# What is Kresus

Kresus is where the highest yields meet the highest safety: a self-custody wallet built on Base and Solana networks, designed to give you full control of your digital assets with ease. We bridge the gap between centralized exchanges and decentralized finance (DeFi), giving you the freedom to manage your assets without the complexities of traditional wallets.

Powered by ERC-4337, Kresus is a smart wallet that uses Account Abstraction to make your blockchain experience more flexible and customizable with custom logic. Through this approach, we can leverage Paymasters to cover for transaction fees, removing the need for users to hold native tokens to pay for gas fees.

Kresus provides hardware-level security without the hardware. While traditional cold or hardware wallets can be secure, they also come with the burden of managing keys and the risk of being lost or locked out. Kresus eliminates that risk by offering the same high level of protection, ensuring that you remain in control of your assets without the possibility of being separated from your wallet at a critical moment.

Kresus is currently mobile-only, available on both the App Store and Google Play Store.

**Fun Fact**

The name "Kresus" is inspired by King Croesus of Lydia, an ancient ruler renowned for his immense wealth. Croesus is often credited with creating the first standardized coins, essentially inventing the concept of fungible currency. His legacy of innovation and prosperity aligns perfectly with our mission to bring greater financial freedom and security to the world of crypto.
