Alternatives to OneKey
Open-source hardware and software wallet
OneKey ranks #1 of 12 in Hardware wallets, with an Alt Score of 93. It is licensed under GPLv3 (firmware); companion apps under OneKey Source License v1.1 (non-OSI), sold as a one-time purchase from $79 and available on Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, Web and Browser extension. 12 of 12 checklist rows are verified against a public source.
Crypto holders who want self-custody cold storage they can inspect and trust — from budget-conscious beginners who want a simple, portable USB device to power users managing multi-chain portfolios who want an air-gapped, Bluetooth-capable device with a full touchscreen for verifying every transaction.
A physical hardware wallet (Classic 1S or Pro, from $79) built on EAL 6+ certified secure elements, plus a free companion app available on Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, and as a browser extension. The app manages 30,000+ cryptocurrencies across 20+ blockchains, with open-source GPLv3-licensed firmware you can audit on GitHub.
You set up the device and generate a seed phrase (optionally layered with a passphrase for a hidden wallet, or SLIP39/Shamir backup on Pro), then connect it to the OneKey app or third-party software wallets like MetaMask via USB, Bluetooth, or air-gapped QR/NFC signing (Pro). Every transaction is displayed in full on the device's own screen for you to verify before you approve it, so private keys never leave the hardware.
