and the people behind it.
BUILT FOR ACCESS

One wallet. Many
ways to connect.

Jaxx Liberty made it easier to manage digital assets across the devices people already used.

01 — ASSETS
◈

80+ cryptocurrencies

Major networks like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Dash, and Bitcoin Cash sat alongside dozens more.

02 — PLATFORMS
▦

Across your devices

Available for iOS, Android, desktop operating systems, and as a Chrome extension.

03 — DESIGN
⌁

Lightweight by design

It connected to remote services instead of downloading full blockchains, while keys stayed on the user’s device.

“

Developed by Decentral, the Canadian company founded by Anthony Di Iorio, an Ethereum co-founder.

A LITTLE CONTEXT
KNOW THE TRADE-OFFS

Convenience was
the promise. Security
needed attention.

Understanding the old security model matters—especially if you still have a Jaxx backup phrase.

01

Keys generated on your device

A 12-word mnemonic acted as a backup and derived keys for supported blockchains. Jaxx said these keys were not stored on its servers.

LOCAL KEYS
02

Optional layers of protection

Transaction PIN, two-factor authentication, and encryption options were available. The wallet itself did not have password protection.

USER-SET
03

Known local-storage concerns

Jaxx Liberty had reported vulnerabilities, including concerns around how seed phrases were stored locally. It should not be considered secure software today.

A SIMPLE INTERFACE

More than a
place to store.

Jaxx combined everyday wallet tools in one minimalist interface, helping users keep an eye on their holdings.

↗

Portfolio at a glance

Real-time pricing and portfolio views gave users a quick snapshot of their assets.

⇄

Exchange capabilities

Built-in currency exchange features made it possible to swap supported assets within the wallet.

▣

QR-enabled transfers

QR codes helped simplify sending and receiving by sharing an address and transaction details.

IF YOU STILL HAVE A JAXX WALLET

Move forward.
Carefully.

Jaxx Liberty was discontinued in March 2023 and its servers were shut down. If you still hold funds, prioritize safety and use a trusted wallet that supports your assets.

!
CRITICAL WARNING

Never share your 12-word phrase.

Fake Jaxx apps and websites have targeted former users. Entering your phrase into a fraudulent service can give someone control of your funds. No legitimate support team will ask for your seed phrase.

KEEP IT
PRIVATE
01⌕

Verify the destination

Find a wallet through its official website or trusted app store listing. Confirm it supports the networks and assets you need.

02↳

Import with care

A BIP-39 compatible wallet may restore addresses from your phrase. Only enter it directly in verified wallet software you control.

03✳

Create fresh wallets

After recovering access, create new wallets with fresh seed phrases and move funds to the new addresses for better protection.
