- Brave Wallet will soon integrate Cardano, enabling users to manage ADA and Cardano-native assets directly within the privacy-focused browser.
- The integration is part of Brave’s expansion into multichain support. It already includes Ethereum and Solana.
Brave Wallet, the crypto wallet integrated into the privacy-focused Brave web browser, will soon support the Cardano blockchain, allowing users to send, receive and swap ADA ADA$0.79904 and Cardano-native assets directly.
The move comes as Brave deepens its multichain functionality beyond existing support for networks like Ethereum and Solana, according to a release from Input Output (IO), which develops applications for and supports the Cardano network.
STORY CONTINUES BELOW
Once the integration is complete, users will be able to access Cardano governance features, sign transactions and manage assets without relying on third-party browser extensions.
Charles Hoskinson, CEO of IO, described the rollout as part of a broader effort to support secure and private on-chain participation. He emphasized its relevance as Cardano enters the Voltaire era, a phase focused on decentralized governance.
Brave Wallet’s upcoming support also lays the groundwork for future work involving Midnight, IO’s privacy-focused blockchain project built around confidential smart contracts and data protection.
