We monitor both tools around the clock for uptime, SSL validity, and response times. Brave Wallet currently has a healthy health status with 100.0% uptime over the last 30 days. Tangem is rated healthy with 100.0% uptime. For any tool you trust with your funds, trades, or yield, uptime and speed are non-negotiable.
