Uniswap lanceert Mobile Wallet-service
- Uniswap scoort hoog in het Ethereum DeFi-protocol en heeft $4.26 miljard aan totale waarde vergrendeld.
- Over the past few years, a number of wallet developers have provided mobile apps with integrated DeFi features to make Web3 onboarding simpler.
- The mobile wallet from Uniswap faces stiff competition already from services like Coinbase Wallet, MetaMask, and Robinhood’s wallet app, to mention a few.
Het cryptocurrency-bedrijf Uniswap Labs, dat het DeFi-handelsplatform Uniswap lanceerde, heeft een plek voor zijn Wallet-app in de Apple App Store. De Uniswap Wallet iOS-applicatie is nu beschikbaar voor gebruikers in de Verenigde Staten en enkele andere landen.
Het bedrijf zei in een aankondiging,
Apple approved the wallet for use in several countries throughout the world. We’ll continue to launch in other countries as soon as Apple lets us.
Uniswap released the wallet to 10,000 early adopters last month via Apple TestFlight, the company’s testing platform. Uniswap claimed in March that it had no idea why Apple had previously declined to approve the release of the software on the Apple Store. For users in the US, UK, and France, that launch barrier now seems to have been overcome; however, it is unclear if or when Apple will authorize Uniswap’s software for use in other territories.
De portemonnee is echter volledig uitgerust voor gebruikers. Volgens de uitwisseling kunnen gebruikers tokens verhandelen op de Ethereum-, Polygon-, Arbitrum- en Optimism-netwerken met behulp van de nieuwe portemonnee. Daarnaast kan de app ook worden verbonden met andere Ethereum-apps met behulp van WalletConnect.
Uniswap kondigde de lancering aan en zei:
Too many people get stuck at the starting line. We get thousands of user support tickets from Uniswap Web App users confused by self-custody wallets. So, we’re proud to bring you a self-custodial wallet that is simple, safe, and easy to use.
The new wallet also provides support for users to back up their accounts. They simply have to write down their seed phrase or encrypt their key vaults with a password and store them in iCloud. The Uniswap app also displays detail about the nonfungible tokens (NFTs) that are held there, such as their floor prices and collections. Users can leverage the app to explore different cryptocurrencies and select tokens and wallet addresses.
The app’s developers hope that these features will motivate people to custody their own cryptocurrency using DeFi wallets, which often have a higher entry barrier than more centralized methods of purchasing and storing cryptocurrencies.
