Secure cold storage for your bitcoin
As a long-term bitcoin holder, your priorities inevitably change over the course of your life.
Protect your bitcoin. Bitcoin purchased through the trading desk lands directly into your cold storage.
Easy withdrawals. Exchange hacks and collapses are the greatest risk to your bitcoin. Say goodbye to settling bitcoin purchases to an exchange account then jumping through hoops to make a withdrawal. Unchained will help you withdraw to your own vault.
Upgrade from singlesig. If you already hold bitcoin in your own wallet, you can still significantly increase your security with a multisig vault.
You donโt need to do this alone. Unchained's team can help you with a โguided setupโ, no matter your bitcoin experience.
