I think the wallet is quite popular, I came across it on Twitter more than once, and I did download it to check it out, but I don't really use it. Is it safe? Probably, the wallet is backed by investors like Binance labs, Kucoin ventures, MEXC ventures, and many other VCs but given that it's not open source, it's definitely not something I would use to store lifechanging amounts in.
How do we know if a wallet is open source or not?
I found in the footer of the website the words "Open Source" which leads to
their Github page. If they have a claim like that, shouldn't this wallet be open source?

https://github.com/uxuycomI am curious if this UXUY wallet and
this UXUY are the same. I doubt it because
this UXUY is also known as UXlink and they did an airdrop round on Binance web3 a few months ago. I did receive some tokens at that time, but I did not follow up and don't know if they are listed anywhere. But you are probably talking about
this UXUY walletHowever, while writing this post, I figured out both have different websites. one is
https://uxuy.com/ another is
https://www.uxlink.io/This is confusing as F. A lot of crypto newbies will be confused. At first, I thought both of them were the same. I thought since UXUY did an airdrop on Binance web3, they should be safe, without knowing there are multiple UXUY.
Both are different projects, as you mentioned, they both have different websites & of course with different goals. Talking about airdrop, the UXUY I mean in this thread also looks like they will have their own token in the future, I'm really waiting for it because I have collected a lot of points in the application.
