Zano WalletTrust Wallet Doesn't Support Monero — What Are Your Options?
Multi-chain consumer wallets generally do not support privacy coins. Specialist wallets do. Here is the realistic landscape.
Trust Wallet supports Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB Chain, Solana, and dozens of other blockchains — but never Monero, Zcash, or other privacy-focused cryptocurrencies. This is a deliberate scope decision, consistent with multi-chain consumer wallets in general.
For privacy-coin support, you need a different wallet. Multi-chain options that do include privacy coins: Cake Wallet (mobile, includes Monero and Zano). Specialist desktop options: Monero GUI (official Monero), Feather Wallet (lightweight Monero, Tor-by-default), Zano Wallet (Zano chain).
Why multi-chain consumer wallets skip privacy coins
The pattern is consistent across Trust Wallet, Coinbase Wallet, Exodus (since 2024), and most other major multi-chain wallets: privacy coins are either never added or eventually removed. The drivers are regulatory pressure, app store policy (Apple and Google), payment processor requirements, and jurisdictional exposure.
Specialist wallets that focus on a single chain (or a privacy-focused chain set) face less of this pressure because they are not trying to be available everywhere or for everyone. They can take a stance.
Privacy-coin alternatives by form factor
Mobile, multi-chain (closest to Trust Wallet's UX):
Cake Wallet is the credible mobile-multichain wallet that includes privacy coins. It supports Monero, Bitcoin, Litecoin, Solana, Ethereum, and Zano on iOS and Android. Open source, non-custodial, has a 500K+ user base. If you want Trust Wallet's "everything in one app" pattern but with privacy-coin support, this is the answer.
Desktop, single-chain specialist (best for privacy depth):
- Monero GUI for XMR (the official Monero wallet)
- Feather Wallet for XMR (lightweight, Tor-by-default)
- Zano Wallet for ZANO (the privacy chain with Confidential Assets, hidden-amount staking, aliases)
These do not compete with Trust Wallet on chain breadth. They compete on chain depth — each supports its chain better than any multi-chain wallet does.
The choice
If your priority is convenience (one app, many chains), Cake Wallet on mobile is the natural step. If your priority is depth (best support for a privacy chain), pick a desktop specialist.
For users specifically interested in the Zano chain — Confidential Assets, hidden-amount staking, on-chain aliases, atomic swaps — Zano Wallet is the desktop specialist. Same posture as Trust Wallet on the security fundamentals (non-custodial, open source, your seed controls funds) but specialist instead of generalist.
