kyc on those ibans is a permanent link to your utxos. invisible usually means the tracking is happening where you can't see it. what's the fee spread?

It's a KYC'ed product, yes. We do not really compete with no-KYC Bitcoin buying options. There are some great apps out there facilitating such buying, although at a premium.

We're trying to solve for self-custody, and compete with centralised exchanges. So that people who are already buying Bitcoin via KYC'ed platforms would at least not leave their coins for the IOU promise.

When we say invisible, we specifically mean the automation that allows to set a recurring EUR transfer to another IBAN in your own name, and just watch sats being stacked in your chosen wallet (which can be an intermediary wallet, too for the UTXO sake).

In terms of fees, we charge a simple 1% service fee that goes down if you invite friends (0.9% -> 0.75% -> 0.5% -> ...) and our liquidity providers have a spread of up to 0.5%. So, at most, you would be paying 1.5% from the mid-market price for this automated DCA.

One of our favourite features is also one of the least exciting to explain.

- You get a dedicated IBAN for your wallet
- You send Euros to it
- Bitcoin appears in self-custody

Good financial products should eventually become invisible.

You set the rule once. Then they disappear into the background.

Your job is basically a fiat mine.

Euros arrive every month.

Rent takes some. Bills take some. Life takes some.

Whatever is left doesnโ€™t necessarily need to sit there waiting for you to remember to buy Bitcoin.

You can automate buying Bitcoin into self-custody with wavespace.

Being a Bitcoiner is not easy in this transitional period we live in. Orange-pilling is often perceived as "cultist" behaviour, while 99%+ of the society still wants to get paid in paper monopoly money.

It also feels backwards to have to hold euros just to be able to pay others. Weโ€™d rather keep Bitcoin as Bitcoin until the coffee is actually being paid for.

That's what we solve:
Your self-custody โ†’ wavecard โ†’ merchant.

We offer a much more natural way to live on Bitcoin as base money.

๐ŸŸ  Passkeys & PINs: bank-grade security with improved UX

A huge security upgrade is live on wavespace!

๐Ÿซ† BIOMETRIC PASSKEY:
It is the fastest and the most secure way to use the app. Passkey leverages your unique biometric information (Face/Touch ID). From now on, you can use it wherever the app asked for a one-time code: logging in, making a transfer, checking your card.

Your device keeps the private key behind Face/Touch ID. We only ever hold the public half, worthless to whoever steals it. Bank-grade protection, which makes the account access much smoother and more secure.

๐Ÿ”’ SESSION PIN:
We're also introducing session PINs, which will lock your access after 5 minutes of inactivity. Come back, type four digits, and you are back in.

This now protects your account and sensitive data if you ever left your device unattended.

๐ŸŸ  WHAT DO YOU NEED TO DO?
Simply log back in to your account and you will be guided to set your 4-digit PIN & a biometric passkey.

Why do you comply then? Afraid will need to stop using your app/card once you enforce it ๐Ÿ˜ฅ

We're forced to, just like Bull Bitcoin, in order to bridge Bitcoin with fiat. That's the current cost of having financial interactions with the rest of the world that operates on fiat. To pay rent, buy groceries, book flights and pay for anything else where they want paper monopoly money. If you only have Bitcoin, bridges are still needed, but the risk has increased due to DAC8.

DAC8 is already live, but we need to annoy our local jurisdictions about it, and Bull Bitcoin has presented a good summary of arguments to use.

IMO, If you comply, you're feeding the beast. Better find "some sly roundabout way introduce something that they can't stop"

We've just pushed "Auto-Declaration" feature as an upgrade to new MiCA changes. For those that transact with their own wallets, this essentially brings back uninterrupted transactions, and most importantly, NWC auto-topups for self-custodial wavecard spending. Here's a quick walkthrough of the feature: https://www.loom.com/share/d6d1d4868fa94b2aba0e110b0e3b5ad3

In a nutshell, you can go to your "Account Settings" -> "Auto-Declaration", and toggle ON/OFF ownership for all future transfers per each direction:
โ€ข Onchain deposits
โ€ข Lightning deposits
โ€ข Onchain withdrawals
โ€ข Lightning withdrawals
