Best larp wallet: seven checks to run before you pay for one

Asking which is best gets you a ranking written by whoever wanted your click. Running seven checks gets you an answer that fits what you are filming. Three of them protect you, four protect what you publish, and we fail one of them ourselves, which is said here rather than left for you to find.

Why "best" is the wrong first question

Every ranking you will find was written by someone with a stake in its order, including this page, which is written by people who make one of these tools. Read it with that in mind.

The question that produces a useful answer is narrower: which one fits the shot I am making, and which ones are unsafe regardless of the shot. Seven checks, in two groups.

Three checks for your own safety

1. Does it ever ask for a recovery phrase?

If yes, stop. There is no version of drawing a screen that requires the words that restore a wallet. The request is the attack, whatever reason accompanies it: import, restore, verify, migrate, unlock a feature. No legitimate one exists.

2. Does it need installing?

A browser page can draw a wallet screen perfectly well. An install, especially a browser extension, asks for access to a device that sits beside your real accounts. That is a steep price for a picture, and the benefit is zero.

3. Does it offer notifications?

Some tools advertise fake incoming-payment alerts. There is one use for that feature: showing somebody proof of a transfer that never happened. A tool selling it has told you what its customers are doing with it, and you do not want to be in that customer list.

Four checks for what you publish

4. Does the layout match the app you are talking about?

Most tools render one interface. If your scene is about a specific app, check that the tool renders that app rather than something close. A half-match is worse than an obvious prop, because the people who notice are exactly the audience you were trying to convince.

5. Do the totals add up?

Compose a quick screen and add the rows yourself. If the total was typed separately from its contents, a careful viewer will find the gap, and once they find one inconsistency they go looking for others.

6. Do the prices come from the market?

Invented prices fail against anyone who checks, and checking takes four seconds. Prices read from public market data also drift while you film, which is the cheapest realism available.

7. Does the export match a phone capture?

Vertical, native resolution, no resampling. Anything resized announces itself on the edges, and a wallet screen is mostly edges.

The seven, run on ours

• 1. Recovery phrase: never asked, and there is no code path that could use one.
• 2. Install: none. It runs in the browser and is added to the home screen.
• 3. Notifications: none, and we will not build them.
• 4. Layout: one only, a hardware wallet companion app. This is where we fail for some people, and the next section says so.
• 5. Totals: computed from the rows, so they cannot disagree.
• 6. Prices: read from public market data, drifting live.
• 7. Export: phone resolution, vertical.

Where ours falls short

One layout. If you need a specific software wallet on screen, a browser extension window, or an exchange trading view, we do not render any of those and no setting will produce them.

We also charge, and there is no free tier of the full product. You can use the live interface without an account to decide, which is the closest thing to a trial that exists here.

If the one layout fits your shot, the rest of the checks are ones we pass deliberately rather than by accident. If it does not, check four is the one that matters and you should believe it.
