Description
Bitkey is the safe, simple, and secure way to own and manage your bitcoin. It’s a mobile app, hardware device, and a set of recovery tools all in one wallet.
Control
If you hold bitcoin with an exchange, you don’t control it. With Bitkey, you hold the private keys and control your money.
Security
Bitkey is a 2-of-3 multi-signature wallet which means there are three private keys protecting your bitcoin. You always need two out of three keys to sign a transaction, giving you extra protection.
Recovery
Bitkey recovery tools help you recover your bitcoin if you lose your phone, hardware, or both, without needing a seed phrase.
Manage
Use the app to send, receive, and transfer bitcoin safely on the go. For added protection, you can set a daily spending limit on your phone.

Ratings and Reviews
I’m All In
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.
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!
Good but could be better
Great app but needs the following improvement(s): - xPub export (for taxes this is non-negotiable)
- Dark mode
- FaceID for app unlock
- Needs a built-in estate planning feature — who does the seed go to if the app is not used in X amount of days / years & remains inactive (such as in the death of the owner).
