Lesson 22: What Is Binance Web3 Wallet?
Lesson Intro:
The world’s largest crypto exchange, Binance, entered into a collaboration agreement with our nonprofit, the Prison Professors Charitable Corporation. With this collaboration, we’re able to provide justice-impacted people with a great resource they can use to learn about cryptocurrency, decentralized finance (DeFi), Web3.0, Artificial Intelligence, and other topics that relate to the digital economy. The agreement is part of our nonprofit’s ongoing efforts to help people prepare for success after prison.
Some people have access to our videos, others do not. If a staff member in your prison will authorize videos, invite them to contact Prison Professors for information on how we can send DVDs with additional educational materials to help people learn–and potentially an in-person presentation in your facility.
Each lesson includes critical thinking questions and a glossary. We encourage participants to use these lessons, and to memorialize their learning path by building a profile on Prison Professors Talent. More information on how to build a personal profile at the end of this workbook.
22. What Is Binance Web3 Wallet?
TL;DR
- The Binance Web3 Wallet is an innovative wallet for digital assets that combines convenience, security, and utility.
- The wallet offers enhanced security through Multi-Party Computation (MPC) technology and a seamless user experience with access to Binance Bridge and other service providers, facilitating token swaps across different blockchain networks.
- Users can explore the world of decentralized finance (DeFi) and decentralized applications (DApps) while also counting on dedicated 24/7 customer support.
What Is Binance Web3 Wallet?
The Binance Web3 Wallet, an integral part of the Binance app, is a user-focused cryptocurrency wallet that empowers users in the realm of decentralized finance (DeFi).
With the Binance Web3 Wallet, users can easily access the world of blockchain and decentralized applications (DApps). The wallet provides a safe and efficient way for users to manage their digital assets, perform token swaps across different blockchain networks, earn yields, and much more.
How Does It Work?
Binance Web3 Wallet uses Multi-Party Computation (MPC) technology, which is an enhanced cryptographic security system that eliminates the need to store your private keys in a single location. The wallet uses MPC to create three “key-shares”, which are stored separately in your Web3 Wallet, cloud storage, and your device. The key-shares are also protected by your recovery password, which is solely known to you.
Key Features of the Binance Web3 Wallet
Easy to use
You can create a Binance Web3 Wallet in just a few seconds through the Binance app. Unlike other crypto wallets, with the Binance Web3 Wallet setup you don’t have to worry about seed phrases or private keys, making it much easier to use.
Convenience
Seamlessly connected to Binance Bridge and other service providers, the Binance Web3 Wallet facilitates easy token swaps across different blockchain networks while also ensuring the best rates and prices. Users can also explore DApps and generate yield with just a few clicks.
Security
The Binance Web3 Wallet offers important security features, including wrong address protection, and identification of potentially malicious smart contracts. When making transactions, the wallet will notify users when a token or blockchain carries a potential security risk. In addition, every transaction is controlled by Multi-Party Computation (MPC) technology, reducing the risk of single points of failure and ensuring the safety of your assets.
Self-custody
Encrypted by three “key-shares” and a recovery password exclusively known to the user, the Web3 Wallet allows complete autonomy over your assets.
Customer Support
Users can count on a 24/7 customer support service to ensure a safe and smooth experience.
How to Use the Binance Web3 Wallet

How to Backup Your Binance Web3 Wallet

Advocacy Initiative:
We encourage participants to begin memorializing the ways they are using time in prison to prepare for success upon release. I encourage participants to create a personal profile by:
- Writing a simple biography
- Writing a daily journal to show all that you’re learning
- Writing book reports that memorialize the books you read
- Writing a release plan to show the ways you’re preparing for success upon release
These strategies helped me immensely once I got out. By using my time wisely inside, I was able to raise capital, build businesses, and succeed in ways that few people would think are possible for someone who served multiple decades in prison. Anyone can do the same—if they prepare first.
If you’d like to follow in the same footsteps, I encourage you to begin building your personal profile. Get started by sending an email message to our team at:

Our interns will accept your email invite. You may then send the interns a message such as:
Dear Interns,
My name is xxx, and I am in prison. I would like to begin showing the strategies I am using to prepare for success upon release. Please send me a Release Plan Workbook, and any other books that will help me prepare for the job market. After receiving those workbooks, I will begin building my profile to show others how I am using my time inside to prepare for success outside.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]
