.
Understand the risks: slashing on some networks, variable yields, and protocol-specific mechanics.
View NFTs, inspect metadata, and organize collections. For safety, keep high-value items in a dedicated address and limit approvals to trusted marketplaces.
Use read-only public addresses on shared or presentation devices; sign from a private machine.
Your 12-word secret phrase is the master key. Store offline in at least two secure locations. Consider a metal backup to protect against fire or water damage.
Do not paste the phrase into websites, extensions, or cloud notes. Exodus® support will never ask for it.
For an extra layer, connect a hardware wallet (when supported) and let the device sign transactions while Exodus® manages the interface.
Combine strong OS hygiene, distinct browser profiles, and phishing-resistant habits for the best results.
Exodus® Web3 Wallet delivers a refined self-custody experience for multi-chain assets and Web3 activity. The Exodus® Browser Extension connects you to dApps with readable approvals and message signing, so you can navigate DeFi, staking, swaps, and NFTs with confidence. Keep your recovery phrase offline, verify official domains, start with small transactions, and review allowances regularly. With these habits—and this colorful guide—you have everything needed to explore Web3 securely and enjoyably.
