HONG KONG, China, April 15th, 2026/Chainwire/-- Mixin , the leading self-custodial privacy wallet with built-in encrypted messaging, has integrated Coinbase Onramp (Fiat-to-Crypto). This integration enables users to seamlessly purchase cryptocurrency with fiat currency directly inside the Mixin app in as little as 60 seconds. Solving Web3’s Biggest Barrier: Onboarding Complexity Despite the multi-trillion dollar growth of the cryptocurrency industry, the "onboarding and entry" process remains the single biggest barrier to mainstream adoption. Complex seed phrases, confusing gas fees, and fragmented cross-chain experiences continue to frustrate newcomers. Mixin addresses these challenges by combining a simplified user experience with secure self-custody and seamless fiat access. Key Highlights 1. Onboarding as Simple as Social Media Mixin eliminates traditional “seed phrase anxiety” with a streamlined, seconds-long registration process. Users can get started without the burden of manual seed phrase backup or verification. While maintaining full self-custody, Mixin delivers a smooth, Web2-like experience that matches top-tier consumer apps. 2. Seamless Fiat-to-Crypto with Institutional-Grade Infrastructure Through its integration with Coinbase Onramp, Mixin enables users to purchase crypto directly within the app using fiat currencies. Eligible users can complete transactions via Apple Pay, bringing a familiar Web2-level payment experience into Web3. Compliance & Security: All identity verification (KYC) and payment processing are handled by Coinbase Privacy Protection: Mixin does not store sensitive personal or payment data Transparent Pricing: Mixin covers transaction spreads (up to $20), ensuring users receive the full value of their purchase — “Pay $100, get $100 in crypto.” 3. Gas-Free, Multi-Chain Experience Mixin supports major blockchain networks, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and BNB Chain, enabling seamless cross-chain interactions. Unified Wallet Management: Manage up to 99 wallets in one interface Gas Fee Optimization: Users enjoy 100% gas fee rebates on transfers between imported wallets.

Messaging Meets Self-Custodial Finance By integrating end-to-end encrypted messaging based on the Signal Protocol, Mixin enables users to send crypto as easily as sending a message. This approach reduces the risk of address errors while making crypto transfers more intuitive and accessible.
