What is Wrapped ALGO (XALGO)?
Wrapped ALGO (XALGO) is a digital asset that mirrors the value of ALGO on the Solana blockchain.

This provides users with the flexibility to leverage ALGO within the Solana ecosystem, gaining advantages like quick transactions and low fees.
What is a Wrapped ALGO wallet?
A Wrapped ALGO wallet safeguards the private keys needed to handle your XALGO addresses. While it doesn't hold physical XALGO, it facilitates interaction with the blockchain where your cryptocurrency is recorded. The wallet's core role is to generate and secure these private keys, enabling users to send, receive, and manage XALGO efficiently.
How does a Wrapped ALGO wallet work?
Wrapped ALGO wallets function by utilizing a combination of public and private keys to manage blockchain accounts. The private key offers access to a specific XALGO account and must be kept safe, while the public key can be shared for receiving XALGO.
