Okto Wallet – Built for Hyperliquid, Ready to Replace the Rest

Bridging sucks. Okto skips it entirely so you can just trade.

If you’ve ever moved assets between blockchains, you know the pain. Bridges, gas fees, long waits, and several transactions. 

It’s clunky. It’s outdated.

Okto Wallet changes that. It’s a chain-abstracted, non-custodial wallet that works across HyperEVM, Ethereum, Solana, Aptos, and more – without any of the usual complexity.

No seed phrases, no switching wallets, and definitely no worrying about which chain you’re on. 

Just a single wallet with a single login, all wrapped up in a smooth, seamless experience.

The real treat is that it gets rid of manual bridging, almost altogether. 

How? Okto uses its own Decentralized Transaction Network (DTN) and Unified Liquidity Layer (ULL) to handle everything behind the scenes. This includes gasless, cross-chain actions, as well as everything Hyperliquid (Futures, Spot, HyperEVM and a direct bridge to HyperEVM).

Sound complex? That’s okay. They’ve taken care of all the technical stuff so that you don’t have to.

This article breaks down what Okto looks like for you, the end user, and how it makes Web3 finally feel simple.

What is Okto?

Okto is a mobile wallet made specifically for the Hyperliquid ecosystem. It’s designed to be the easiest way to trade futures, spot, and use HyperEVM apps – all from your phone.

While some wallets support Hyperliquid via a dApp browser, Okto integrates it natively. That means everything works smoothly right out of the box. 

You don’t need to deal with bridges, browser extensions, or KYC. Just open the app and trade.

Using Okto feels like using a regular Web2 app – fast, simple, and clean – but it’s fully Web3 under the hood. You stay in control of your assets, and you don’t have to deal with the usual crypto headaches.

Okto’s been the first to support new Hyperliquid features every step of the way. 

When Hyperliquid launched futures, Okto had it ready to go. When spot trading dropped, Okto made it available right away. Users ran into problems with HyperEVM apps, and Okto helped fix the experience.

Whether you’re already using Hyperliquid, or just getting started, Okto’s the wallet that makes it all easier. 

One app. Everything Hyperliquid.

What Makes Okto Unique?

Okto makes cross-chain crypto not just easier, but smarter too.

Built on chain abstraction tech, you don’t need to think about switching networks or bridging. You can move assets across 16+ chains with a single tap. No need for separate wallets or juggling networks.

Here’s what makes Okto stand out:

• No gas headaches: Okto handles gas for cross-chain transfers. That stress of not having native tokens across every chain? All gone.
• All-in-one DeFi: You can trade futures, swap tokens, mint NFTs, and stake your coins, all from one app.
• Trade brand new tokens: Want to trade a new token that just got launched? Just copy and paste the contract address, and you can trade it instantly. No need to wait for wallet or exchange integrations.

Okto takes the mess out of Web3 and replaces it with clean, intuitive simplicity – so you can actually enjoy using crypto.

Getting Started with Okto

Getting up and running with Okto is super straightforward. Here’s how I did it:

1. Install the App

Get started by downloading Okto Wallet right from the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store. 

If you want early access or more testing flexibility, there’s also an APK download or an iOS TestFlight version available.

2. Create or Import a Wallet

Once the app’s installed, open it up and you’ll have two main choices: Create a new wallet or import an existing one.

Starting fresh? Okto lets you create a wallet with just your email.

This is made possible by MPC (Multi-Party Computation) tech, which splits your private key into three parts. One stays on your phone, one is stored in your cloud service (Google Drive or iCloud), and one stays with Okto.

Okto can’t access your funds without the other parts, but it means that you can always access your wallet if you have at least one of the other parts. 

It’s secure, non-custodial, and seed phrase-free.

Already have a wallet like MetaMask? No worries. Just import it using your seed phrase, and all your accounts and funds will carry over.

3. Fund Your Wallet

Funding your Okto wallet is just as easy as setting it up:

• If you want to buy some crypto with fiat money, you can use the built-in fiat onramp, via one of the third-party payments providers. Just a heads-up, you’ll need to complete KYC for this option.
  
• You can also simply send crypto from another wallet, as you would with any other wallet. For example, I sent $20 worth of $ETH from my personal wallet straight to my Okto wallet address.

And that’s it! Download the app, create (or import) your wallet, and you’re ready to go. 

Welcome to a smoother Web3.

Okto’s Killer Features

Once you’ve funded your wallet, you can dive in and check out all of Okto’s best features, first-hand.

Here’s some of what I tried out:

1. Cross-Chain Made Easy

With Okto, moving assets between chains is genuinely effortless. 

You can transfer tokens across 16+ supported chains in a single tap, and pay gas in any token you’re already holding. No need for native tokens like $ETH or $BNB. 

Here’s how it went when I tested it out:

I sent $10 of $USDC from Arbitrum to BSC with absolutely zero $ETH or $BNB in either wallet. Gas was just 10 cents, paid in $USDC, and the transfer was done in seconds.

To push it further, I bridged $USDC from BSC to Solana – which isn’t even an EVM chain. 

This one cost a little more (around 46 cents) but it was still fast and seamless, taking a single tap. It showed up in under 30 seconds – amazing.

2. A Mobile Hub for Hyperliquid

Okto isn’t just a wallet – it’s your all-in-one app for everything happening on Hyperliquid.

Whether you’re trading, exploring new projects, or using dApps, Okto brings it all together in a clean, mobile-first experience.

Here’s what makes it stand out:

• Trade Hyperliquid futures on the go: You can open and manage perpetual futures positions right inside the app. No need to go through a browser.
• Spot trading made simple: You can deposit any stablecoin, and it automatically converts to USDC on Arbitrum. That means you’re ready to trade on Hyperliquid instantly, with no manual bridging.
• Built-in HyperEVM support: Okto makes it easy to interact with dApps and smart contracts on HyperEVM. You don’t even have to think about gas or networks – it handles that behind the scenes.
• Access to HypeZone: Discover new projects launching on Hyperliquid through HypeZone, a curated section of the app that helps you stay ahead of the game.

• Earn rewards while you use it: Every action on Okto earns you Okto Points, which count toward airdrops like $HYPE and more.

When I tried it, I deposited $15 from Ethereum (not even Arbitrum) and it landed on Hyperliquid almost instantly. 

I was also able to open a 20x leveraged position in just a few taps – pretty damn smooth! 

The app felt fast, smooth, and perfectly built for mobile.

If you’re using Hyperliquid, or thinking about it, Okto is the easiest way to dive in and do everything from one place.

3. NFTs, Staking, and Browser

Lastly, Okto comes with a built-in NFT wallet, so your collectibles sit right alongside your tokens. 

You can also stake directly from the app and start earning, without dealing with complex DeFi interfaces.

For everything else, there’s a native Web3 browser built in, so you’re not limited to the main integrated features. 

Security First

Okto is designed to feel effortless – but behind the scenes, it doesn’t skimp on security.

Instead of storing your private key in one place (where it could get lost or hacked), Okto uses a special tool called MPC (Multi-Party Computation).

What does MPC do? 

MPC splits your key into three parts, and you need to use two of these parts to log in at any time. 

Okto holds onto a single one, so you can safely use either one of the remaining parts to get into your account. This makes it super easy to recover your account, without giving up safety.

No one – not even Okto – can access your wallet or move your funds on their own.

Behind the scenes, this system is powered by Okto’s Decentralized Wallet Network (DWN), a group of independent nodes around the world that work together to approve and sign your transactions. 

If you’re tech-oriented, here’s a diagram of how the DWN works:

Recovering Your Okto Wallet

If you ever lose your phone and need to recover your wallet, you’ve got options:

1. Use the back-up you’ve stored in Google Drive or iCloud (fully encrypted and only you can access it).
2. Use the 12-word recovery phrase, if you prefer the traditional way.
3. Just export your private key as a whole, whenever you want full control.

So while Okto feels as easy to use as any regular app, the tech behind it is pure Web3. It’s private, secure, and fully in your hands.

Okto’s Future

Okto’s just getting started, and things are already moving fast.

The Okto testnet is live, giving users a first look at the Okto Chain in action. This is the backbone of the platform, handling everything from cross-chain transactions, to smart account management, and delegated signing behind the scenes.

Hyperliquid Spot Trading is also live, bringing fast, deep liquidity for spot trades. This will all be baked directly into the Okto app, with the same smooth experience you’ve come to expect.
