[**Argent**](https://twitter.com/argentHQ) is a **Self Custody** **Starknet** mobile wallet. **Argent** gives you control over three core components:

*   `Identity` - **Grant Dapps access to your identity and data, revoking it whenever** you want
    
*   `Assets` - **Safely hold and use your crypto assets**
    
*   `Trust` - **Ensure trusted and secure interactions with dApps and other users**
    

One of the unique features of the Argent mobile wallet is its focus on security and ease of use. **Argent** has raised a total of [**$56m in funding**](https://www.crunchbase.com/search/funding_rounds/field/organizations/funding_total/argent).

**Argent is backed by:**

*   [**PARADIGM**](https://twitter.com/paradigm) - research-driven technology investment firm
    
*   [**INDEX VENTURES**](https://twitter.com/IndexVentures) - venture capital firm, investing in technology-enabled companies with a focus on e-commerce, fintech, mobility, gaming, infrastructure/AI, and security
    
*   [**CREANDUM**](https://twitter.com/creandum) - leading early-stage VC firm backing Europe’s most successful tech companies
    

ᗯᕼᗩT ᖴOᖇ?! 🧐

For most of users name **Argent** is associated with the [**Starknet**](https://twitter.com/Starknet). Right now rivalry is the way too high, because there's another wallet that is associated with the **Starknet** - [**Braavos**](https://twitter.com/myBraavos). And why should users prefer **Argent** instead of the **Braavos**?

**_P.S. Just don’t confuse Argent X with Argent mobile_**

> But as they say - **_on taste and color_**... 😎
