Phantom Unveils Multi-Chain Integration with Ethereum and Polygon

Phantom, a highly regarded non-custodial wallet designed for the Solana blockchain, has recently announced its plan to launch a multi-chain integration with Ethereum and Polygon.

This strategic move is expected to significantly elevate the wallet’s functionalities and expand its user base. With this integration, users will be able to seamlessly switch between the Solana, Ethereum, and Polygon networks, streamlining the management of their assets across different chains. 

Views From the Phantom CEO 

Brandon Millman, the CEO of Phantom, has expressed his enthusiasm for the new multi-chain integration with Ethereum and Polygon. He sees this integration as a significant milestone for both Phantom and the DeFi ecosystem as a whole. 

The integration is expected to make it easier for users to access a wider range of services and applications, and Millman is excited about the impact it will have on the industry. The integration will be launched in the coming weeks and can be accessed through the Phantom wallet app.
