Fuse is Solana's first smart wallet, designed to leverage smart accounts to redefine personal digital asset management. Fuse is not an iteration of existing crypto wallets; it’s a reimagination of what a crypto wallet can be, meticulously built to support the evolving needs of digital asset management. Fuse is built on Solana’s leading smart account standard—Squads Protocol—to create the most secure wallet for your Solana assets. Fuse replaces seed phrases and single-key pairs with multifactor authentication. Each Fuse wallet deploys a smart account that requires approval from 2 out of 3 designated keys for every transaction. This multisig configuration removes any single point of failure and makes it much harder for unauthorized access to your funds. Fuse’s programmability also lets you rotate keys and enables social recovery, giving you more control and peace of mind. Smart accounts move the industry forward from a one-size-fits-all custody model to one based on programmability and customization. Apart from making wallet access and recovery more seamless, Fuse also unlocks new workflows: - Progressive Security: Start with a simple email for wallet recovery and elevate your security over time. Whether it's integrating a cold wallet as a 2FA mechanism or the flexibility to rotate keys, Fuse adapts to your security needs. - Spending Limits: Define spending limits for any token and timeframe. Spending limits enable transactions without multifactor authentication for predefined operations, blending convenience with control. - Gas Abstraction: Fuse acts as a “gas tank” that automatically pays network fees on your behalf, ensuring a seamless transaction experience at all times. We created Fuse with the belief that robust asset security is crucial for the growth of the onchain economy. We aim to be the premier platform for growing your onchain wealth securely.
