Are you considering swapping from MetaMask to a new wallet?
I did some research on four #MetaMask alternatives so you didn't have to.
Let’s get started
The first is @BlockWallet, a self-proclaimed privacy focused wallet as seen on their website:
“You’re leaking IP address and other data to node providers. BlockWallet’s Privacy Proxies trim your personal data. It's a VPN for Web3.”
So, you've decided to quit CEXes for good and now you're on the lookout for a self-custodial wallet?
Here are 5 reasons to choose BlockWallet http://blockwallet.io
Next up is @Trust Wallet, one of my favorite mobile wallets.
They were acquired by Binance a few years ago and have recently launched a bug bounty for their new browser extension.
The next up is @agnostik wallet.
I just found out about it from @Erik Voorhees, whom I respect for his #DeFi stance.
I did notice that they were not open source at the time, but they claim to be next year.
Lastly is @frame.eth, another self proclaimed privacy focused wallet as seen in their bio:
“A privacy focused Ethereum wallet that runs natively on macOS, Windows and Linux”
I was not compensated for sharing these 4 wallets, but I’m open to hearing offers.
Bear market ‘tings
But seriously, along with privacy-focused wallets, I recommend using a hardware wallet and never storing all of your funds in a hot wallet.
Stay safe out there fam
Which wallet from the list above is your favorite?
I'd love to hear from the community on this, and also any other wallets I might have missed.
Alright, lots of DMs shilling wallets so I will update the list.
For #5 we have @Frontier Wallet - I hadn’t heard of them, but their browser extension is in beta.
“We’re excited to release our browser extension wallet to beta users.”

For #6 we have @Rainbow
I’ve heard quite a lot of Rainbow, but I’ve never used them.
They are also jumping into the current MetaMask replacement narrative:
Next up is @Rabby Wallet wallet.
Rabby also themselves as a MetaMask competitor.
This is another new wallet to me but their UI/UX looks great and it’s multichain native.
1/5
Have you started your journey to self-custody? Maybe you've heard about how great Rabby is, but still, you haven't given it a go.
Rabby updated the onboarding process to be more straightforward. If you are inexperienced in using a self-custodial wallet, don't miss out
Coming in at #8 we have @Zerion (Moved to @zerion) Wallet - this will be another honorable mention.
Their tagline is: “Manage your DeFi and NFT portfolios, trade across 10+ networks and connect to any decentralized application with one wallet”
Another multichain native wallet.
It's finally here

At #9 is another classic alternative to MetaMask is the @Brave Wallet.
Brave’s self proclaimed ethos has always been centered on trust and privacy.
I haven’t used Brave in a few years, but I’d be keen to give it another go.
At #10 is @Coinbase Wallet 🛡️, which has a very clean UI/UX.
I've been a user of @Coinbase 🛡️ for yrs and like their recent efforts in #DeFi and Regs.
@Brian Armstrong has been know to be "conservative,” but the recent FTX shitshow taught us that we don't need degen exchange CEOs.
5/ If you’re interested in experiencing the best of both worlds, here are just a few reasons users love Coinbase Wallet:
- Industry-leading security
- Compatible with @Ledger
- Full control of your crypto & NFTs
- Easy access on mobile & desktop
