Taking your first steps into web3 can be overwhelming, with a plethora of wallet choices at your fingertips. In our “Wallet of the Week” series, we put the spotlight on one wallet and share why we think they’re worth checking out.

Three reasons why we’re hitting the block with Blockchain.com

Blockchain.com is a true OG in crypto — so much so that their Twitter handle is the highly-coveted @blockchain! Historically the first Bitcoin wallet worldwide, it has evolved since its founding in 2011 to become a crypto “super app” with a growing multi-chain focus.

Go deep into chains: With support for Bitcoin and EVM chains, Blockchain.com offers both a custodial wallet and a non-custodial wallet called the DeFi Wallet. With the custodial wallet, you can buy, sell, earn, and trade as you wish. With the DeFi Wallet, you can hold, send, receive, and store your coins as well as connect to dapps across web3.

Surf the explorer: Blockchain.com has its very own blockchain explorer, which lets you browse prices, transactions, and much more with colorful tickers and handy charts.

Level up your game: Blockchain.com is a universe in itself, with all the resources and content that the crypto-curious could ask for. Not only do they have a learning portal for beginners to brush up on their knowledge, but they even run a podcast that has featured some of the biggest names in web3 and beyond.

What’s next?

More chains — many more chains!

Blockchain.com is also continuously expanding the DeFi Wallet to enable users to unlock the possibilities of web3 from just within one app. They’re now working on a DEX aggregator to let users swap tokens cross-chain as well as an NFT feature — join the waitlist here!
