Review on Guarda Wallet by Fanuel PORPORTY
What is Guarda Wallet?
The Guarda wallet is open source software available in many different implementations. You can choose between different wallet versions for the Web, iPhone, Android, Chrome browser extension or a desktop wallet (available for Windows, Linux and macOS).
There is a wallet solution to meet everyone's needs, and of course they are all free. Not all of these wallets are kept, which means that they give users full control over their own coins, and therefore full responsibility for their secure storage. Guarda claims that no personal or cryptographic information is stored by the company, which makes the user the only person able to manage their cryptocurrency.
All wallet versions have access to exchange features and offer users the ability to purchase any of the supported cryptocurrencies with a debit card. Of course, you can create a new wallet, but if you prefer to just use the software, you can also easily import your existing wallets to Guarda.
Guarda displays recommended fees for each transaction, but users can customize transaction fees as desired.
Pros
- Open source. You can verify that Guarda Wallet is what it says.
- Non-custodial. Only you hold your own private keys.
- Customer support. Unlike many non-custodial wallets, Guarda has actual customer support in addition to a helpful community.
- Chrome extension. You can access the world of dapps from your Guarda wallet.
Cons
- In-wallet purchase and swap fees. It will typically be more cost-effective, but less convenient, to use cryptocurrency exchanges instead of buying and swapping directly from your wallet.
