# Edge

> Crypto Without Complexity

Edge is a self-custody crypto wallet company. It lets users store, exchange, and buy or sell digital assets with a username and password login instead of a seed phrase.

Edge is a self-custody cryptocurrency wallet company. Its app lets users store, exchange, buy, and sell digital assets with a username and password login and a PIN or biometric unlock. Seed phrases are not required for backup but stay available to users who want them.

Keys and account data are encrypted on the user's device before they reach Edge's servers, so Edge cannot access funds. Account data syncs across devices, and the app supports a wide range of cryptocurrencies, including privacy-focused ones. In-app buying, selling, and swaps run through partner providers, and a duress mode and a private network option add protection in high-risk situations.

Edge also offers key management for developers through a security API and SDK. The wallet serves beginners and experienced users who want private, self-custodied crypto on mobile.
