Zerion is a non-custodial, multi-chain cryptocurrency wallet and portfolio management platform. It provides a unified interface for users to track, manage, and trade their digital assets, including tokens, DeFi positions, and NFTs, across numerous blockchain networks. The platform is designed to simplify access to decentralized finance and make cryptocurrency more accessible to a broad audience. [1] [2]
Zerion was founded in 2017 with the stated mission to simplify access to blockchain assets and increase financial freedom for its users. The company operates on a fully remote model, with a team of over 40 employees distributed across more than 19 countries. Despite its remote structure, Zerion maintains physical office hubs in Lisbon, Portugal, and London, UK. [2]
The platform aggregates functionality for portfolio tracking, token swapping, and cross-chain bridging into a single application. It operates on a self-custodial basis, meaning users retain full control and ownership of their private keys and funds. [1]
Zerion's official mission statement reflects its emphasis on ownership and autonomy: "We believe that true ownership is the key to freedom. At work and in your wallet." [2]
The Zerion Wallet is a self-custodial, multi-chain smart wallet available as a mobile application for iOS and Android, as well as a browser extension for Chrome and Firefox.
As a non-custodial solution, it ensures that users have sole control over their assets. For enhanced security, the wallet can be connected to Ledger hardware wallets. The core codebase of the Zerion Wallet is open-source, allowing for public review and verification. [1]
A core feature of the platform is its comprehensive portfolio tracker, which is integrated into both the web application and the mobile wallets. The tracker automatically discovers and monitors all of a user's assets connected to a specific wallet address. It provides detailed tracking for a wide range of assets, including:
The portfolio tracker supports assets from over 8,000 different protocols across its supported networks. [1]
Zerion incorporates a trading aggregator designed to source the best available prices for token swaps and cross-chain bridges.
This functionality is powered by Zerion's proprietary open-source DeFi SDK. By aggregating liquidity from a variety of decentralized exchanges (DEXs), including Uniswap, 1inch, Balancer, and Sushiswap, the platform aims to provide users with optimal execution for their trades. [1]
Zerion provides extensive support across the broader cryptocurrency ecosystem, connecting to over 51 blockchain networks. It is compatible with major EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) chains, as well as the Solana network. [1] [2]
Supported networks include:
In terms of asset support, the platform tracks all major coins listed on Coingecko, along with other ERC-20 tokens. It can automatically identify and track DeFi positions from over 500 different protocols. While Zerion does not offer native support for Bitcoin (BTC), an address can hold and track wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC) and other tokenized versions of Bitcoin. [1] [2]
Zerion DNA is a unique feature of the platform in the form of a generative, "living" Non-Fungible Token (NFT). The visual appearance of each Zerion DNA NFT dynamically evolves based on the owner's on-chain actions and the assets held within their wallet.
This creates a unique digital identity that reflects a user's journey in Web3. There are over 369,000 holders of Zerion DNA NFTs. [1] [2]
The ZERϴ Network is listed as a product offering by Zerion. However, detailed information regarding its specific function or purpose is not extensively described in the provided materials. [2]
Zerion offers an API that allows third-party developers and companies to access on-chain data for portfolios, transactions, and NFTs. A specialized NFT API is also available. This service is utilized by other prominent projects in the space, such as Uniswap and WalletConnect, who are listed as API clients. [1] [2]
Zerion places a significant emphasis on the security of its platform and has implemented several measures to protect its users. The platform has undergone multiple security audits conducted by reputable third-party firms, including Cube53, Secfault Security, Peckshield, and Trail of Bits. All audit reports are made public to ensure transparency. [1]
To further bolster its security, Zerion runs an active bug bounty program in partnership with Immunefi. This program incentivizes security researchers to discover and responsibly disclose potential vulnerabilities in the platform's code. The open-source nature of the core wallet code also contributes to its security by allowing for community and public scrutiny. [1]
