## Daedalus Reviews
  ### 1. The open source wallet for ada, built to grow with the Cardano blockchain.

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kody L. | Associate, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**What do you like best about Daedalus?**

I like that I am supporting the Cardano project while simultaneously ensuring the highest level of security for my tokens aside from utilizing a hardware wallet. I plan to also try Yoroi for staking in the future but the Daedalus full-node wallet has some positive and negative comparisons to Yoroi for a few reasons.

**What do you dislike about Daedalus?**

Daedalus loading interface could use work. It sometimes appears that there is a connection issue when in reality, the user needs to wait a few minutes longer. Additionally, the loading time to find a stake pool recommendation when adjusting the slider to factor in your intended quantity of ADA to stake is quite long. For me, it can take up to 1-2 minutes.

**Recommendations to others considering Daedalus:**

First, decide if you even can run a full-node like Daedalus on your setup. If not, use Yoroi to stake your ADA. Additionally, ensure that you safely store your 24-word recovery phrase provided to you by Daedalus.

**What problems is Daedalus solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I am supporting the Cardano Blockchain and securing my ADA by keeping it off of an exchange and in a protected wallet. Additionally, I benefit by staking, which allows me to grow my investment.

  ### 2. Daedalus is a high-security wallet that fully implements the Cardano protocol

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Olivia B. | Bitcoin Miner, Computer Software, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 27, 2019

**What do you like best about Daedalus?**

Encrypted private key and password placement that together protect against malicious software security threats from your digital assets.

**What do you dislike about Daedalus?**

Lack of functionality such as setting up duplicate payments or exchanging base code currencies.

**Recommendations to others considering Daedalus:**

Daedalus ensures that private keys are user-controlled and will never be stored outside the user's system.

**What problems is Daedalus solving and how is that benefiting you?**

At the moment, it only supports ADA tokens, so the time of support for other currencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum is not specified in this wallet.
