Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does changing display currency affect actual wallet balances?A: No. Display currency only alters how values appear visually. All on-chain balances remain unchanged in their native tokens.

Q: Can I set different display currencies for individual wallets?A: No. Phantom applies the selected display currency globally across all imported wallets within the same app instance.

Q: Why does my selected currency not appear in the list?A: Phantom excludes currencies unsupported by its current exchange rate provider or restricted due to regulatory compliance in your region.

Q: Is offline mode compatible with custom display currency?A: Yes. Last-fetched exchange rates persist in cache, allowing continued fiat estimation without active internet connection.
