Zengo Wallet vs Safe{Wallet}
A practical look at custody, recovery, and documented security differences. We do not merge unlike wallet types into one score.
Zengo Wallet
Consumer MPC/TSS mobile wallet
The MPC/TSS design and recovery workflow are materially different from seed wallets; resilience depends on preserving recovery factors and accepting a provider-service dependency.
- Custody:
- Self Custody
- Role:
- Consumer Wallet
- Recovery:
- Recover on a new device using the documented recovery factors; losing the device and required recovery factors can result in loss of access

Safe{Wallet}
User-facing multisig smart wallet
Safe{Wallet} is a smart-contract multisig interface rather than a conventional hot wallet; its resilience and usability depend on the configured owner policy and surrounding infrastructure.
- Custody:
- Self Custody
- Role:
- Multisig Wallet
- Recovery:
- Loss of one owner device may be survivable when the remaining owner threshold is available; exact outcome depends on the configured owners and threshold
