What is a Cryptocurrency Wallet?

To learn more about cryptocurrency wallets and why you would want to set one up on your Sandbox account, view .

Below you can find information about supported wallets and how to connect one to a Sandbox account.

Choosing a Wallet

The Sandbox officially supports some wallet types, with more possible additions in the future.

Choosing a wallet is entirely up to the user. We have provided information below to help you make your own free, independent decision about which one is right for you.

IMPORTANT NOTE Some wallets are more suited to different purposes and experience levels. You can remove a wallet from your account and connect another. This does NOT affect the content in your wallet(s).

RESTRICTIONS MAY APPLY Some countries have restrictions on what you can do with a cryptocurrency wallet, but everyone is able to create and play for free.

SECURITY TIP Only download or register for a wallet from the official wallet provider's website, which are included below. There are occasionally fake websites that try to impersonate the real wallet provider's website.
