What it can do
How the score breaks down
Each dimension is explained on the methodology page.
Where it is strong and where it is not
✓ Strengths
- The natural wallet for the Cronos ecosystem

- Easy transfer from the main Crypto.com app
✗ Weaknesses
- Easily confused with the custodial Crypto.com app
- Not fully open source
- Cronos ecosystem is small
Incident history
No security breach or significant incident on record.
The Crypto.com app is custodial. Onchain is not. Moving between them is a real blockchain transaction, not an internal transfer.
Reputation and reviews
A reputation score out of 100, kept separate from the feature score above. It reflects what users actually report over time rather than a star rating scraped on one day.
REPUTATION
68/100
Formerly the DeFi Wallet, and the rename caused real confusion. Solid enough, and the obvious choice on Cronos, but people repeatedly mistake it for the custodial Crypto.com app.

Star ratings change constantly, so we link to the sources rather than printing a number that is out of date the day after it is written.
