-# WalletLabels
-
-WalletLabels is a powerful and user-friendly web app that simplifies searching and identifying Ethereum wallets with custom labels. The application provides an intuitive interface, allowing users to search for wallet addresses by name, label or address. Visit the live website at [https://walletlabels.xyz](https://walletlabels.xyz).
-
-**Note**: This project provides the frontend and backend (API handling) for WalletLabels but does not include the database containing wallet addresses and labels. Users will need to set up their own database when deploying a local version of this project.
