  • Just use coinbase

    You have to use coinbase to use it anyway it’s basically pointless just another useless unnecessary step

  • Traditional or Roth

    Would love to see the addition of multi custodial option for tax deferred IRA’s Another great option be to have the ability to consolidate UTXO’s into manageable amounts for those periods of time when fees are inflated beyond the value of the UTXO And to defend against receivers knowing how much bitcoin you have

    App design is very similar to Cash App. At this point, I’m sold and have bought into Bitkey and the team that built Bitkey. Especially after reading the technical whitepapers outlining the overall solution. I am also very interested where they will take this solution moving forward. Such as future partners, advanced user settings, or a danger zone section like Coldcard. I decided to opt out of the other hardware wallets and custodial solutions in the market. I do have a backup in case things go south with Bitkey, but I think they are going the right direction. One feature I would love is the ability to export seeds.

  • Excellent BUT work remains

    Incredible wallet. BUT needs: - lightning - Dark setting mode - PIN/Face ID - hide BTC balance - multiple fingerprint support (ability to change after setup too) - iCloud backup password protected - 2FA for app - support for multiple bitkey devices (multiple wallets) - shared app access (w/ permission feature for family/estate planning) - option for 3 of 5 Multisig using additional bitkeys

    Pros: Clean design. Buying bitcoin from a partner is simple once set up, looking forward to more partners. Con #1: Disappointed Lightning wasn’t put in at release. There were mentions of this early in the blog and could have been done considering CashApp (Block) also uses Lightning. Con #2: Buying bitcoin from a partner (Coinbase) is expensive because you’ll have to pay the network fee + an extra partner fee. Yes the process is easy but I thought there would be more integration not just an automated buy+send feature. I can only buy from coinbase now? No cashapp option. Con#3: No ability to view public address. Easy to track a public address for tax purposes but now have to view each transaction as a separate wallet

  • Great device and slick app

    Setup experience was easy. The device is beautiful. The app is functional enough for a v1. My one request is please allow me to swap the stored fingerprint or add multiple.

  • Simple Self Custody

    Love the simple design and setup, iCloud backup, trusted contacts, and CashApp and Coinbase integration. My only major issue at the moment is there’s no way to lock the app, which is one of three keys in the multisig setup. This allows anyone with access to my phone the ability to freely send bitcoin up to my daily limit ($200 max set by the app) and also see my trusted contact names. I could turn the daily spend off, but would rather developer add passcode / biometric login to the app.

  • So far so good

    Clean looking app. Fairly intuitive to use as well. So far I’m liking it and the associated hardware. What would make me rate 5 stars?? The addition of a PIN or Face ID integration to get into the app. An extra layer of security to even see how much BTC I hold would be a great addition.

  • Really simple, powerful self custody

    Tried this out with a test device and i’m really impressed with how well the recovery features work. It seems like this would be a safe and easy way to hold onto a lot of my own bitcoin. Easy to use and hard to lose indeed!
