# Self-Custodial Wallets

A self-custodial wallet means that you are the sole custodian of your assets. Unlike custodial services, Toxi’s setup ensures that only you have control over your private keys, meaning no one else—including Toxi—has access to your funds.

• Your Private Key, Your Control: Toxi stores your private keys securely on your device, keeping your assets under your full control at all times. You can always export your private key and access it through any other self-custodial wallet, like Phantom and Solflare.

• Decentralized Trading: Using Toxi’s self-custodial model, you participate directly in the Solana network, with no intermediaries handling your funds.

> Make sure to keep your private key safe as loosing it or sharing with 3rd parties may result in a stolen funds.&#x20;
