Can you tell me more about each new coin?

Sure ;) Each of these coins has its unique characteristics and use cases. Here's a brief overview:

Ethereum (ETH): Ethereum is a blockchain platform that allows developers to build decentralized applications (dApps). Its native cryptocurrency, ETH, is used to pay transaction fees and to incentivize miners to secure the network. It is the second-largest coin by market capitalization after Bitcoin.
Solana (SOL): Solana is a blockchain platform that uses a unique consensus mechanism called Proof of History to enable faster and cheaper transactions. It aims to offer a scalable and decentralized infrastructure for building applications. Its native coin, SOL, is used to pay transaction fees and to incentivize validators to secure the network.
Cardano (ADA): Cardano is a blockchain platform that aims to offer a more secure and sustainable infrastructure for building applications. It uses a proof-of-stake consensus mechanism, designed to be more energy-efficient than Bitcoin's proof-of-work mechanism. Its native coin, ADA, is used to pay transaction fees and to incentivize validators to secure the network.
USD Coin (USDC): USD Coin is a stable coin pegged to the US dollar. It is used to facilitate transactions on the blockchain, and its value is designed to remain relatively stable compared to other cryptocurrencies. USD Coin is an ERC-20 token that runs on the Ethereum blockchain.
Celo Dollar (cUSD): Celo is a mobile-first blockchain platform prioritizing accessibility and inclusivity. Celo Dollar (cUSD) is a stablecoin pegged to the US dollar that enables fast and low-cost transactions. It can be used for various financial activities on the Celo platform, and you can earn rewards by staking cUSD or other Celo-based assets.
Tether Gold (XAUt): Tether Gold (XAUt) is a stablecoin backed by gold. Each XAUt token is backed by one troy ounce (31.1035 grams) of gold held in a vault in Switzerland. XAUt is issued by Tether, the same company that issues USDT, another stablecoin pegged to the United States dollar.
Polygon (MATIC): MATIC is the native cryptocurrency token of the Polygon network, formerly known as the Matic Network. Polygon is a Layer 2 scaling solution for Ethereum, designed to address scalability issues and high transaction fees on the Ethereum blockchain. The Matic token serves several purposes within the Polygon ecosystem.
Pay Pal USD (PYUSD): PYUSD, also known as PayPal USD, is a stablecoin launched by the global payment services provider PayPal. As the financial world gradually shifts towards embracing digital currencies, PYUSD stands out as a noteworthy innovation, combining the stability of traditional fiat currency with the versatility of cryptocurrency.

Is my Yellow card wallet safe?

At Yellow Card, we prioritize the security of our customers’ funds and data, and we offer several security features to ensure the safety of your wallet. Our platform supports passwords, PIN codes, and two-factor authentication (2FA) as possible solutions.

Passwords: A password is a string of characters you create to secure your account. We recommend using a strong and unique password that is not easily guessable. You can change your password at any time to ensure that your account remains secure.

PIN Code: A PIN code is a numeric code that you can use to access your account. This is an additional layer of security that you can enable to help prevent unauthorized access to your wallet. Two-Factor Authentication

(2FA): 2FA is a security measure that requires you to provide two forms of identification to access your account. This could be a combination of a password and a verification code sent to your mobile device. We strongly encourage our customers to use these security features to keep their wallets safe. By using a combination of these solutions, you can significantly reduce the risk of unauthorized access to your account.
