On mobile, Kaspium. On desktop, Kaspa NG. In cold storage, Tangem or Ledger, both inside their own apps, with Cool Wallet, OneKey and SafePal as further options the wiki lists. For KRC-20 tokens in the browser, Kasware. All of them are listed by the community's own directory, and all except the hardware devices are free.
Just as important: two wallets you will still find recommended in old guides are deprecated — KDX and the old web wallet at wallet.kaspanet.io. And the only safe places to start a download are kaspa.org/hodl and the community wiki's wallet list — never a search result.
This table is deliberately short. It contains the wallets that are open about their code, visibly maintained in 2026, and listed in the community's own directory — not the twenty-entry lists that affiliate pages need to fit every referral partner in.
| Wallet | Where it runs | Code | What to know |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kaspiummobile · iOS + Android | your phone, keys on the device | open source, MIT | The standard mobile choice. Actively maintained — last release June 2026. KRC-20 support is not documented, so treat it as a KAS wallet. |
| Kaspa NGdesktop · win, mac, linux | your computer, can run its own node | source public | Successor to KDX, written in Rust. Also exists as a web version — but in web mode your keys live in browser local storage, so prefer the desktop build for real amounts. |
| Tangemhardware · card + app | keys on the card, never online | vendor hardware | Supports Kaspa natively in the Tangem app, including KRC-20 token management. The simplest cold-storage route today. |
| Ledgerhardware · in Ledger Live | keys on the device | device app open source | Works inside Ledger Live. You install the Kaspa app from My Ledger, add a Kaspa account, and send and receive in the same window. KasVault still works and was the only way for a long time, which is why many guides still describe it as the only option. |
| OneKeyhardware · Classic | keys on the device | open source vendor | Kaspa support announced by kaspa.org itself for the OneKey Classic. |
| Cool Wallethardware · card | keys on the card | vendor firmware | Listed by the community wiki as supporting Kaspa since August 2024. Card format, pairs with a phone app. |
| SafePalhardware · X1 | keys on the device | vendor firmware | Listed by the community wiki with its own setup guide for Kaspa. |
| Kaswarebrowser extension | chrome + firefox | open source | The KRC-20 workhorse. Install only from the official store listing — clone repositories with the same name exist. A hot wallet, so keep sizes small. |
| CLI walletcommand line | your machine, expert use | guide in the wiki | For people who run nodes and read documentation for fun. If you have to ask, it is not for you, and that is fine. |
This is where outdated guides actively hurt people. Two wallets that appear in years-old "best of" lists are officially retired by their own developers:
The general rule this teaches: a wallet recommendation has a shelf life. Check the project's last release date before trusting any list, including this one — this page was last verified on 18 August 2026 against the community wiki and, for the Ledger entry, against a screenshot from the running application.
The question every Kaspa newcomer asks, usually in mild panic: "my wallet shows a different receive address than yesterday — did something break?"
No. Kaspa wallets are HD wallets on a UTXO chain, like Bitcoin. Your wallet generates a fresh receive address after use for privacy, so outside observers cannot link all your payments together. The two facts that matter:
Seed phrases are not guaranteed to be compatible between different Kaspa wallets — the wiki maintains a dedicated compatibility chart. Before you wipe wallet A after importing its seed into wallet B, confirm the full balance actually shows up in B.
