Decided to make a small review of the mobile wallet for iOS and Android - Trust Wallet, because I hear more and more recently that MEW (MyEtherWallet) is not convenient and not reliable, especially for beginners. That is why I decided to tell you about a good alternative for storing and exchanging Ethereum, Ethereum Classic and tokens ERC20, ERC223, ERC721.
At the end of July 2018 Trust Wallet began cooperation with the cryptocurrency exchange Binance. That's where I found out about him.
You can download it on the official website
trustwalletapp.com or in the AppStore and Google Play.
Next, download and install. Looking ahead, briefly about the benefits of the wallet:
1. The wallet is very convenient and understandable. Even grandma will deal with him;
2. Encryption keys are stored on the device and are not transmitted to the server. That is, they cannot be intercepted. You can lose tokens only if you have lost your phone and have not set the access code to your wallet. If you have set the passcode and saved the passphrase, you will be able to recover the wallet;
3. Anonymous;
4. Supported format ERC20, ERC223, ERC721;
5. There is a current token rate in the selected currency;
6. The web3 browser allows you to work directly from your wallet with various decentralized applications (DApps).
After installation, you can create a new wallet or import an existing one. You can import using a passphrase, a JSON Keystore, and a private key.
After creating or importing a wallet, you go to the main page of the application. There's only Ethereum. To add tokens, click the plus button in the upper right corner and select tokens.
Choose "Enable" or "disable" the tokens you need. If there are no tokens that you need, go to search.
Start typing the Ticker symbol (3-4 characters, such as ETH). Choose the ones you need. If you have not found the necessary token, then add it by clicking "add" next to the search button.
Enter the required data and add the token. If you do not know where to get the token data, go to the website
etherscan.io. Enter the name of the token, there is all the necessary information.
After returning to the main page of the application, you can receive or send Ethereum.
In the upper right corner, you can see the current rate of Ethereum or token.
On the main page, select the desired token, choose to receive or send.
In the DApps tab, using the web3 browser, you can go to the website of any decentralized application from the proposed and can use the wallet.
And the last tab is settings. Currency selection, inclusion of the access code, links to social networks and messengers of the project.
Given the partnership with Binance and other worthy blockchain projects, as well as the convenience of the wallet, its reliability and anonymity, I would recommend it as an alternative to MEW and other Ethereum wallets.
I hope this article was useful for you.
Thanks
