 Edge is a decentralized and secure mobile multicurrency wallet. Rebranded from Airbitz, the Edge Wallet provides true financial autonomy & privacy for its users. Neither Edge nor any 3rd party﻿ can access users' funds or data within the Edge wallet. A clean, user-first interface solves many of the usability issues plaguing current wallet solutions.

Pros

Decentralized server architecture. Wallets work even if Edge servers are down. Supports Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to transfer funds instead of scanning QR codes. Simple account creation using just a login & password (no printing or emailing of PDFs, writing down passphrases or adding encryption settings). Automatic wallet encryption, backup, and multi-device synchronization
Hierarchical Deterministic wallets with changing addresses per transaction. Local client-side encryption (S-Crypt password hashing & AES256 encryption) of all user keys and data. No user info required to use wallet (no name, address, email, or phone number)
Native C/C++ code for super strong encryption and password hashing (S-Crypt password hashing & AES256 encryption). Local client-side encryption using user-generated login & password
