A wallet in twenty seconds.
Look at your phone. That’s it. Vela creates a passkey in your device’s secure enclave and splits your key into three shards, so there is no recovery phrase to lose, photograph or get phished out of you.
Now on 12 networks · gas covered on your first 50 swaps
Vela is a self-custody wallet secured by your face, not a twelve-word secret. See every asset on every network as one balance, and swap between them in a single tap.
How Vela works
Four moments that used to take a tutorial, three browser extensions and a bridge you had to trust.
01 · Create
Look at your phone. That’s it. Vela creates a passkey in your device’s secure enclave and splits your key into three shards, so there is no recovery phrase to lose, photograph or get phished out of you.
02 · See
Vela watches every network you hold assets on and rolls them into a single balance, priced live. No toggling networks, no hunting for that token you bridged last spring.
03 · Swap
Sign one intent and a solver with liquidity on both sides fills it, usually in under five seconds. If nobody fills it within 90 seconds, nothing moves and nothing is charged.
04 · Pay
Every Vela user gets a name. Send to juno.vela and Vela picks the cheapest chain you both use. Sending between Vela names is always free.
Cross-chain
L1s, L2s, rollups and appchains — Vela speaks each one natively. Pick a destination and see exactly what a swap would cost before you sign.
Route finder
Tap any network to route there.
Security
Seed phrases fail in two ways: you lose them, or someone tricks you into typing them. Vela removes the phrase and keeps the custody.
2-of-3 key shards
Any two shards can sign. No single party — not even Vela — can move your funds.
Everyday signing: your phone + Guardian.
