Turns out most people use a bitcoin wallet the same way they'd use any wallet:

To hold their own money and spend it on their own terms.

Our new report with Global Digital Finance and Block, in partnership with TRM Labs and Coinbase, shows this in the data — and it's why we're building Bitkey for you:

True ownership of your money, no middleman holding your keys.

Pick @Cash App in Bitkey and you'll pay zero trading fees and zero spread, so more of your money turns into sats.

Zero-fee buying is nice, but liquidity and counterparty risk matter too—especially after reading how Saylor’s $64B BTC bet hinges on institutional-grade custody. Retail stacking sats is different than corporate HODL. https://theboard.world/articles/strategys-64bn-bitcoin-bet-the-warning-and-w...

Most wallets stop at setup. Bitkey is built for everything after.

Bitkey builds recovery, inheritance, and on-device verification in from the start.

No seed phrase. No subscription.

it would be cool if it allowed at least timelocking. I feel having the two keys together can make you a 5 wrench attack target.

it’d be great to see advanced features like coin control, ability to select the utxo for payment.

And no lightning address…

Self-custody used to mean “don’t make a mistake.” Bitkey assumes you will.

The new screen verifies recovery, inheritance, and security changes — not just transactions.

That’s what full protection actually looks like.

stl1988 · 11w
Instead of seed phrases, you have to depend on other people if you lost your phone and your Bitkey. This is a potential point of failure. Seed phrases are much more reliable.

So, instead of adding lightning capabilities, let alone a lightning address, you release another hardware wallet that nobody asked for, with a screen that will kill the battery even faster and no way to replace it. Are you guys smoking crack?

The engineering behind Bitkey is impressive. Self-custody is the final boss for financial freedom. Great work!.
WalletScrutiny · 11w
The text contradicts the video ;) 100% more is twice as much than before, right? Anyway, lack of a screen was the deal breaker for us on the initial Bitkey, putting it into the verdict "no interface to approve transactions". With a screen that should not be the case anymore. https://walletscrutiny....

It is not perfectly clear to me if after the purchase of a bitkey there is a need to pay for a plan or the service of signing is included in the price.

Another month. Another cycle of noise. Self-custody is still the answer.

And bitcoin is still bitcoin. Conviction compounds.

Q2 starts tomorrow. Stay sovereign.

I’m sorry but you don’t really have a say when you can’t even offer people full bitcoin functionality. I purchased your hardware wallet long ago because it’s the only one on the market that has biometrics which seems like a no brainer, yet no one else has it. Then I realized you have absol...

"Chain Code Delegation as an open standard is the right approach—interoperability shouldn’t be proprietary. Privacy in multisig is critical, but adoption hinges on UX tradeoffs. Reminds me of how ETF flows could reshape self-custody dynamics by 2026. https://theboard.world/articles/bitcoin-et...

I have a bitkey. Is there a way I can configure it to sign for my knots node? I can't seem to find a guide.
