What is a self custody wallet?
A self-custody wallet means you fully own your account and the assets within it. You control the keys. Not a bank, exchange, or trading platform.
The biggest advantage is that only you have access to your wallet. Your assets can’t be moved, frozen, or used without your permission. They remain visible and accessible to you at all times, no matter where you are or what’s happening in the world. You’re also free to use your funds however you choose—no daily limits or monthly restrictions.
That freedom comes with responsibility: you're in charge of keeping your assets safe. This primarily means staying on top of your personal digital security.
Why do I need a Republic wallet?
1. Complete Ownership of Your Tokenized Investments
When you invest in a tokenized security on Republic, you receive digital tokens directly into your personal Republic Wallet. These tokens are fully self‑custodied—only you control the private keys associated with them. Republic does not retain custody of those assets, even if they are locked or vesting.
2. Control and Flexibility
With self‑custody, you alone can send, hold, or transfer your tokens—no middleman, no delays, no limits. That means no daily restrictions or holding period constraints outside of vesting rules defined by the offering.
3. Seamless and Integrated Experience
Republic Wallet is built into the investment platform, allowing you to skip creating a separate wallet entirely. After investing in a tokenized offering, assets flow directly into your wallet in a unified interface designed for ease of use—even for first-time crypto users.
4. Designed for Tokenized Assets Regulation
Republic’s broker‑dealer structure ensures compliance with regulatory frameworks (SEC, FINRA). By self‑custodying your tokens, you maintain transparency and regulatory alignment—particularly important for tokenized securities.
What is a wallet?
Wallets allow you to hold, send, and receive digital assets securely on different blockchains.
Every wallet has a public address. Like your mailing address, your public wallet address tells others where to send assets to you. Your public address is safe to share with others.
Every wallet also has a private key. Like your house key, your private key lets you send and spend the assets in your wallet. Your private key should never be shared, and Republic will never ask you for it.
