Lightning Speed & Security
Lace is a next-generation light wallet for the Cardano blockchain, delivered as a sleek browser extension. Built by Input Output Global (IOG), the team behind Cardano’s core infrastructure, Lace redefines how users interact with digital assets. Unlike heavy full-node wallets, Lace focuses on speed, security, and a seamless user experience — all without sacrificing self-custody.

NFT Gallery
A visual gallery that displays your Cardano NFTs with metadata and IPFS previews. Send or receive NFTs as easily as tokens.
Multi-network Future
Although Cardano-first, Lace’s roadmap includes support for other UTXO-based chains and sidechains, making it a future-proof hub.
Security & Privacy
Security Focus
Lace employs AES-256 encryption to protect your seed phrase locally. Transactions are signed within the isolated extension environment, ensuring your private keys are never exposed to the internet or third-party servers.
Privacy Focus
We adhere to privacy-by-design principles. Lace does not track your browsing history or wallet activity for advertising. You can create multiple addresses to enhance on-chain privacy, and the extension supports Tor integration for network-level anonymity.
Intuitive UI Design
Experience a seamless interface that prioritizes security and speed. Lace is engineered for the modern user, blending high-tech utility with sleek financial aesthetics.
