Exodus® Web3 Wallet® | The Official Secure Multi-Chain Browser Extension

The Exodus® Web3 Wallet® is a self-custodial, browser-based extension that provides a unified interface for the modern decentralized web. Unlike single-chain wallets, Exodus allows you to navigate Ethereum, Solana, Bitcoin, Cardano, and Polygon side-by-side without manually switching network settings.

Why Choose the Exodus™ Extension in 2026?

With the rise of Layer-2 scaling and fragmented liquidity, the Exodus Web3 Wallet is engineered for "Automatic Network Detection." It removes the friction of Web3 by intelligently identifying which chain a dApp requires.

🚀 Key Features for 2026:

  • One-Click dApp Connectivity: Connect seamlessly to Uniswap, Jupiter, OpenSea, and thousands of other Web3 applications.
  • Integrated Swap Engine: Exodus automatically scans multiple Decentralized Exchanges (DEXs) to find the fastest routes and lowest rates for your cross-chain swaps.
  • Native NFT Gallery: View and manage your digital collectibles across multiple chains in a curated, high-fidelity gallery.
  • EVM & Non-EVM Support: Manage assets on Ethereum, Base, and Arbitrum alongside Solana and Bitcoin in one single extension window.
  • Fiat On-Ramp: Purchase crypto directly with Apple Pay, Google Pay, or credit/debit cards via integrated trusted partners.

🔒 Security Architecture: Safety First

Exodus® is a non-custodial wallet. This means you have 100% ownership of your private keys. Exodus Movement, Inc. never sees your password or your 12-word recovery phrase.

Advanced Protection Features:

  • Hardware Wallet Integration: For maximum security, pair the extension with a Trezor hardware wallet. This keeps your private keys offline while allowing you to enjoy the sleek Exodus interface.
  • Local Encryption: All wallet data is encrypted locally on your device using AES-256 standards.
  • No KYC Required: As a software-based tool, Exodus respects your privacy. You can store, send, and receive assets without submitting personal identification.
  • Phishing Alerts: Built-in safeguards flag suspicious URLs and malicious smart contracts before you sign a transaction.

🛠️ Setting Up Your Exodus® Web3 Wallet (Official Guide)

Setting up your extension takes less than two minutes. Follow these verified steps to ensure you are using the official build:

1. Official Download

Always visit the Official Exodus Download Page or the Chrome Web Store to avoid malicious clones. The extension is compatible with Google Chrome and Brave.

2. Create or Restore

  • New Users: Click "Create New Wallet." You will generate a 12-word Secret Recovery Phrase. This is your ONLY way to recover funds if your device fails. Never store this phrase digitally.
  • Existing Users: If you already use Exodus Mobile or Desktop (or even MetaMask/Phantom), select "I Have a Wallet" and enter your 12-word phrase to sync your accounts.

3. Set a Strong Password

Create a unique password that acts as a local lock for the extension. In 2026, Exodus supports biometric unlock (TouchID/FaceID) on compatible laptops for faster access.

📊 2026 Supported Networks & Asset Management

Exodus continues to expand its ecosystem. As of early 2026, the extension provides robust support for:

  • Core Chains: Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), Cardano (ADA).
  • Layer-2 & EVM: Base, Polygon, Arbitrum One, Optimism, Avalanche C-Chain, and BNB Smart Chain.
  • Staking Rewards: Earn passive income by staking SOL, ADA, and ATOM directly within the extension dashboard.

Note: On June 3, 2026, Exodus will sunset support for Axelar (AXL). Users are encouraged to migrate AXL assets before this date, though private keys will remain accessible for external recovery.
