**Lace Wallet Extension – Official Release Note
---
**Welcome to Lace Wallet**
Lace Wallet is a next-generation, lightweight browser extension designed to give users seamless, secure, and self-custodial access to decentralized applications, digital assets, and blockchain networks. Built with a privacy-first architecture, Lace Wallet empowers individuals to interact with Web3 ecosystems without surrendering control of their private keys or personal data. This document serves as the official content release accompanying the Lace Wallet Extension, and includes an important disclaimer that all users must read and acknowledge before use.
**What Is Lace Wallet?**
Lace Wallet is a non-custodial cryptocurrency wallet extension that operates directly within your web browser. It allows users to store, send, receive, and manage digital assets across supported blockchain networks. Unlike centralized custodial services, Lace Wallet never holds, controls, or has access to your funds. All transactions are signed locally on your device, and your private keys and seed phrases remain exclusively in your possession at all times.
The extension is designed for ease of use, offering an intuitive interface suitable for both newcomers and experienced Web3 participants. Key features include multi-account management, hardware wallet compatibility, dApp connectivity, NFT viewing, staking support, and customizable network settings.
**Core Features**
1. **Self-Custody Security** – Your keys, your crypto. Lace Wallet stores encrypted private keys locally on your device. No third party, including the Lace development team, can access or recover them.
2. **dApp Browser Integration** – Connect seamlessly to decentralized applications for trading, lending, gaming, and more, without leaving your browser.
3. **Multi-Chain Support** – Manage assets across multiple supported networks from a single interface.
4. **Hardware Wallet Compatibility** – Pair with supported hardware wallets for an additional layer of security.
5. **NFT Management** – View, send, and receive non-fungible tokens directly within the extension.
6. **Staking & Delegation** – Participate in network staking and delegation where supported.
7. **Privacy-First Design** – Lace Wallet does not track your browsing activity, sell your data, or require personal identifying information to create a wallet.
8. **Open-Source Transparency** – Core components are open-source, allowing public review and community contribution.
**Getting Started**
To begin, install the Lace Wallet extension from the official browser store. Upon first launch, you will be prompted to either create a new wallet or import an existing one using a recovery phrase. You will be required to create a strong password and securely back up your recovery phrase. Lace Wallet strongly recommends writing your recovery phrase down on paper and storing it in a secure, offline location.
**Important Security Reminders**
- Never share your recovery phrase or private keys with anyone.
- Lace Wallet support will never ask for your recovery phrase.
- Always verify URLs before connecting your wallet to a dApp.
- Be cautious of phishing attempts, fake extensions, and fraudulent websites.
- Keep your browser and extension updated to the latest version.
