Non-custodial wallet
A non-custodial wallet is a wallet whose private keys are controlled solely by the user, meaning no external party can spend the funds it holds.
In a non-custodial model the user signs their own transactions and the provider never touches the signing key. This removes custody risk and its regulatory weight, but places key management on the user or their software. Our tx primitives are deliberately non-custodial: we build and simulate transactions and broadcast signed ones, but the wallet signs locally and we never see or hold the private key. This lets a product offer send, swap and payout flows without becoming a custodian.
