Fuse is built on smart accounts, which is why it is called a “smart” wallet. Smart accounts bring programmability to Fuse and unlock personalized control over your digital assets.

Light Accounts vs Smart Accounts

Traditional wallets, such as Phantom and Backpack, are built on light accounts that are limited to basic storage and transaction capabilities. These accounts are secured by private keys, rely on seed phrases for recovery, and are non-programmable.

Smart accounts revolutionize the static nature of accounts, transforming them into programmable tools capable of executing custom logic. They enable wallets purpose-built for specific use cases, shifting the industry from a one-size-fits-all custody model to one based on programmability and personalization.

Smart accounts address existing pain points, such as reliance on seed phrases, and unlock new capabilities, including multi-signature features, two-factor authentication (2FA), gas abstraction, time locks, key rotation, and spending limits. These advancements culminate in a more secure and user-friendly experience for managing digital assets.

A New Security Standard

Fuse leverages Solana’s smart account standard (Squads Protocol), which secures over $10 billion in value. With Fuse, every user gets access to the same smart account technology trusted by Solana’s leading applications, teams, and institutions.
