TRD Web3 Wallet (Upcoming)
Your Secure Gateway to the Decentralized Web
The TRD Web3 Wallet is a secure, non-custodial, and multi-chain application designed to be your primary interface with the decentralized economy. It gives you true ownership of your assets while integrating essential financial tools and advanced security controls, all within a single, intuitive platform.
1. Core Principles & Wallet Overview
1.1 Non-Custodial Ownership & Security
The TRD Wallet is fundamentally non-custodial. This means the network never holds your funds. You, and only you, control your Private Keys and Seed Phrase (Secret Recovery Phrase). All sensitive information is encrypted and stored securely on your device, not on TRD servers.
CRITICAL: Your Seed Phrase (12 words) is the ultimate key to your funds. If it is lost, TRD Network cannot recover your wallet. You can access the Reveal Secret Recovery Phrase option under the Security settings to safely back up your phrase.
1.2 Multi-Chain Support & Networks
The wallet is built to manage the complex multi-chain ecosystem from one simple interface.
Supported Mainnets: We provide native support for major public blockchains, including Ethereum, Linea, Base, and Solana, allowing you to seamlessly manage your primary assets.
Custom Networks (EVM-Compatible): The wallet easily integrates with major Layer-2 solutions and sidechains like Arbitrum One, BNB Smart Chain, OP Mainnet, and Polygon Mainnet. You have the flexibility to add any other custom network you need.
Test Networks: Developers and advanced users can access several testnets for development and experimentation, including Sepolia, Linea Sepolia, Mega Testnet, and Monad Testnet.
2. Wallet Functionality and User Flow
The wallet's primary interface features key actions and a comprehensive navigation bar, making it easy to manage your crypto and explore Web3.
2.1 Home Dashboard: Tokens and NFTs
The main screen is your centralized hub. It displays your total asset balance and provides immediate access to core functions. You can easily switch between viewing your Tokens (cryptocurrency holdings, balances, and network affiliations) and your NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) across all supported chains.
2.2 Core Actions (Buy, Send, Receive, Swap)
Buy (Seamless Fiat-to-Crypto On-Ramp)
The Buy feature allows you to instantly purchase popular cryptocurrencies using traditional fiat currency (like USD or EUR). This service integrates with established third-party payment gateways, enabling secure transactions using methods like credit card, debit card, or bank transfer, all without leaving the wallet application.
Send and Receive (Fundamental Transfers)
Send: Initiate transfers to any external wallet address. The wallet provides real-time gas fee calculation to show you the cost of the transaction before you confirm it. Every send action requires a security confirmation (PIN or Biometric).
Receive: Generate a unique public wallet address and QR code instantly. This address allows you to receive funds from any external source across all supported chains.
Swap (Instant Token Exchange)
The Swap feature integrates with leading Decentralized Exchange (DEX) liquidity protocols, allowing you to instantly trade one crypto asset for another directly in the wallet. This is powered by Smart Routing technology, which scans the decentralized market to find you the most efficient and cost-effective exchange rate available. It also supports Cross-Chain Swaps—the ability to exchange tokens between different blockchain networks.
2.3 Trending & Earn
The bottom navigation bar provides dedicated tabs for market information and passive income generation.
Trending: This is your real-time market dashboard. It provides constantly updated data on asset prices, 24-hour volume changes, market cap, and community sentiment. This is a crucial tool to help you make informed decisions by tracking top-performing and popular assets.
Earn: This is your gateway to passive income. It includes native integration for Staking (allowing you to earn rewards on Proof-of-Stake assets, including the native $TRD Token) and connections to audited Yield Aggregation protocols where you can lend assets to earn interest safely.
2.4 Activity and Browser
Activity: Provides a complete, chronological history of all your confirmed and pending wallet actions across every connected network.
Browser: The built-in DApp browser is your direct gateway to the decentralized web. You can access the TRD Network website directly from here to use our other tools (like the Multisender or Token Creation), or securely connect to external Decentralized Applications (DApps) and Web3 services using WalletConnect (which you can manage in the Experimental settings).
3. Getting Started: A Step-by-Step Guide

Add Funds: Use the Buy feature to purchase cryptocurrency with fiat, or use the Receive feature to transfer assets from an exchange or another wallet.
Manage Assets: View your tokens and NFTs on the Home Dashboard.

To send crypto, tap Send, enter the recipient's address, and confirm the gas fee.
To receive crypto, tap Receive to view and share your wallet's public address or QR code.
To exchange crypto, tap Swap, select the tokens you want to trade, and review the Smart Routing rate before confirming.
Explore and Earn: Tap the Browser to access the TRD Network tools or external DApps, and use the Earn tab to start staking or generating yield.
4. Advanced Settings & Customization
The Settings menu provides granular control over security, performance, and appearance of your wallet.
4.1 Advanced Features (The Advanced Tab)
This section is designed for users who want fine-tuned control over their wallet's performance and transaction behavior.
Smart Accounts: You can switch to Smart Accounts where available. Think of these as upgradeable accounts that allow you to pay network fees using any token (not just the main chain's coin like ETH) and can deliver faster, more flexible transactions.
Smart Transactions: Enabling this turns on a feature that automatically finds the most efficient path and parameters for your transaction, making it faster and more reliable on supported networks.
Hex Data: For very technical users, this option toggles the display of the raw, low-level transaction code on the send screen.
Autodetect Tokens: This feature automatically finds and displays any new tokens sent to your wallet. You can disable this if you prefer to manually add tokens for a higher level of privacy.
Reset Account: This function will simply clear your local history of activity (past transactions) from your app interface. It does not affect your funds on the blockchain.
4.2 Security and Privacy Controls (The Security & Privacy Tab)
This section is critical for protecting your assets and managing your data sharing preferences.
Access Controls: Protect your wallet with a strong Password, automatically lock the application after a set time (Auto lock), and use Biometrics (fingerprint/face ID) for secure, quick unlocking.
Security Alerts: Turn on this feature to receive real-time warnings about potentially malicious activity or suspicious transaction requests, helping you stay safe from phishing attempts.
Scam Protection: This feature uses external intelligence to check incoming NFTs and tokens against known threats, giving you a warning before you interact with any potential scam airdrops or malicious tokens.
IPFS Gateway: This setting lets you choose the path the wallet uses to load decentralized pictures and content(like NFT images or profile pictures), making sure they display correctly and quickly.
Privacy Controls: Gives you full control over managing external services connected via WalletConnect, clearing your browsing data, and deciding if you share anonymous usage data (MetaMetrics) to help us improve the wallet.
4.3 General and Sync (The General and Backup & Sync Tabs)
These settings control the wallet's appearance and backup mechanisms.
Currency Conversion: Set your preferred Fiat Currency (default USD) to view the equivalent value of your crypto assets. You can choose to prioritize displaying token values in the chain's Native currency (e.g., ETH) or your selected Fiat currency.
Account Icon: Personalize how you view your different accounts using unique icon styles: Polycons, Jazzicons, or Blockies.
Backup and Sync: Enable syncing of encrypted data for your Accounts and Contacts across devices. This keeps your custom settings and features consistent if you reinstall the wallet. Note: This process does not back up your Seed Phrase.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: Why should I choose TRD over other non-custodial wallets?
A: TRD Wallet stands out by integrating advanced features like Smart Accounts and Smart Routing into a simple interface. We offer comprehensive Multi-Chain support and robust, customizable security controls that help protect you from scams and data risks, giving you a smarter and safer experience than standard wallets.
Q: How can I buy crypto in the TRD Wallet without a direct partnership?
A: The TRD Wallet provides the Buy functionality by integrating with secure, industry-leading third-party payment gateways. When you initiate a purchase, you are securely directed to the gateway partner's interface to complete the transaction, which is then sent directly to your TRD Wallet address.
Q: What should I do immediately after creating my wallet?
A: The single most important step is securing your funds. Go to Settings → Security & Privacy and use the Reveal Secret Recovery Phrase option. Write the phrase down and store it in a safe, offline location (like a safe or deposit box). Never store it digitally or share it with anyone.
Q: What is the benefit of the 'Browser' accessing the TRD Network website directly?
A: The built-in browser makes it seamless to transition from asset management to utility use. By accessing the TRD Network website, you can use our advanced tools—such as the Multisender or Token Creation—without needing to manually switch to an external web browser, creating a unified ecosystem experience.
Q: Will the 'Autodetect Tokens' feature affect my wallet's privacy?
A: Yes, if you use the 'Autodetect Tokens' feature, third-party services must analyze your wallet address to identify new tokens. If privacy is your highest concern, you can turn this feature off in the Advanced Settings. Your tokens will still be in your wallet, but you may need to add new tokens manually.
Q: How do I manage my network fees (gas)?
A: The wallet automatically calculates the current network fee (gas) required for any Send or Swap transaction and clearly displays it for your approval. If you are using a Smart Account on a supported network, the wallet may offer even lower and more flexible fee payment options.
