We’re proud of the products we’ve delivered so far as we’ve got one of the most user-friendly mobile wallets in the Ethereum ecosystem and it’s already released on both iOS and Android. What we’re developing with TokenScript will bring functionality to tokens and make it easier for developers to utilize smart contracts functions. Our aim is to establish AlphaWallet as a solid platform to serve the growth of the ecosystem and onboard the next influx of users across the various growth areas: DeFi, DAO, games and social applications with a cross-section of products.”

Roadmap Ahead
The AlphaWallet team will be focused on working with partners to bring missing functionality to crypto products with TokenScript and unlock features that will empower users and make it easier for developers to deploy their DApps.
“AlphaWallet is providing a solution to the trillion-dollar question: We now have peer-to-peer, programmable money powered by the blockchain and smart contracts, but how to integrate the business logic of the goods and services across the physical world and the digital world, concurrently let participants interact in a verifiable and fully decentralized manner.”
