Use Elbaite to buy bitcoin, ETH and stablecoins directly to your Halo Wallet while keeping full control of your wallet and avoiding extra withdrawal fees on exchanges.
Non‑custodial wallet from the team behind KuCoin Wallet.
Halo Wallet is a non‑custodial wallet that lets you hold your own assets and sign transactions directly on the networks it supports. It is designed for users who want more control than a centralised exchange account can provide.
When you create a Halo Wallet wallet you generate private keys that control one or more blockchain addresses. Those keys stay on your device, not on an exchange. To receive crypto you share a public address; to send crypto you sign a transaction with your keys and broadcast it to the network. Because you stay in control of the keys, you are responsible for backing up your recovery phrase and keeping your devices secure.
Halo Wallet gives you direct control over your funds while still making it straightforward to connect to the apps and ecosystems it supports. That combination of convenience and control is why many self‑custody traders, long‑term holders and Web3 users choose it as one of their main wallets.
Many Halo Wallet users start by buying crypto on a centralised exchange and then paying a separate withdrawal fee just to send funds to their wallet address. This two‑step flow adds extra cost and leaves your assets sitting in an exchange account that you do not fully control while you wait to withdraw.
Elbaite is designed as a direct‑to‑wallet P2P onramp so you can buy crypto for your Halo Wallet wallet in one flow from your bank account in USD. Instead of holding a balance for you, Elbaite acts as a marketplace. You fund your Elbaite account with USD, choose an offer from a verified seller in the marketplace and pay with your USD. The USD is held safely in escrow while the seller sends the crypto directly to the Halo Wallet address you select. Once the blockchain confirms that the crypto has arrived in your wallet, Elbaite releases the USD from escrow to the seller.
Because Elbaite never takes custody of your crypto, your Halo Wallet wallet remains the place where balances live from the moment the trade completes. You avoid holding assets on an exchange account, reduce the need to pay separate withdrawal fees, and keep your funds under your own control. For self‑custody traders and Web3 users, this direct‑to‑wallet flow is an easy way to fund Halo Wallet on Ethereum, BNB Chain and other EVM networks supported by Halo Wallet. while staying aligned with how self‑custody is meant to work.
Before you fund Halo Wallet with Elbaite, make sure your wallet is set up correctly. Install the official app or browser extension, create a new wallet or import an existing one, and back up your recovery phrase safely offline.
Create and verify your Elbaite account so you can use it as your fiat to crypto onramp. Sign up with your email and basic details, then complete the required identity verification steps so Elbaite can meet its compliance obligations.
In Halo Wallet, copy the wallet address you want to fund. In Elbaite, add a new wallet address entry and paste your Halo Wallet address. Give it a clear label so you can recognise it later. If you use Halo Wallet on multiple networks, create separate address book entries for each network you plan to fund.
Add USD to your Elbaite account using one of the available funding methods. The USD you add will be used to pay sellers in the marketplace and is held securely in escrow for each trade.
Go to the marketplace, choose the asset you want to buy and filter offers that allow delivery to Halo Wallet. Select an offer that fits your size and price, review the quote and confirm the trade. Pay for the trade with the USD in your Elbaite account.
The seller sends the purchased crypto directly to the Halo Wallet address you selected. Elbaite monitors the blockchain and waits for the required number of confirmations.
Once the transaction is confirmed on‑chain, Elbaite marks the trade as complete and releases the USD from escrow to the seller. The first thing that is always confirmed is that your Halo Wallet wallet has received the crypto.
When your wallet balance updates, you are ready to use your Halo Wallet funds – whether that is trading, using DeFi, minting NFTs or simply holding your assets in self custody. Whenever you need more crypto in Halo Wallet, repeat the same flow with Elbaite.
