Phoenix Spotlight: Ethos Quantum V5 Walkthrough

Ethos V5 Quantum Walkthrough: A Quick Guide


We recently just released a Youtube video that covers a walkthrough of how Ethos quantum v5 works!


If you haven't had time to check that out, no worries! Here’s a quick written guide to help you explore the current state of Ethos: V5 Quantum.


Home & Portfolio


When you open the app, you’ll land on the home screen. From here, you can:


  • View your overall portfolio
  • Tap “View All” for a breakdown of each token by percentage
  • Add favorites to create your own token lists


Markets


The Markets screen makes it easy to see what’s moving. You can filter by:


  • Market cap
  • Price change
  • Networks
  • Categories
  • Timeframes


It’s all organized so you don’t need to jump between apps to check price data.


Quick Actions


At the top of the home screen are three simple buttons: Send, Receive, Buy.

This is where you get into the meat and potatoes of trading!


Buying crypto with fiat is done through Circle, which highlights USDC as the easiest way to use Ethos’ gasless transactions.


Through Onramper, you can also purchase and swap into other tokens right away.


Swapping Tokens


Trading is handled in the Swap menu, with two options:


  • Basic Mode: for quick, simple swaps
  • Enhanced Mode: for Ethos token holders, with extra privacy features
  • Choose your tokens, check the quote, then decide between a regular or gasless transaction.


Rewards & Status


Ethos includes built-in ways to reward activity!


  • Quests for completing simple tasks (like setting up security)
  • Tokens earned through trading
  • Emerald status and higher tiers for holding Ethos tokens, which reduce trading fees


Security & Recovery


Managing your wallet should be safe and straightforward. V5 Quantum includes:


  • Social Guardians, who can help veto malicious recovery attempts
  • KeyGuard, which turns recovery into a password-reset style process
  • Multiple storage options for seed phrases and private keys


Staking


Stake ETH directly through RocketPool or Lido inside Ethos — no extra apps or browser tabs. Track rewards and manage your stake right in your wallet.


News Hub and Campaigns


Our News Hub and Campaigns are two features that are currently being worked on and fixed!

  • The News Hub allows for user to check live market data and crypto news directly in the app without needing to leave.
  • Campaigns are how you can earn extra rewards through community promos, partner collaborations, or trading competitions!


More on both coming soon!


Final Note


Ethos V5 Quantum is built to make crypto management easier — whether you’re swapping, staking, or just checking prices.
