Philippine-based blockchain platform Tetrix Network has launched a new crypto wallet called Pitaka that lets cryptocurrency owners handle and manage their blockchain assets via a convenient browser extension.

A product “made by Filipinos, for the world,” Pitaka lets users store multiple cryptocurrencies and digital assets. These include Binance Coin, Ether, and over 18,000 other cryptocurrencies and non-fungible tokens throughout 25 popular blockchains.

According to Tetrix’s chief revenue officer Felix Asuncion, Pikata is fully decentralized and utilizes what his company claims to be the first omnichain protocol that is capable of direct communication across all blockchains. Pitaka also supports Trezor and Ledger, allowing users to connect to these hardware wallets.

Pitaka claims to be secure by basing its processes on WalletConnect, an open protocol that defines how decentralized apps establish a secure connection with cryptocurrency wallets.

Pitaka is also non-custodial, meaning users have the sole control of the wallet’s private key that proves their ownership of their cryptocurrency holdings.

The Pitaka browser extension is available for Google Chrome and Brave. A mobile app version is currently in development.

  2. I dont know why, but based on Pitaka.io website they didn’t post the types
    of cryptocurrency they currently support (as only mentioned 25) but doesn’t
    indicate the names of each and comparing it to other startup wallets, its a
    standard for cryptocurrency websites to indicate it so potential users can be
    informed right away thus giving confidence to those who are interested to
    signup. Money is involved in cryptos and its a good practice to know right
    away the kind cryptos they support otherwise it doesnt make sense if your
    planning to invest and save your crytpos in a wallet that has not receive any
    reviews what more indicating the type of cryptos a wallet supports. It doesnt
    built confidence specially now a days that a lot of new crypto wallets are
    vying for market shares in terms of users.
