Earlier today, video game retailer GameStop launched the beta version of its very own Ethereum wallet. Users interested in participating in the beta can download the wallet from the Chrome Web Store, to be used as a Chrome or Brave browser extension.
Upon downloading, users will be able to securely store and use cryptocurrencies across a wide range of decentralized applications without having to leave their Chrome tab. According to its website, mobile versions of the GameStop wallet will be available in the future as well.
Another key feature of GameStop’s wallet is that it is non-custodial, meaning users will have complete control of whatever digital goods they store on it. No third party will have access to any given user’s wallet, just whoever is in possession of its private key. Users interested in making their wallets even more secure can do so by offloading their contents into a compatible third-party hardware wallet.
