Crypto exchange Binance buys Trust Wallet

Source: Binance

Binance has completed the acquisition of Trust Wallet, a secure and intuitive mobile wallet. Through this acquisition, Binance aims to provide a better service and to enhance the safety for all of our users.

Trust Wallet (www.trustwalletapp.com ) is a secure, open source, decentralized and anonymous mobile wallet application that supports Ethereum and over 20,000 different Ethereum based tokens (ERC20, ERC223 and ERC721), seeing significant user adoption since its launch in November 2017. The company has built a reputation for security and has held itself to the guiding principles that it will never access user wallets, hold private keys, and ask for personal information.

The acquisition of Trust Wallet will add an on-chain mobile wallet to the list of Binance services with other future integration possibilities. The Trust Wallet brand and team will retain the autonomy and freedom to develop the core product while benefiting from the increased synergy from Binance, including the broad user base and the upcoming DEX.

As a technology driven company, Binance’s acquisition of Trust Wallet shows the importance of secure wallet technology for the future development of cryptocurrency as a whole. As Binance’s first public acquisition, we hope to continue providing our users with improved security, services and support.
