Revolutionizing Wallets

Phantom Wallet CEO Brandon Millman suggests that with the evolving crypto system the wallet needs to adapt to the multichain nature of the space as well. However, wallets need to overcome there are some technical hurdles. This is to support multiple networks, such as different methods for deriving keys. And also for the system to manage multiple nodes on the backend.

Millman also cleared the air on the recent speculation about the possible airdrops to decentralize operations on the wallets. He said that Phantom has no shot-to-medium-term plans to support a token.

The CEO believes that the cost to add these airdrops to the system is not worth it. This does not even lead to the desired impact. As can be assumed from Uniswap’s airdrop which did not make much difference in the long term.

Furthermore, Millman emphasized concerns related to the regulation of the crypto space. As it is an issue that cannot be ignored, not even by self-custody wallets. The projects also need to be compliant with the requirements.
