Core is a free, non-custodial browser extension for the Avalanche ecosystem. It is more than a wallet. It is a curated operating system combining a wallet, explorer, bridge, L1s, dApps, and more.

The Core browser extension is currently only officially supported on Chrome. To download Core, please visit this Chrome Store link. For tutorials, support articles, and videos on how to use Core extension, please visit the Core extension collection.
