History
Trust Wallet was founded in 2017 by Ukrainian developer Viktor Radchenko, a Ukrainian software developer with a background in cybersecurity and mobile applications.[3] Trust Wallet was developed as a mobile wallet for storing ERC-20 and ERC-223 tokens on the Ethereum blockchain. As the cryptocurrency ecosystem grew, the wallet added support for additional blockchains and digital assets, including Solana, non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and allowed users to interact with decentralized applications.[4]
In July 2018, Binance acquired Trust Wallet.[5][6][7][3]
In 2022, Radchenko stepped down from his role to pursue other ventures.[3] Following his departure, Eowyn Chen was appointed CEO of Trust Wallet.[8]
In December 2025, Trust Wallet Chrome extension was hacked, and as a result, users lost $7 million in funds due to seed phrase compromise.[9]
