New home for your crypto kitties and other tokens: Pillar Wallet
The Pillar Project is a project I've been following for over a year now, because I had been desperately waiting for an alternative to MyEtherWallet and MetaMask.
They finally launched their token wallet at the end of 2018 and it's really pretty! :)
This wallet is only the first MVP of a much larger mission: they want to put us - every individual - back in charge of our personal data!
While they are working towards their ultimate vision - The Personal Data Locker - I am already quite happy with the features of the wallet:
- human readable usernames instead of typical wallet addresses
- an address book
- a chat function for your friends and contacts
And as per their very casual announcement in the clip below, you can now also store your collectibles in there (ERC-721 tokens).
So if you need a new home for your crypto kitties, check it out!

Yes! I downloaded this the other day to store my Dent. It is very user friendly. I plan to learn more about Pillar and their plans.
Now, 'collectibles' is a new one on me. What the heck are these?!
LOL the learning just never stops, does it 😄
Collectibles are unique “non-fungible” tokens (NFT’s).
One characteristic of money is that it has to be fungible - so you don’t care which dollar bill or which bitcoin or which gold bar you get - they’re all the same.
Non-fungible tokes are the opposite - they are like digital Mona Lisa’s and only exist once. Which is why you might want to collect them in the hope their value will rise.
If you haven’t heard about crypto kitties, check them out - it’s probably the best example for understanding NFT’s / collectibles at the moment.
