Safe Wallet
Safe (formerly Gnosis Safe) is the industry-standard multi-signature smart account protocol, deployed on HyperEVM for DAOs, protocols, and teams that require shared treasury management and governance security. Safe smart accounts require M-of-N approval from designated signers before executing transactions, preventing single points of failure in protocol treasury management. For Hyperliquid ecosystem protocols managing significant TVL, Safe provides battle-tested smart account infrastructure with support for spending policies, transaction batching, and module-based extensibility. Safe's ecosystem includes integrations with hardware wallets, mobile apps, and governance tools—enabling comprehensive secure operations for on-chain teams. With over 00B in assets secured historically and an extensive security audit record, Safe is the default choice for any Hyperliquid project that handles collective funds or needs robust multi-party governance over protocol upgrades and treasury operations.
