Espresso (ESP), yours to hold and swap

What makes Zypto the right place for your Espresso (ESP)

Most Espresso wallets do one thing: hold ESP. Zypto App is a full DeFi wallet built for actually using it. Hold ESP non-custodially on the Multichain network, swap into 24,000+ assets across 20+ chains via in-app DEX integrations, connect to dApps with WalletConnect, and use the value through the Zypto Premium Visa Card and Zypto's bill-pay and gift-card surfaces.

Whether you're new and looking for your first Espresso wallet app or your first ESP wallet, or an experienced DeFi user who wants one wallet for holding, swapping and real-world spending, Zypto is built for both, without sacrificing self-custody.

New to Espresso? Start here with the right ESP wallet

New to Espresso? You don't need an exchange account to get a wallet. Download Zypto App, generate your recovery phrase, and you have a working ESP wallet in under a minute. Add your first ESP by receiving from another wallet, or by buying in-app where supported.

Your Espresso is secured by you

Zypto App is non-custodial. Your private keys are generated and stored on your device, Zypto never has access to your ESP and every transaction is signed locally. For account access, every user sets a PIN with optional biometric security (fingerprint or face recognition). You can also filter your wallet to show only verified tokens, protecting you from random airdrops or unsafe assets. For offline hardware wallet security, pair with the Vault Key Card, card-based cold-wallet hardware that signs transactions over NFC, keys never touch the internet.

What is Espresso?

Espresso is a decentralized shared sequencer and confirmation layer for rollups. Most Layer-2 networks today rely on a single, centralized sequencer to order transactions, which creates concentration risk and leaves chains isolated from one another. Espresso lets multiple rollups share one decentralized sequencing layer, giving fast, credible confirmations and easier communication between chains. The network uses a Byzantine fault tolerant protocol where validators stake the ESP token to take part in ordering transactions and confirming blocks across the rollups it serves. ESP is used for staking, delegating to validators, and paying protocol fees, and it secures the network through proof-of-stake. Espresso Systems was built by a team of cryptographers and engineers, reached mainnet in 2024, and the ESP token launched in early 2026, making this a newer asset to weigh accordingly. You can follow the Espresso price and hold ESP in a self-custody wallet.
