Phantom Review: The Solana Wallet That Learned Ethereum, Base and Bitcoin

Phantom is the best wallet we know for anyone whose main chain is Solana, and a respectable second wallet for Ethereum, Base and Bitcoin. It costs nothing to install, but swaps carry a 0.85% fee on select pairs, there are no custom EVM networks, and it is still a hot wallet. Keep serious balances on a Ledger and let Phantom be the daily driver.

A score is our judgement after funding an account, using the product and withdrawing. It is not a prediction and it is not advice: the right choice depends on where you live and what you need.
