Cosmostation is a non-custodial, multi-chain wallet that gives users full ownership and responsibility over their assets. Every transaction is signed and controlled directly by the user. Supporting over 120 networks across Cosmos, Ethereum, and Bitcoin, it offers a unified and intuitive way to explore Web3 and manage digital assets.

Designed for both newcomers and experienced users, Cosmostation provides a secure, user-friendly environment for navigating multiple networks. It is also one of the first wallets to support Babylon Genesis native staking (BABY).

Founded in 2018 by Stamper in Seoul, South Korea, Cosmostation has grown from a Cosmos-focused tool into a comprehensive multi-chain wallet built to empower users across the Web3 landscape.

How Cosmostation Wallet Works

Cosmostation Wallet is designed to give users full control of their digital assets across multiple blockchain networks. Built as a non‑custodial, multi‑chain wallet, it empowers users to manage tokens, stake assets, and interact with decentralized applications while maintaining complete ownership of their mnemonics and assets. 

Architecture and Design

Cosmostation Wallet is available as both a mobile app (iOS/Android) and a browser extension, offering a seamless experience for users on the go or working from their desktop. It is built with a focus on accessibility and interoperability, supporting a wide range of networks in the Cosmos ecosystem and beyond. 

The wallet is designed with a user‑first approach ,  making complex blockchain actions like staking or managing IBC assets intuitive for both new and experienced users. 

Key Components

  • Native Staking: Delegate tokens, track rewards, and manage staking (redelegate/undelegate) directly in-app.
  • Token Swaps: Swap tokens via Skip API; non-custodial—users verify all details before confirming.
  • DApp Browser: Access DeFi, NFTs, and on-chain games within the wallet. 
  • Recovery: Restore wallets with mnemonic phrases or private keys on mobile or Chrome extension.
  • Biometric: Unlock and approve transactions with Face ID (iOS) or fingerprint (Android).

Security Features

Cosmostation is a 100% non-custodial wallet, meaning only the users have full control of their funds. All sensitive information, including mnemonics, is securely encrypted and stored on the user’s device using an instant UUID. 

For additional protection, users can enable biometric authentication on mobile. Backup and recovery are handled through secure mnemonic phrases, ensuring users can always regain access to their funds.

Integration with Babylon Genesis

For Babylon Genesis users, Cosmostation provides direct access to BABY staking and governance features, enabling them to participate in securing the network and engaging in on‑chain decision‑making. 

Users can also manage Babylon Genesis assets and interact with the network through both the mobile and extension versions of the wallet. 

How to Use Cosmostation Wallet

Installation

Create or Import a Wallet

On Mobile

  • Create a new account, or import one with mnemonics/private key.
  • New accounts are secured with a 12-, 18-, or 24-word mnemonic. Back it up safely offline.

On Chrome extension

  1. Open the Cosmostation Wallet, agree to terms, and click Start.
  2. Choose Create New Wallet to generate your 12-word mnemonic. Write it down securely and verify it. (12-, 18-, and 24-word phrases are also supported.)
  3. (Optional) Select an HD path (0–9). Default is 0 after creation.
  4. Enter an account name, set a strong password (8+ characters), and click Done.
  1. Search “Babylon” in Networks to view your BABY balance.
  2. Connect your wallet to Babylon Genesis DApps to manage BABY assets.

Fund the Wallet

You can add BABY to your Cosmostation wallet in three ways:

  1. Using a Decentralized Exchange (DEX)
    1. Connect your wallet to a supported DEX (e.g., Tower, Osmosis).
    2. Swap for BABY.
    3. Your BABY balance will appear automatically in your wallet.
  2. Using a centralized exchange (CEX)
    1. Log in to a supported exchange (e.g., Binance).
    2. Buy BABY.
    3. In Cosmostation, copy your BABY wallet address from the “Receive” tab.
    4. Paste the address into the withdrawal field at the CEX.
    5. Set fees: Be aware that exchange withdrawal fees are usually higher than non-custodial wallet fees.
    6. Confirm transfer: Double-check the network, address, amount, and fees, then click Send.
  1. Purchasing with Fiat (On-Ramp)
    1. Currently, Cosmostation Wallet supports online purchases through MoonPay, Kado, and Binance. 

For more information regarding depositing BABY to your BABY wallet address, please also refer to the Cosmostation Mobile Wallet Manual.

Connect to Babylon Genesis

On mobile 

  • Go to the Chains tab and search “Babylon.”
  • If not visible, tap the telescope icon to add manually.

On the web extension wallet

  1. Click the “All Networks” tab.
  2. Search for “Babylon” and select it from the list.

Support Genesis assets or applications

Cosmostation Wallet supports BABY native staking and IBC transfers within the Cosmos ecosystem. It also provides one‑click access to BTC staking directly from the main interface of Babylon Genesis.

Security best practices

  • Protect Your Seed Phrase:

Never share your mnemonic (seed phrase) with anyone. It is the only way to restore your wallet and access your assets. If it is exposed to a third party, they can take full control of your funds without your consent.

  • Beware of Phishing Scams:

Cosmostation does not provide support or consultations via Telegram. Anyone claiming to be Cosmostation staff and asking for your mnemonic is attempting a scam. If you encounter such behavior, end the conversation immediately.

  • Enable Biometric Authentication:

For additional security, enable biometric authentication on the Cosmostation mobile wallet. This allows you to unlock your wallet and sign transactions using Face ID (iOS) or fingerprint recognition (Android).
