- Gemini launches Wallet and Onchain Dashboard expanding DeFi access.
- Focus on simplifying wallet usability and user onboarding.
- Significant partnership with Blockaid for user security.
Gemini, co-founded by Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, launched the Gemini Wallet and Onchain Dashboard today, August 14, 2025, to enhance DeFi and Web3 access globally from its New York base.
This launch aims to simplify wallet usability, stimulate mass onboarding, and marks Gemini’s major shift since its IPO filing, potentially affecting key cryptocurrencies and market dynamics.
Immediate Effects
The immediate effects of Gemini’s launch are felt across several industries. Gemini’s decision to cover gas fees during initial onboarding seeks to lower user entry barriers significantly.
Gemini’s initiative holds considerable financial implications, particularly in enhancing cross-chain trading and DeFi yields. Notable tokens involved include ETH, ARB, and assets through WalletConnect-compatible apps.
Industry Influence
Industry experts believe Gemini’s strategic rollout will influence centralized exchanges and push further DeFi adoption. It could result in increased liquidity in the DeFi space and promote a seamless user experience.
Historical trends suggest that similar launches from exchanges like Coinbase have led to significant market shifts. Data and analysis hint at possible short-term increases in total value locked (TVL) and heightened activity across L2 solutions.
“We’ve built a first in class self custody wallet that unlocks DeFi and Web3 for every crypto user across the globe. A fully embedded experience powered by passkeys. Meet the Gemini Wallet.” — Cameron Winklevoss, Co-Founder, Gemini
