There are 5 important upgrades to NuFi's wallet in 2022 you should not miss.

As NuFi wallet nears its first birthday in 2022, we celebrate by sharing this year’s biggest upgrades to our Web3 Solana wallet.

5. We got Web3 Dapp-compatible (and integrated everywhere)

In July, NuFi became Solana’s newest Web3 Dapp-ready wallet when we added a Solana Dapp connector to our browser extension.

NuFi’s ‘Phantom Wallet Emulation Mode’ makes it possible to use NuFi with Solana Dapps that support Phantom wallet, so you can:

  • buy and sell NFTs (on a marketplace like SolSea or MagicEden),
  • trade tokens (on a DEX like SolDex or Raydium),
  • farm and earn through DeFi (with protocols like Solend or Tulip) and
  • explore digital worlds (like Solice).

4. We built a home for your Solana NFTs

In May, we built an NFT gallery for Solana (and Flow and Cardano) NFTs with some nice touches: NFTs from different accounts side by side, bulk send functionality, NFT traits and detailed metadata, and more.

Ledger hardware wallet users can also manage their Solana NFTs through NuFi; pair your Ledger in under 30 seconds and your NFTs will appear in the NFT gallery.

3. We gave the UX and UI a makeover

This year, we’ve listened carefully to user feedback and added many requested features:

  • Show portfolio value in more fiat currencies (now 25+ supported),
  • Export transaction/staking rewards history to CSV (with date select),
  • Multi-asset sending, Import custom tokens, Privacy mode (to hide balances), Cloud sync (for easy install on a new device) and more.

We’re incredibly grateful to you, our users, and the Solana community at large for the support you’ve shown us this year.

2. We added buy, sell, and trade functionality

In March 2022, we partnered with Changelly to build a cross-chain exchange in the NuFi wallet. By the way, you can trade the SOL in your wallet for hundreds of other crypto coins and tokens, and trade crypto in external wallets for SOL then have it deposited in NuFi (much like a bridge).

Soon after In June, we partnered with Moonpay to enable card purchases for SOL (and hundreds of other popular coins/tokens) with direct deposit into your NuFi wallet. Moonpay lets you sell crypto too and deposits the cash straight into your bank.

1. We kept you safe (unlike other wallets we know)

This year’s collapsing coins, bridge hacks and wallet thefts proved again that security matters most. Here’s our take: get a hardware wallet. It’s near-impossible for a hacker to steal funds from a Ledger Nano or Trezor.

If you don’t use a hardware wallet, you’re still safe with NuFi. All sensitive data stays encrypted on your computer and isn’t accessible to anyone but you. If you need, you can delete your wallet at any time (from wallet Settings or by clearing the browser cache) and restore it later using your recovery phrase.

Already using a Solana wallet?

Import your existing wallet and take NuFi for a test drive. Install NuFi, then restore your existing wallet using its seed phrase or by pairing your Ledger hardware wallet. Contact our support team here if you need any help.
