We are thrilled to announce that MAGIC Grants has approved a grant
from the MAGIC Firo Fund to integrate Firo, a leading privacy-preserving
cryptocurrency, with the Enkrypt wallet. The integration work will be spearheaded by BlockStars, a renowned web3 development company. This collaboration will include full support for Spark, enhancing the usability and accessibility of
Firo within a multi-chain ecosystem. We expect the work to take about 3
months.

Elevating Privacy and Accessibility with Enkrypt

The integration of Firo into Enkrypt wallet marks a significant
milestone in our mission to provide users with seamless and secure
access to privacy-focused financial solutions. Enkrypt is not just
another crypto wallet; it’s a true multichain browser extension wallet
developed by MyEtherWallet.
With support for over 70 natively integrated chains—including Ethereum,
Bitcoin, Solana, and many more—Enkrypt offers a unified platform for
managing diverse digital assets.

manage their Firo holdings alongside other cryptocurrencies, all within a
single, user-friendly platform.

Full Spark Support

The integration will include comprehensive support for Spark, Firo’s
innovative protocol that enhances privacy. This means users will enjoy
all the benefits of Spark directly within the Enkrypt wallet, including
