FAQ
Common questions
Which Solana wallet is best?
That depends on your device, use case, and security needs. Key control, transaction clarity, recovery, and a trusted download source matter more than a universal ranking.
What must I never share?
Never enter a seed phrase or private key into chats, forms, or support requests. Anyone who has it can control the wallet.
