MyEtherWallet (MEW) is a free, open-source, client-side interface for creating and managing Ethereum wallets and interacting with the Ethereum blockchain. It runs entirely in the browser (or as a Chrome extension) so private keys never leave the user's device.
Use cases
- create a new ethereum wallet
- manage ethereum private keys offline
- send ether and erc-20 tokens
- interact with ethereum smart contracts from a browser
- run a self-hosted ethereum wallet interface
- sign transactions without a server
When to choose
- you need a client-side, self-custodial Ethereum wallet you can audit or self-host
- you want to generate wallets or sign transactions without trusting a third-party server
- you prefer a lightweight browser-based tool over a full wallet app
When to avoid
- you need a multi-chain wallet beyond Ethereum and its tokens
- you want custodial features like fiat on-ramps or account recovery handled for you
- you need a mobile-first wallet experience
