Phantom emerged as a brainchild of Chris Kalani, Francesco Agosti, and Brandon Millman, who set out to create a native Solana wallet. This non-custodial wallet is designed to seamlessly interact with assets on the Solana blockchain, offering users a convenient way to trade, receive, send, and store their assets securely. For enhanced security, Phantom is compatible with hardware wallets, including Ledger. It is accessible both as a mobile application and a browser extension. In a significant development, Phantom expanded its wallet support to include Polygon and Ethereum in May 2023.
