Crypto Wallet Atomic Wallet

Atomic Wallet is a decentralized multi-currency wallet founded in 2017 in Estonia by Changelly founder Konstantin Gladykh. The wallet got its name from its support for atomic swaps — a technology that allows exchanging cryptocurrencies directly between blockchains without intermediaries. Atomic Wallet supports over 1,000 cryptocurrencies and tokens, including all major networks.

The desktop version is available for Windows, macOS, Linux, Ubuntu, and Fedora, making Atomic Wallet one of the most cross-platform wallets. Built-in exchange through partnerships with Changelly and ChangeNOW enables swapping over 500 cryptocurrency pairs. Fiat-to-crypto purchases are available through Simplex and other providers.

Staking in Atomic Wallet supports 14 coins, including ADA, SOL, XTZ, ATOM, BAND, and AWC (the wallet's native token). AWC holders receive cashback on token swaps and additional staking bonuses. Private keys are stored locally on the user's device and encrypted with a password.

Fees

Atomic Wallet is free to download. Token swaps include partner fees (Changelly, ChangeNOW) and a 2-5% spread. Fiat purchases through Simplex charge 3.5-5% fees. Staking includes a small validator fee (5-10% of rewards).
