Argent Wallet is a non-custodial wallet for Ethereum tokens that aims to be the most secure and simple "Smart Wallet" for crypto.
What's a smart wallet? By leveraging smart contracts, Argent Wallet has innovated a whole new class of wallet, offering users uniquely user-friendly features like a social recovery tool (instead of your standard 24-word backup phrase), daily withdrawal limits, and human-readable addresses.
To find out how Argent is changing the experience of holding crypto, we talked to Co-Founder and CEO Itamar Lesuisse.
How did you discover crypto?
I started to focus on it after I sold my last startup, Peak, the leading brain training app. My now co-founders, Julien, who was previously in quantum information, and Gerald, also a co-founder of Peak with me, were sharing notes on the technology and could sense there was something special about it. Making our first transactions felt like magic. But equally we could see that the UX and security had a long way to go. We thought we could fix that.
