Is the built-in wallet open source? If not then avoid using it. Remember what Andreas Antonopoulos always says: "not your keys, not your bitcoins".

I tried looking it up but there's no "open-source" reference to it anywhere on DuckDuckGo. I doubt it's open-source too. It looks like they do not have KYC though for now, which is good news. <...>

Thanks for the info. Well, that's a big red flag. I already posted some of the shady practices Opera have incurred recently, god knows what could happen if you decide to store (hodl) your crypto in this built-in wallet.

It looks like the way Opera uses for revitalizing their audience and attracting a narrower blockchain community.

Just like they wanted to attract new users a few years ago with their built-in VPN (especially those from the "privacy" community) but the whole thing failed miserably because the VPN is nothing but garbage Roll Eyes
