Six things that work hard for you — and zero things that report on you.
Inside the vault

No , no middleman parking your coins. Buy in-app and it lands in a only you control.
Plain-language confirmations: what moved, to whom, and what it cost — in sats.
A clean line, a real number, and zero finance-bro candle theatrics.
Confused about a transaction? Tap and ask. Plain English, no jargon, no TradFi eye-roll energy.

Keep your savings offline and manage them here. You sign; we never see your keys.
Fair question. Most Bitcoin tools force a trade-off: custodial apps are easy but hold your coins; hardcore wallets hand you real ownership but assume you already speak Bitcoin. Bad Wallet is built for the corner nobody else bothers with.

The boring architecture answers
Sweet on the outside. Underneath: an architecture built so that trusting us is never required.
Your seed phrase never leaves your device — and we will never ask for it. Not in the app, not by email, not “for verification.”
We store only a public key. Not your keys. Not your coins. Public keys can watch a balance — they can’t spend a sat.
Breach our servers and your funds still can’t move — we never hold them. There’s nothing behind the counter to steal.
The Bitcoin engine is open source. Don’t trust us — read it. Then fork it, audit it, and tell us what we got wrong.
