Ramp Network Launches Multichain Wallet That Eliminates Third-Party Dependencies in Self-Custody
London, United Kingdom, April 17th, 2026, Chainwire
Ramp Network, a global crypto infrastructure provider enabling seamless access between fiat and digital assets, today announced the launch of a multichain wallet designed to address a long-standing limitation of self-custodial crypto products: the need to rely on third-party providers for core actions like buying, swapping, and cashing out.
Ramp Network has historically operated as the infrastructure layer behind crypto purchases within partner applications, including MetaMask and Trust Wallet, serving over 10 million users globally. With the launch of Ramp Network Wallet, the company is bringing that infrastructure directly into a consumer-facing product.
The wallet enables users to buy, sell, trade, and cash out digital assets within a single application, removing the need to rely on third-party providers or external interfaces for core actions.
While self-custodial wallets offer users control over their assets, they have historically depended on external services for key functionality. This often results in fragmented user experiences, repeated identity verification, and multiple interfaces. While most self-custodial wallets focus on key management, they often rely on multiple external providers for core functionality such as payments, swaps, and withdrawals.
Ramp Network’s wallet integrates these functions into a single platform, allowing users to verify their identity once and transact across supported networks without requiring additional onboarding steps.
From launch, the wallet supports Bitcoin and Ethereum, along with assets across eight networks, including Arbitrum, Base, Optimism, and Solana. These networks represent a significant share of global crypto market capitalization and commonly held assets.
“Every self-custodial wallet has the same problem nobody talks about,” said Przemek Kowalczyk, CEO and co-founder of Ramp Network. “The moment you try to actually do something, buy, swap, or cash out, you get sent to a third party you’ve never heard of and asked to verify yourself again. We built the infrastructure ourselves, so we never have to do that. One account, every chain, your keys.”
The result is a self-custodial experience that more closely resembles centralized platforms in terms of functionality, while maintaining full user control over assets. Existing Ramp Network users can access the wallet using their existing credentials, with identity verification and payment methods carried over.
Ramp Network built and operates the core infrastructure powering the wallet, including on-ramp, off-ramp, and cross-chain execution. This allows users to transact across supported networks within a single application, without relying on external bridges or service providers.
The wallet operates as a unified account across chains, with balances, trading, and cash access managed in one place. It uses USDC on Base as a core balance for transfers, payments, and in-app activity.
All assets remain under user control through a self-custodial setup secured by passkeys, with optional key export functionality.
The wallet is available globally, excluding the European Union, with additional regional availability expected as regulatory conditions evolve. Ramp Network plans to expand supported assets and blockchain integrations in future releases.
The launch represents the first phase of the company’s broader multichain strategy, focused on simplifying self-custody while maintaining user control over digital assets.
