Trust Wallet Launches Trust Handles by FIO Protocol, Simplifying Crypto Transactions for 130M+ Users

Houma, LA, January 23rd, 2025, Chainwire

• Trust Wallet’s network of over 100 blockchains and 10m digital assets can now access domains with the FIO usability layer
• Improved user experience for Trust Wallet’s 13m monthly users aims to lead the way towards greater cryptocurrency adoption
• Long, complex cryptocurrency addresses can be mapped to easily legible handles such as user@trust

Trust Wallet, a leading Web3 provider trusted by over 130 million users worldwide, has announced it has integrated with the Foundation for Interwallet Operability (FIO) Protocol as its default domain provider. This integration transforms crypto transactions on Trust Wallet by replacing complex blockchain addresses with easy-to-read, customizable handles like “name@trust.” This enables users to send and receive assets effortlessly across multiple blockchains.

Simplified Transactions with Free FIO Handles

Traditionally, sending or receiving crypto involves using long, complex alphanumeric addresses. In the world of blockchain, transactions are irreversible – sending assets to an incorrect address results in a permanent loss of funds. This integration provides a critical layer of protection for users by replacing dozens of error-prone wallet addresses across different blockchains with simple, human-readable handles.

“This is an incredible opportunity for Trust Wallet to help tackle the cross-wallet usability issues that are holding back the industry from mainstream adoption. We’re delighted to be aligning with FIO who share a similar vision to us,” said Viktor Radchenko, founder of Trust Wallet.

This integration spans Trust Wallet’s entire ecosystem of more than 100 blockchains and 10 million-plus digital assets. At no cost, users can manage all their cryptocurrency transactions through a single Trust Handle, eliminating the complexity of lengthy blockchain addresses and reducing the risk of costly mistakes. Users also maintain full control over which blockchain addresses are linked to their Trust Handle, providing flexibility as their needs change.

Since its launch in 2017, Trust Wallet has been on a mission to bring blockchain technology to the masses with its robust suite of self-custody tools, including multi-chain support, private key management, in-app swaps, and compatibility with mobile apps and browser extensions. The integration with FIO reflects Trust Wallet’s ongoing commitment to mainstream adoption, aiming to address common barriers to cryptocurrency use.

“Trust Wallet’s expansive cryptocurrency user base and broad network of blockchains can now enjoy an easier and more secure way to interact with other digital asset holders,” said Wayne Marcel, Head of Growth at the Foundation for Interwallet Operability (FIO). “Previous technology adoption cycles have shown that usability is key to ensuring mass adoption and provides the guiding star for our team.”
