Ramp Network unveils multichain self-custody wallet to streamline crypto management
According to the crypto infrastructure provider, the newly launched wallet enables users to purchase, trade, exchange, and withdraw cryptocurrency all within a single application, eliminating dependency on third-party services.
On Friday, financial technology firm Ramp Network announced the release of a multichain self-custodial wallet that aims to address a persistent challenge in the cryptocurrency space: the requirement to depend on third-party providers for essential functions like purchasing, exchanging, and withdrawing assets.
According to an announcement provided to Cointelegraph, the wallet enables users to purchase, sell, exchange, and withdraw digital currencies within one unified application, leveraging Ramp's proprietary on-ramp, off-ramp, and cross-chain infrastructure instead of directing users to third-party services.
The wallet debuts with compatibility for Ether (ETH) spanning eight different networks: Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, Linea, MegaETH, Optimism, Polygon zkEVM and zkSync Era. Additional network support is planned, encompassing Bitcoin, Solana, Binance Smart Chain, Polygon, Apechain, Avalanche, Celo and Gnosis, according to Ramp.
Making self-custody more accessible continues to be among the most significant product challenges facing the cryptocurrency industry. Ramp's strategy involves consolidating payments, swaps and cash access within a unified application to reduce the fragmented experience of non-custodial wallets while preserving user control over their assets. The company explained that USDC (USDC) on Base serves as the primary balance for transfers, payments and in-app activity, with assets remaining protected through a self-custodial framework utilizing passkeys and optional key export functionality.
Among other cryptocurrency wallets providing integrated decentralized exchange (DEX) capabilities for purchasing assets and conducting swaps are Metamask, Phantom, Best Wallet and Exodus.
Wallet launches outside the EU
According to Ramp, the wallet will be accessible worldwide, with the exception of the European Union, because of regulatory compliance requirements.
Since December 2025, Ramp Network has held authorization as a Crypto Asset Service Provider under the European Union's Markets in Crypto Assets Regulation (MiCA), as documented in the European Securities and Markets Authority's MiCA register.
Nevertheless, introducing a product like a wallet necessitates "additional regulatory steps," which are anticipated to be completed within the upcoming months, Przemek Kowalczyk, co-founder and CEO at Ramp Network, explained to Cointelegraph.
According to Ramp, the company has historically functioned primarily as the infrastructure backbone supporting cryptocurrency purchases within partner applications, such as MetaMask and Trust Wallet, providing services to over 10 million users around the world.
Ramp pitches simpler self-custody flow
According to Kowalczyk, Ramp developed the infrastructure in-house to ensure users wouldn't need to exit the application to purchase, exchange, or withdraw funds, all while retaining full control over their digital assets.
We would not frame this as becoming a new intermediary, but rather as reducing the number of intermediaries involved in a transaction. By bringing these flows into a single system, we reduce those handoffs and make the experience more consistent and predictable.

According to Kowalczyk, this consolidated wallet infrastructure will provide enhanced execution control and streamline the currently fragmented wallet user experience, all while users continue to retain full ownership of their assets.
