Secure cold storage for your bitcoin

As a long-term bitcoin holder, your priorities inevitably change over the course of your life.

โ€‹Unchainedโ€‹ is here to help every step of the way.

  • 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 donโ€™t need to do this alone. Unchained's team can help you with a โ€‹guided setupโ€‹, no matter your bitcoin experience.
