Self-Custody Wallet
The wallet gave users control of their recovery phrase and private keys rather than relying on a conventional exchange account.
Important: Browser Extension Discontinued
According to Exodus Support, support for the Exodus Web3 Wallet browser extension ended on October 1, 2026. New users can no longer install it, and the existing extension no longer supports normal wallet functions.
If you previously used this extension, consult the official Exodus recovery instructions before taking action. Do not uninstall the extension if you still need to view its recovery phrase and have not safely backed it up.
What Is Exodus Web3 Wallet?
Exodus Web3 Wallet was a self-custody cryptocurrency browser extension designed to connect users with decentralized applications, blockchain networks, decentralized finance services, and other Web3 tools.
A self-custody wallet gives the user control over the secret recovery phrase and private keys. This provides direct control over wallet access but also makes the user responsible for protecting recovery information.
Although the browser extension has been discontinued, Exodus continues to provide other wallet products. Visit the official Exodus website to review currently available desktop and mobile wallet options.

How to Recover Access to Your Exodus Wallet
If you held assets in the discontinued Exodus Web3 Wallet, Exodus advises using your 12-word secret recovery phrase to restore the wallet in Exodus Mobile or another compatible wallet.
- Find your existing backup. If you already recorded your recovery phrase securely, use that offline backup.
- Consult the official recovery instructions. Read the Exodus discontinuation notice and identify a compatible wallet for the networks you used.
- Verify the wallet application. Obtain wallet software only through its verified official website or trusted official app store listing.
- Restore privately. Enter your recovery phrase only into trusted wallet software that you have independently verified.
- Check supported assets and networks. After restoration, verify your addresses and balances using the appropriate blockchain explorers where needed.
Important: Never enter your recovery phrase into a website, online form, chat, or search result that claims it can recover your funds.
Exodus Wallet Security Guidelines
Wallet recovery information grants access to your funds. Keep it private and follow these precautions:
- Never share your 12-word recovery phrase or private keys.
- Do not disclose your wallet password to support representatives.
- Store recovery information offline in a secure location.
- Verify website addresses before downloading wallet software.
- Be cautious of fake support accounts and recovery services.
- Never approve transactions you do not understand.
- Verify the destination address and blockchain network before sending funds.
- Use only trusted and compatible wallet software for recovery.
