About Cake Wallet

Cake Wallet allows you to safely store, exchange, and spend your Monero, Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum and more. Cake Wallet is focused on an excellent transaction experience.

Shared Values of Cake Wallet and THORChain

THORChain is a decentralized exchange designed around the principles of self-custody. Swappers custody their own funds in the wallets where they control their own keys until the moment they swap. Cake Wallet aligns strongly in the values of self-custody, giving users control over their assets. THORChain’s strong stance on economic security and the values of crypto make it the perfect venue for Cake Wallet users to make their swaps. Unlike other swap providers, THORChain is not controlled by a centralized entity and swaps cannot be censored, nor can the protocol collect exogenous off-chain information about swappers.
