Microsoft Edge could soon have a crypto wallet

Barely a month passes by without Microsoft introducing another new feature in its Edge web browser. Just in the past couple of months, Microsoft introduced or launched the Bing Discover button, Super Video Resolution, Microsoft Secure Network, Text Prediction and Microsoft Edge Drop. Some of these features landed in stable versions of Edge, others were introduced to some testers.

Twitter user Albacore discovered the latest feature that Microsoft is working on integrating in the company's Edge web browser: a crypto wallet.

The native feature is a "non-custodial crypto wallet" that offers a simplified experience and "integrated security features" that protect users from insecure addresses or apps, according to Microsoft.

Testers who are selected by Microsoft for the test may create a new wallet or restore a wallet. Microsoft walks them through a series of introductory pages that explains the functionality and sets up everything in the browser.

The feature is managed via the internal edge://wallet/ address. It is currently used in Edge to display Microsoft Rewards points, offers, passwords and memberships. The new crypto wallet is accessed via edge://wallet/crypto, but it needs to be unlocked by Microsoft before it becomes available, even in the latest Microsoft Edge Canary builds.

The crypto space holds a lot of opportunities and we’re yet to access them
