What is the Crypto.com Wallet Extension?
The Crypto.com Wallet Extension is a web browser extension that allows you to easily purchase and swap cryptocurrencies, and seamlessly and securely connect your cryptocurrency wallet to decentralised applications (dapps).

The Crypto.com Wallet Extension and Crypto.com Onchain differ in several ways:
1. The Wallet Extension is a desktop web browser extension, but Crypto.com Onchain is a mobile app.
