This page sets out how Wallet Post produces what it publishes. The rules are short on purpose: readers should be able to hold us to them.
How we assess wallets and DeFi tools
Every review starts from the threat model: what the product protects against, what it cannot, and how much trust it asks you to place in its maker. From there we work through the same checklist every time — how keys are generated and stored, what the recovery path looks like and how easy it is to get wrong, how transactions are presented before you sign them, how the product handles approvals and permissions, what its supply chain and breach history look like, and what it costs in money, friction, and vendor trust. Claims are built on documented behaviour and published sources — a maker’s own documentation, regulators’ texts, and credible trade coverage — with figures attributed to where they came from (“per Ledger”, “per the FCA”). We do not invent test results, statistics, or quotes, and we do not present a vendor’s claims as our own measurements. We do not give financial advice, and no review is a suggestion to buy any crypto asset.
What scores mean
Where a review carries a score, the score is an editorial judgment of the product as a whole against its own category’s job — a hardware wallet is scored as a key-keeper, a hot wallet as an interface — on the scale shown in the review itself. A high score is praise, not a promise, and never a safety guarantee: no wallet makes you unrobbable, and no score is for sale. Even the products we rate highest have their drawbacks listed, because every product has them.
Disclosure
Wallet Post is commercially supported and may earn affiliate commissions or advertising revenue from links. Any paid or affiliate content carries a disclosure notice in the post itself, and paid links are marked accordingly. Sponsors receive clearly labelled space; they do not receive editorial control, and they do not receive conclusions.
Bylines
Articles here are published under house bylines maintained by the editorial team. “Lena Okafor”, the editor’s byline on our reviews, is a disclosed house pen name — the accountable editorial identity behind every piece, in the tradition of publications that write under a shared masthead. News runs under “Staff, Wallet Post”. We do not fabricate journalist biographies or credentials.
Corrections
We correct errors of fact quickly and visibly. If you spot one — a figure, a date, a name, a mischaracterised regulation — write to us through the contact page and flag it as a correction. That queue is read first.
