Review on EVER Wallet by gregori cordova

Revainrating 5 out of 5

an extremely easy-to-use wallet, whose main objective is to allow the mass adoption of cryptocurrencies



The great hype and revolution that cryptocurrencies have had in recent months is impressive and represents an opportunity for many projects and developers to seek to offer alternatives that allow these cryptocurrencies to become widespread, and have increasingly varied use cases. One of these alternatives is cryptocurrency wallets, and today I want to talk to you about the Ton Crystal wallet, which is leading the way in many ways and due to its ease of use, (in an environment where there are hundreds of wallets), it has had a large number of users lately.



Birth and evolution of the wallet



Once again, the Free Ton community echoes its great possibilities in terms of decentralization, creating through the company broxus, (one of its oldest validators and collaborators), the first wallet for the entire Free ton ecosystem. called Ton Crystal wallet, taking advantage of a large part of the work started under the test gram wallet base, developed by the telegram team and of which they themselves were part in the beginning. It is a desktop wallet that can be installed as an extension in the browser of your choice and is available for Windows, Mac OS and Linux operating systems, and has support for tip-3 tokens, a decentralized programming paradigm that provides basic functionalities for the exchange between wallets and for the issuance of new tokens, which means that in addition to the crsystal wallet tokens, multiple cryptocurrencies can also be stored under that standard that today is well known mainly due to the bridges that are being created in many blockchains to allow sending altcoins from slower and more expensive networks to others with greater scalability and almost zero fees, such as the Free ton blockchain.



subgovernance to power!



The existing sub-governance systems in the Free ton project have been in charge of proposing many improvements to the ecosystem in general, including the Ton Crystal wallet, which was the product of a contest that sought to create a web crypto wallet similar to what it is nowadays Metamask, with basic functionalities existing in most wallets and with promising innovations to the ecosystem. this contest was called ‘’ Free ton wallet as a Chrome extension ’’ and distributed among the 4 main proposals, a total of 220,000 Ton Crystal tokens; as 1st place the winner was ton cristal wallet from the broxus team, 2nd place went to Ton wallet from SVOI.dev, 3rd place for ShardEx from RSquad and fourth place for Oberton.



Another of the proposals made by the community weeks later, was voted in a contest to implement the new design of the same, which had as a prize almost 50,000 crystal tokens distributed among 5 winners.



One aspect that I found to be quite valuable about this wallet is its simplicity and ease of use, since in just a few steps you can create or import an existing wallet, and start interacting with it, and represents an ideal solution for the millions of new users who are entering the market, who are burdened and confused by the large number of existing wallets that are usually not so easy to understand for someone who is just taking their first steps in the blockchain environment. In addition, there is a detailed guide, on the free ton house blog, on how to create a wallet for those who are not familiar with the subject, where it will guide you step by step to have your wallet ready.



Improvements are still being made and each one of them goes through a vote in the project's sub-governance, but I consider that for a user with little experience in the world of cryptocurrencies it is one of the easiest wallets to use that you will find in the market. They do not yet have the sending of tokens, only the receive section appears, but I suppose that since it is a relatively new wallet, arrangements are being made to allow the sending of any token soon.



Main features



In addition to the ease of use that the ton cristal wallet has, there are several common characteristics as in other wallets and certain innovations such as:



  • Multi-signature crypto wallet
  • Back up and restores many wallets
  • Secure and encrypted toke storage
  • It has support for main and test networks
  • Clear and clean interface
  • Interaction with decentralized applications
  • Support for TIP-3 tokens, etc.
  • 

There are plans to implement its new feature DEbots, which are a kind of telegram bots but that run as smart contracts on the TON blockchain facilitating the fluid conversation with these types of contracts. The feature is already available in another of their main wallets called Tonsurf, which was created by Ton labs, and which has both mobile and web versions.



Finding a wallet that suits the user's needs is not an easy task, and Free Ton knows it. That is why new features are constantly being created in the community that help strengthen the network and serve as bridges to promote the use of this new financial system that is growing exponentially every day.

Pros
  • A contest was held to create a web extension for ton Crystal tokens with support for the main current browsers with a prize for the first 4 places of 220,000 TON Crystal tokens.
  • At the end of October 2020, a contest proposal was made to improve the design of the wallet, in which almost 50,000 crystal tokens were awarded among 5 winners.
  • The user interface is extremely clear and easy to use, you don't need to be an expert to make any transaction in this wallet.
  • The implementation of its new Debots feature is something that will undoubtedly facilitate the massification of the Free Ton ecosystem.
  • The wallet does not yet have an official support system but you can receive help directly from the broxus telegram chat
  • It is an open source wallet and access to the source code is available to all users
Cons
  • The wallet still does not have the button to send tokens, (at least in the version that I have installed in my browser) something that has me confused because I have seen some images in the chrome store where that button does appear. in any case I hope the implementation will happen soon.
