Non-Custodial

Security

Service that never controls user funds or private keys.

Non custodial services let you transact directly from your wallet without handing over keys. This removes counterparty risk from the platform, but it means you must handle backups and device security.

Frequently asked questions

  • What are the benefits of non custodial services?
    You keep control of your keys and assets. There is no platform custody risk, but you are responsible for security.
  • Do non custodial apps ever hold funds?
    No. They present transactions for you to sign in your wallet. Funds move only with your approval.
  • How do I use them safely?
    Verify contracts, set small approvals, and keep your recovery phrase offline.
