🌑 Exodus Web3 Wallet® | Getting Started with Exodus Web (Dark Colour Format)
Welcome to the Exodus Web3 Wallet®, a secure and easy-to-use browser extension that connects you to the world of decentralized applications (dApps), DeFi platforms, NFT marketplaces, and more. Exodus Web3 Wallet empowers you to hold your own private keys and recovery phrase while interacting directly with supported blockchain networks—all from your browser. This guide is tailored for use with dark backgrounds and avoids bullet points or numbered formatting, allowing smooth visual flow in modern dark-themed UI/UX environments.
To begin using Exodus Web3 Wallet, first ensure that you are using a Chromium-based browser such as Google Chrome or Brave. Visit the official Exodus website or trusted browser extension store to download and install the Web3 Wallet extension. Once installed, you can pin the extension to your toolbar for easier access if desired.
Upon launching the extension for the first time, you will be prompted to either create a new wallet or restore an existing one. If you choose to create a new wallet, the application will generate a unique 12-word recovery phrase. This phrase is the single most important component of your wallet’s security. Write it down and store it safely offline in a location only you can access. Never share this phrase with anyone, and avoid storing it digitally. Once your recovery phrase is secured, you'll be asked to set a strong password to protect access to your wallet within the browser extension. Users restoring a wallet can input their 12-word phrase and complete the setup process by choosing a new password.
Exodus Web3 Wallet supports a growing number of networks, including Ethereum, Solana, Avalanche C-Chain, Algorand, Polygon, BNB Smart Chain, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, and others. You may also add custom tokens and assets depending on the network’s support within the extension. Once the wallet is set up, you can send and receive cryptocurrencies by selecting the appropriate network and token, entering the recipient’s wallet address, confirming the amount, and approving the transaction. All actions occur within the browser extension, and you will be shown relevant gas fees or network costs before confirming any transaction.
The built-in swap feature allows you to exchange tokens across supported blockchains without leaving the wallet interface. This provides a smooth and seamless experience for users who want to convert one asset to another without using external platforms. When interacting with dApps or Web3-enabled platforms, you can visit a compatible site and select the "Connect Wallet" option. Exodus Web3 Wallet will either appear as a listed option or connect via standard browser wallet integration protocols. You will receive a prompt in the extension asking for permission to connect, and once approved, you can start using that dApp immediately.
If your assets are not appearing in the wallet interface, ensure you are connected to the correct network. Some assets or custom tokens may need to be added manually. Additionally, the extension may prioritize certain networks, and tokens not native to those chains may not display by default. Exodus Web3 Wallet does not currently support every token or chain, so it’s important to check compatibility via Exodus support if needed.
As a user-controlled (non-custodial) wallet, all responsibility for security rests with you. Exodus never has access to your private keys, seed phrase, or password. If you lose this information, Exodus cannot help recover your funds. For the safest experience, keep your recovery phrase in a secure physical location (such as a fireproof safe), use strong passwords, and never interact with suspicious dApps or unknown browser links. Always ensure that you're using the official Exodus extension from trusted sources and that your browser is up to date.
The wallet is suitable for a wide range of users—from beginners exploring DeFi and NFTs for the first time, to advanced users interacting with complex smart contracts and protocols. The interface is designed for clarity and ease of use, and Exodus provides full support articles and community guidance should any issues arise.
