Create a new wallet

Typhon wallet is currently available for 2 platforms.


1. Web Wallet

2. Extension Wallet

Web Wallet

The web version of Typhon wallet is accessible at https://typhonwallet.io/ using the Access Wallet button. The web version is a safe and secure choice for accessing your Cardano wallet either with mnemonics or hardware wallet on the fly. The web version does not store any of your data, private keys, mnemonics, etc in your browser. You can access multiple wallets by opening the wallet in multiple tabs in this version. The extension version is designed to store your private keys securely in your browser so you can access your wallet without re-entering your seed phrases.


You can go to the link above for accessing the web version and choose the appropriate option to access your wallet or create a new mnemonic seed phrase using the Create Wallet option. 

Extension Wallet

Visit https://typhonwallet.io/#/download and select the browser from the available list. Follow the instructions from the extension store to install the extension. After the Typhon Wallet extension is installed, you can click on the Typhon Wallet icon to open the extension and import or create a new wallet.


You can choose to create a new wallet or import an existing wallet created with other Cardano wallets. If you are using a hardware wallet, select the respective hardware wallet option to connect the device. While creating/importing a wallet, Typhon will ask you for a wallet name and a password to store your keys with encryption in your browser. This allows you to access your wallet securely whenever you want without asking for your seed phrase and allows you to receive funds and view your wallet without connecting your device.


Typhon Wallet extension has a multi-wallet feature, which allows you to add multiple seed phrases and hardware wallets. You can add more wallets by clicking the wallet drop-down on the top left and clicking the `Add New` option.


If the Typhon Wallet icon is not visible in chrome, click the puzzle icon and pin the Typhon Wallet icon for ease of access in the future.
