"I thought I was using Bitcoin freely, but in reality it only took one transaction for a third party to decide what I was 'allowed' to do with my own money."

Our CEO Vikrantnyc on how getting his Coinbase account closed in 2015 for buying antibiotics led to the creation of Cake Wallet 🎂

Need to hit the store but want to spend crypto? Here's the move:

Grab a gift card through Cake Pay (Debit Card, Target, Starbucks, etc.), pull it up on your phone, and use it at checkout. That simple.

Crypto → gift card → real-world shopping. No banks involved. 💳✨

December = gifts, gatherings, expenses piling up.

If you've got crypto, you can turn it into Amazon, Starbucks,, and countless other gift cards. No hoops to jump through.

👉 Cake Pay in the app or cakepay.com

New: Duress PIN 🚨

This has been requested for years. Set a secondary PIN that looks normal but actually wipes your wallet entirely in an emergency. It's a safety feature we hope you never need, but we're glad it's there. Enable it in "Security and backup"

Cake Wallet v5.6 is here 🎂✨

We rebuilt how your wallet stores data—faster loading, smoother wallet switching, rock-solid stability, and better backups. This upgrade also includes MWEB for Cupcake, duress pin, and more! Update now and feel the difference👇

Litecoin MWEB support is now live in Cupcake!

Combine Litecoin's privacy features with air-gapped offline signing for maximum security. We're the first team ever to ship fully functioning offline signing for an MWEB wallet—and we were first with mobile MWEB support too.

Our dev David just got back from BTrust Developer Day in Mauritius 🇲🇺

Cake Wallet got recognized during a talk on Silent Payments, we're the first mobile wallet in the world to ship it.

Proud to be pushing privacy forward 🤝
