A Look Back at Jaxx Liberty Wallet
Jaxx Liberty Wallet was created as a self-custody solution for people who wanted to manage cryptocurrency without handing control of their private keys to a centralized company. Its wallet architecture was built around the principle that users should control access to their own digital assets.
Unlike custodial platforms, a non-custodial wallet does not normally hold the user's private keys on behalf of the user. Jaxx Liberty was known for keeping sensitive wallet information locally on the user's device. Its interface brought multiple cryptocurrency balances and transaction activity together in one wallet experience.
Self-Custody at the Center
The central idea behind Jaxx Liberty was user ownership. A wallet backup or recovery phrase could be used to restore access when a compatible wallet supported the same standards. This made careful backup management an essential part of using the wallet.
