Hot wallet
Exodus vs Rainbow
Same kind of product, two profiles. Affiliate status is not how this page is ordered.
Exodus
Exodus is a hot wallet: the keys are meant to live on your device, not at an exchange. Swap fees and the exact asset list were not re-verified from Exodus's fee page on this date, so those figures are left blank rather than guessed.
Rainbow
Rainbow is an Ethereum-focused hot wallet. Fee numbers and the exact network list were not verified, so this profile does not quote them.
