what's Skylight Wallet?
Skylight Wallet is a modern, open-source, self-custodial light wallet designed specifically for Monero (XMR), prioritizing user privacy and ease of use on mobile devices. It leverages the Monero Lightweight Server (LWS) protocol for fast syncing without full node requirements, integrates Tor via Arti for anonymous connections (except specific cases like OpenAlias lookups), and supports subaddresses when configured. Developed by MAGIC Grants, a public charity focused on cryptocurrency infrastructure and privacy education, it avoids monetization and relies on donations.
Skylight Wallet is a Tor-first Android light wallet with on-device keys and user-run scanning servers.
Launched as a Tor-first Android light wallet that keeps spending keys on device and requires users to run their own scanning server.
