Ctrl Wallet has launched its browser extension, allowing users to manage their assets across over 2,300 blockchains, including Bitcoin, Solana, Ethereum, Cosmos, and THORChain.

Ctrl, the self-custody wallet solution formerly known as XDEFI, announced on Monday, December 2nd, that it has launched a new browser extension, allowing users to manage their assets across over 2,300 blockchains, including Bitcoin, Solana, Ethereum, Cosmos, and THORChain. 

In a press release shared with Cryptowisser, the team said the browser extension simplifies self-custody by consolidating all assets within a single, intuitive platform, making it easy to connect to dapps, swap tokens cross-chain, aggregate their portfolio, and even uncover forgotten funds.

A key feature of the extension is the Gas Tank, which solves one of crypto’s biggest pain points: gas fees. The Gas Tank allows users to pay all on-chain fees with a single balance of $USDC or $CTRL, no matter the blockchain. 

While commenting on this launch, Emile Dubié, Co-Founder and CEO of Ctrl, said,

“The Gas Tank is a game-changer for self-custody. Our users can now interact cross-chain without the hassle of managing different gas tokens. This launch represents a significant step forward in making self-custody as user-friendly as possible.”

Ctrl Wallet’s unified portfolio view further enhances ease of use, giving users a single, aggregated dashboard to manage holdings across multiple accounts and blockchains. 

According to the team, this view allows users to keep track of their assets effortlessly and makes it possible to rediscover funds they may have forgotten. Furthermore, the portfolio summary enables users to easily locate assets spread across different accounts.

Existing XDEFI Wallet users' accounts and funds will automatically migrate to Ctrl Wallet, allowing them to instantly benefit from the extension’s advanced features. Dubié added that,

“Our extension wallet is making self-custody accessible to everyone around the world.” “Our team is committed to creating a wallet that empowers users to control their assets and take advantage of all the opportunities in crypto.”

Founded in 2020, Ctrl is a leading self-custody wallet that provides access to over 2,100 blockchains in a secure, easy-to-use interface. Serving a global user base of over half a million, Ctrl offers a reliable platform for managing crypto assets, executing token swaps, and connecting with decentralized applications. Ctrl Wallet is designed for both crypto enthusiasts and newcomers, making self-custody accessible for all.
