Ctrl Wallet introduces a browser extension for seamless asset management across 2,300+ blockchains, including Bitcoin, Solana, and Ethereum.

A streamlined solution for managing assets
Ctrl, previously known as XDEFI, has launched a browser extension wallet designed to simplify self-custody and streamline crypto management across more than 2,300 blockchains. The wallet, compatible with blockchains such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Cosmos, and THORChain, integrates features for token swapping, decentralized app (dApp) connections, portfolio aggregation, and even fund recovery.
At the core of this innovation is the Gas Tank, a unique tool addressing the challenge of managing gas fees across multiple blockchains. The Gas Tank enables users to pay transaction fees using a single USDC or CTRL balance, irrespective of the blockchain. By bypassing the need to hold multiple tokens for different networks, the wallet creates a more efficient and user-friendly experience.
The Ctrl Wallet can also be connected to some of the best crypto hardware wallets like Ledger and Trezor, ensuring maximum security for your digital assets.
The Gas Tank is a game-changer for self-custody. Our users can now interact cross-chain without the hassle of managing different gas tokens. This launch represents a significant step forward in making self-custody as user-friendly as possible. —Emile Dubié, Co-Founder and CEO of Ctrl
Unified portfolio for smarter management
The browser extension features an aggregated portfolio dashboard, allowing users to manage assets across blockchains and accounts in one view. This includes rediscovery tools to locate hidden or forgotten tokens, such as assets tied to dormant accounts or custom network wallets.
Ctrl Wallet has rapidly gained traction, with over 500,000 users and top-tier ratings on the Google Chrome Store. Existing XDEFI users will experience a seamless transition, as accounts and funds migrate automatically to the new platform.
Designed for simplicity and accessibility
Ctrl Wallet is crafted for both newcomers and seasoned crypto users, boasting a setup time of under 15 seconds. Its design emphasizes accessibility, ensuring anyone can confidently manage their crypto assets.
“Our extension wallet is making self-custody accessible to everyone around the world,” added Dubié. “Our team is committed to creating a wallet that empowers users to control their assets and take advantage of all the opportunities in crypto.”
The bottom line
Ctrl Wallet’s browser extension is a significant step in making self-custody practical and intuitive for a global audience. By combining multi-chain support, innovative gas fee solutions, and user-centric portfolio tools, Ctrl is redefining how individuals interact with their digital assets.
