Summary

Leap Wallet was a non-custodial multi-chain crypto wallet founded in 2021 and backed by $3.2 million from Pantera Capital and CoinFund. Originally built for the Terra ecosystem, it pivoted to Cosmos after Terra's 2022 collapse and grew to support 100+ chains. On April 3, 2026, the team announced permanent cessation of all products effective May 28, 2026, without disclosing a specific reason, creating an eight-week compressed migration window that raised user security concerns.
