Omni vs Phantom

Overview

Wallets are an essential tool for navigating Web3. You cannot avoid having a wallet but with so many of them out there, researching which one is the right option for you can get tedious. Here is the comparison of the Omni wallet vs. the Phantom wallet against factors that matter most to Web3 users. 

What is Omni?

Omni is a mobile-first super wallet that brings everything Web3 users need to manage their assets across all major chains, from EVMs, to non-EVMs, and all major L2s. You can also manage your NFTs across major chains on top of being able to swap, bridge and stake in record speed, all in one place. On top of that, Omni is one of the most secure self-custodial wallets in the market, allowing you to even import your Ledger for maximum safety.

What is Phantom?

Phantom is a top-ranking Solana wallet, known for its ease in accessing Solana-based dApps. You might have noticed that the Solana-first dApps and the Solana ecosystem keeps its integration to wallets that are Solana-first. Users find much value in Solana-based wallets like Phantom preciously for that reason.

What are the services that Omni and Phantom offer?

Although both Omni and Phantom are self-custodial wallets, these apps provide different value to users. You will begin to see the differences when you consider what the two wallets are trying to achieve with their services. While Omni is a multi-chain wallet that provides a vast range of DeFi, NFT, and general Web3 services, Phantom is more focussed on developing management of funds for Solana and connecting with Solana dApps.

Omni's competing feature: Multi-chain experience

Omni was designed to provide you with a range of features and functionalities that are extremely simple so that you can spend more time doing the things that are actually important: Experiencing Web 3. This is why, no matter what chain you are on, your staking experience with any token will be the same 3-tap flow. Whether it be staking, liquid staking or even depositing in a yield vault, Omni's 3-tap signature flow allows you to focus more on earning rather than consistently adapting to different earning infrastructure to get your DeFi work done.

The future of Web3 is multi-chain. With the developments of cross-chain interactivity and with different chains bringing powerful Web3 innovations to users, multi-chain interactions are increasing. Whether you want to play your favorite game using BNB, hop to a lending platform to deposit your SOL or find the hottest Ethereum NFTs on Opensea, you only need to use one multi-chain wallet like Omni to fulfill your Web3 fun.

Phantom

Phantom was built with the innate idea of making wallet use very easy. Although Phantom provides a comprehensive suite of services, it is still focussed on Solana blockchain, preventing users interested in multi-chain interactions from getting the full Web3 experience. As the Web3 space continued to develop, users now can participate in a comprehensive range of activities in a range of chains. From trading NFTs on Stargaze, to accessing cloud computing in Akash, to playing hot games on Solana and BNB, we need flexibility in manoeuvring across chains. Although Phantom is great for managing your Solana-based tokens and connecting with dApps across its supported ecosystems, if you want to experience the full breadth of Web3, you will need Omni to enjoy full access.
