Safe (formerly Gnosis Safe) is a blockchain-based platform focused on providing secure and customizable multisig (multi-signature) wallets and asset management solutions for individuals, teams, and decentralized organizations (DAOs). Originally developed by Gnosis, Safe transitioned into an independent project with the support of the SafeDAO and Safe Foundation. Its goal is to enable users to securely store, manage, and access digital assets, ensuring higher security through multisig features and advanced asset management tools.
Safe wallets require multiple private key signatures to authorize transactions, which enhances security by reducing the risk of unauthorized access. This makes it a popular choice for DAOs, institutional investors, and users with significant digital asset holdings who prioritize security. The Safe platform also integrates with a wide range of decentralized finance (DeFi) applications, allowing users to manage their assets across various protocols seamlessly.
The SAFE token is the governance token for the Safe ecosystem. Token holders can participate in decision-making processes through SafeDAO, influencing the development and evolution of the platform. By empowering the community to govern Safe’s roadmap and policies, Safe aims to create a secure, decentralized framework for managing digital assets on Ethereum and other EVM-compatible networks.
