A Redesigned Portkey, Built for an Enhanced Web3 Experience

Navigating the future of crypto with seamless functionality and intuitive design

Blog Image

In the dynamic realm of Web3, where innovation is constant, user habits inevitably evolve. Recognising this, Portkey underwent a comprehensive redesign, optimising its user interface to cater to common user needs and enhance overall experience.

Upon opening the Portkey App/extension, users are greeted with an intuitive asset dashboard, featuring essential functions like Send, Receive, Buy, and Deposit for seamless asset management. Transactional activities, including fund transfers and other on-chain transactions, are conveniently displayed in the Activity section, ensuring easy checking. Assets are neatly categorised into Tokens and NFTs, providing a clear and organised view.

The newly-introduced Trade section, positioned between Discover and Chat in the Portkey App, offers expanded capabilities. Users can choose between Swap and Bridge options, directing them to decentralised exchange, AwakenSwap, or cross-chain bridge, eBridge, both mature dApps in the aelf ecosystem. For those seeking diverse experiences like NFT trading, the Discover section provides access to more services, from integrated dApps like NFT marketplaces and games to essential tools like block explorers for streamlined on-chain inquiries.

Adjacent to Trade is the Chat function, facilitating your communication with friends and fostering stronger connections within the Portkey community. Surely you don’t wanna miss out on the Portkey Official Group!

Get ready to be amazed by the delightful Web3 experiences awaiting you in the latest version of Portkey.

ProsCons
MPC wallets are incredibly safe thanks to their novel security mechanism.There are relatively fewer MPC wallet solutions available, as compared to multisig wallets.
MPC wallets provide you with more flexibility in managing your assets, especially if it’s a wallet for institutions or investment groups.MPC wallets appear easy to use on the outset, but they still require a level of technical expertise and cryptography knowledge.
MPC wallets greatly reduce the risk of a single point of failure.MPC wallets can take slightly longer to execute transactions because its security mechanism is fairly resource-intensive.
MPC wallets are highly decentralised, adhering to cryptocurrency’s core principles.You’d still need to manage each private key fragment carefully. After all, each one is crucial to forming the full key.
