The First Cold Solana Wallet to Show Off Your NFTs!

Article By SecuX Team / February 1, 2023

The world’s first NFT-display hardware wallet / cold wallet SecuX Nifty, just released its latest firmware update, version MCU2.07.3. This update allows SecuX Nifty to become the first cross chain Solana wallet to display Solana NFTs on the cold wallet device itself, users can also send, receive and manage SOL and all SPL tokens on the SecuX Wallet app safely and easily. Further improvements include gallery management and cross chain display to provide a better web3 user experience when safeguarding digital assets and collectibles with complete self control.

Why Do You Need an NFT Wallet?

NFT wallet security and storage, became a major priority for digital asset investors in 2022. Recent NFT hack attempts and thefts, i.e. Seth Green’s Bored Ape NFT theft, the Discord NFT hack attempt, are at the behest of bad actors further push this priority to the forefront of enthusiasts worldwide. Therefore, it is imperative to protect the private keys of your precious NFT collectibles as well as other digital assets, by keeping it offline in a cold storage such as a hardware wallet.

However, most hardware wallets on the market currently are designed for fungible tokens like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Shiba Inu that are very different from the non-fungible characteristics of an NFT. Each and every NFT is unique and one of its kind. It could be a profile picture, a painting, animation, music or video. You may not be able to distinguish between the NFTs in your account while using a traditional hardware wallet, which makes it very hard to manage your digital collectibles, and may accidentally send out the wrong NFT, or list the wrong NFT on marketplaces like Opensea or Magic Eden.

The First Solana Wallet to Display NFTs On-device

The most distinctive feature of all SecuX hardware wallets is the large 2.8 inch color touchscreen, which provides crypto investors a very intuitive and easy to use hardware wallet. Moreover, it enables the display of account balances, account address QR code, and the complete information needed when verifying a transaction. The SecuX Nifty cold wallet has accomplished all of that, plus the ability to display your NFTs visually, instead of a series of letters and numbers, as tokenized items shown on all the other hardware wallets.

Now with its latest firmware upgrade, SecuX Nifty has become the first hardware and cold Solana wallet to be able to display Solana NFTs on the device itself. Solana NFT collectors can enjoy showing off true ownership of their favorite NFTs, but also verify visually every NFT transaction that is going out on the device.

Why Support Solana on SecuX Nifty?

Solana has become one of the leading blockchains in the last two years, with its market cap ranked as high as the 4th place in the crypto world, and now still in the top 20s despite the recent drop impacted by the FTX collapse.

Solana NFTs have also grown in popularity tremendously in 2022. Crypto market intelligence platform Messari points out in its “State of Solana Q3 2022” report that the total number of daily new NFTs in the Solana ecosystem increased to over 8 million. After Opensea, the largest NFT marketplace started supporting Solana NFTs trading in June 2022, Solana NFT integration support has also been announced on social media giants Instagram and Facebook. For NFT collectors, Solana has become one of the most important blockchains alongside Ethereum, Polygon and BNB chain.

As the world’s first NFT-focused hardware wallet, SecuX Nifty strives to provide the safest and easiest cold storage solution for NFT collectors and professionals. Therefore it is one of the top priorities to make SecuX Nifty a Solana wallet, after the company has successfully implemented SOL and SPL tokens support on the SecuXess web application for their SecuX V20, W20 and W10 crypto wallet series.

How to Safely Update to the Latest Firmware

How to Manage Gallery and Cross Chain Display on SecuX Wallet App

New features including Manage Gallery and Multichain Display are also released in this SecuX Wallet app update version.
