• Asset support scope :

• OKX Wallet : The support for digital assets is extremely wide. In addition to well-known mainstream digital currencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, it is also actively embracing emerging niche cryptocurrencies. Continuously expanding the scope of asset inclusion, users can manage a variety of digital assets in OKX wallet and build a diversified investment portfolio. For example, in the early stages of the issuance of some newly popular blockchain projects, OKX Wallet can often quickly follow up on support, allowing users to participate in investment in a timely manner.

• Other wallets : Many traditional wallets are relatively limited in asset support. Some of them only focus on leading digital currencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. For emerging blockchain project tokens, they often fail to support them in a timely manner due to development resources and technical docking issues. This forces users who hold multiple digital assets to manage with the help of multiple wallets, greatly increasing the complexity of asset management.

• Differences in trading functions :

• OKX Wallet : The transaction interface is simple and efficient, and users can easily complete digital currency trading, exchange and other operations. The transaction process is smooth, the system can quickly match market prices, execute trading instructions, and effectively shorten the transaction waiting time. It is deeply integrated with the OKX trading platform, so that users can enjoy the liquidity and trading depth at the professional trading platform level in their wallet, without the need for extra tedious steps. For example, when conducting large-scale transactions, you can quickly find the opponent's trading and achieve the best price transaction.

• Other wallets : Some wallets have transaction functions, but they perform poorly in terms of convenience and efficiency. The trading interface design is complicated, making it difficult for novices to get started quickly. Moreover, when connecting with external trading platforms, users often need to manually perform tedious transfer operations, which is time-consuming and error-prone. Due to insufficient liquidity, some wallets will experience large price slippage when trading large assets, which will affect transaction returns.

• Encryption technology application :

• OKX Wallet : Use advanced encryption algorithms to protect user private keys and transaction information. Taking private key storage as an example, combined with MPC (multi-party computing) technology, the private key is split into multiple fragments and stored in different locations, greatly reducing the risk of the private key being stolen as a whole. Each transaction data is encrypted through multiple layers to ensure the security of transactions during transmission and storage, and prevent data from being maliciously tampered with or stolen.

• Other wallets : Some wallets are relatively lagging behind in the application of encryption technology. Hot wallets rely only on conventional encryption methods and lack protection capabilities when facing complex cyber attacks. Even cold wallets that use hardware to store private keys may not be as strong as OKX wallets in terms of encryption algorithm and flexibility in private key management. For example, some cold wallets may not be able to effectively deal with new attacks on hardware device vulnerabilities.

• Security audit and monitoring system :

• OKX Wallet : Have a professional security team, regularly conducts comprehensive audits of the wallet security system, and promptly discover and fix potential security vulnerabilities. Through a real-time monitoring system, wallet transaction behavior is monitored. Once abnormal transactions are found, such as abnormal transfer of large amounts of funds, transaction requests from suspicious addresses, etc., the warning mechanism will be immediately triggered and corresponding security measures will be taken to ensure the safety of user assets.

• Other wallets : Not all wallets can achieve frequent and professional security audits and real-time monitoring. Due to limited resources, it is difficult for small wallet development teams to establish a complete security audit and monitoring system. This makes it difficult for wallets to detect and respond in time when facing security threats, increasing the risk of user assets damage.

• Wallet creation and recovery process :

• OKX Wallet : The process of creating a new wallet is simple. Users can quickly complete the creation by following simple prompts on their mobile phone or computer. When restoring the wallet, it provides a variety of convenient ways, such as scanning the code of old devices, cloud backup and recovery, etc., to reduce the risk that users cannot recover their assets due to device replacement or loss. The recovery process is simple and easy to understand, and the user does not need to have complex technical knowledge.

• Other wallets : There are many inconveniences in the creation and recovery process of traditional wallets. When creating, users need to carefully record lengthy mnemonic words. Once the mnemonic words are recorded incorrectly or lost, it may lead to permanent loss of assets. Recovering wallets mostly relies on mnemonic words. For users who are not familiar with operations, it is a challenge to accurately restore wallets according to mnemonic words.

• Interface design and interactive experience :

• OKX Wallet : The interface design is simple and intuitive, and the functional module layout is reasonable. Users can quickly find the corresponding function entrance in the clear interface by checking asset balances, performing transaction operations, managing wallet settings, etc. Interaction design focuses on user experience, fast operation response and smooth animation effects, bringing users a comfortable and convenient experience of use.

• Other wallets : Some wallets have not designed interfaces with chaotic functional layouts, and users may spend a lot of time exploring the locations of various functions when using them. Some wallets have problems such as lag and slow response in their interactive experience, which seriously affects users' enthusiasm for use.

• Smart contract support level :

• OKX Wallet : It has good support for smart contracts, especially its AA wallet function, which unifies contract accounts and externally owned accounts (EOAs), making the accounts programmable. This allows users to realize advanced functions such as batch transactions and payment on behalf of Gas, greatly expanding wallet application scenarios and usage flexibility. Be able to operate more efficiently when participating in decentralized finance (DeFi) projects.

• Other wallets : Although some wallets claim to support smart contracts, they have a gap with OKX wallets in terms of functional integrity and ease of use. Support for smart contracts is mostly at the basic level and cannot provide users with rich advanced functions, limiting users' operating experience in the field of decentralized applications (DApps).

• Multi-chain compatibility performance :

• OKX Wallet : It has strong multi-chain compatibility and can seamlessly access a variety of mainstream blockchain networks, such as Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, Polkadot, etc. Users can manage digital assets on different chains in one wallet, and do not need to switch wallets frequently when conducting cross-chain transactions, which is convenient and efficient. For example, when users transfer cross-chain assets, they can quickly complete operations, and the handling fees are relatively low.

• Other Wallets : Many wallets do poorly in multi-chain compatibility and can support only a few blockchains. For users who hold multiple assets on different chains, asset management difficulty and cost are increased, and multiple wallets are required to manage assets on different chains separately.
