Exodus is a non-custodial cryptocurrency wallet supporting a wide range of Digital Assets. The interface is easy to navigate allowing you to use your wallet right away for purchasing or receiving cryptocurrency from another platform, making it ideal for beginners and those new to the Crypto space.
The platform is downloaded from the official website and locally secured on your device. Instead of an email and password, your 12-word secret recovery phrase is what identifies your wallet and funds. The platform presents a real-time portfolio valuation and tracks the value of assets held. There’s a saying in crypto “Not your keys, not your coins,”. Your Exodus wallet contains all your keys and coins.
Supported Cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Bitcoin Cash, EOS, Litecoin, Stellar, Tron, Cardano, IOTA & 200+ more.
