![]() ![]() Solana wallets work by storing your private keys and public addresses. Ethereum and Bitcoin wallets will require significant gas fees for transactions, while Solana will be less than one cent per transaction. ![]() Bitcoin wallets can’t support smart contracts, yet Ethereum can. These wallets differ from Ethereum and Bitcoin wallets. These wallets can be used on the web, phone, or tablet. The three types of Solana software wallets are desktop, mobile, and online. These software wallets are best viewed like a keychain that stores the keys that give you access to your Solana. Solana software wallets like Phantom, Solflare, and Sollet are apps or programs that hold your private keys online. Hardware wallets like Ledger Nano X allow you to protect your private keys and keep you safe from an online attack. What the hardware wallet does is store your private key that opens up the lock on the blockchain where your Solana resides. Solana hardware wallets don’t actually store cryptocurrency, as it is always kept on the blockchain. Software wallets exist on the blockchain and tend to be unique to specific cryptocurrencies, while hardware wallets usually support multiple types of cryptocurrency. Solana wallets are either hardware or software that allows crypto holders to store, send and receive Solana tokens. Through their own investigations, Phantom found that the only affected Phantom users were those that “imported their seed phrases/private keys to or from a non-Phantom wallet.” Phantom claims the exploit was not due to vulnerabilities in their system but rather originated from poor security practices of Slope. In August 2022, Phantom and Slope wallet users suffered a ~$4M exploit (valued at the time of the exploit). Phantom also allows you to mint, buy, and store NFTs through Solana-based marketplaces such as Magic Eden, SolSea, and Solanart. This means you delegate your tokens to a service that stakes for you, but you still have access to your funds. Phantom Wallet allows for liquid staking. Staking Solana through Phantom is an increasingly popular option for receiving rewards and is a very easy process that takes only a few clicks. Transaction fees are paid with the SOL token, and these fees are typically less than 1 cent per transaction. The platform offers a built-in token swap feature, which is currently limited to the Solana ecosystem but does have Ethereum support coming soon. The wallet supports most browsers including Chrome, Firefox, and Brave, while the mobile app is currently available for both iOS and Android platforms. You can also connect it to an external Ledger hardware wallet in a few steps. Once you get it, click the Stake button.The wallet comes with extensions that allow users to easily send and receive cryptocurrencies and tokens, collect NFTs, and even swap tokens within the wallet. Create the Solana account using the Accounts tab, and send some SOL to your new hardware wallet Solana address. Install the Solana app from the Ledger Live App catalog. Buy and set up Ledger Nano X using Ledger Live (desktop or mobile version). SOL is among only a couple of cryptocurrencies that can be staked directly from Ledger Live, which is an amazing opportunity for SOL holders. You can also connect Ledger Nano X to all Solana free software wallets and use their functions, but now knowing, your assets are 100% safe. You can use Ledger Live to buy, sell, swap, lend, stake crypto assets, buy gift cards, using the safe environment only the hardware wallet can provide. Ledger Nano X supports over 5,500+ coins and tokens and works with the Ledger Live app on all devices ( Windows, Linux, Mac, Android, and iOS). Ledger Nano X hardware wallet is the best option to manage and stake SOL safely, and connect with Solana software wallets and DApps. ![]()
