Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Argent

  • Renamed Ready, and argent.xyz now redirects to ready.co, so the Argent name is retired
  • The product has shifted toward community cards and digital dollars rather than being presented purely as a crypto wallet
  • Supported chains are no longer listed on the main site

Zapper
