About SafeKeepVault

Cold Storage Without the Costs

What if the hardware you already own is all you need?

A New Perspective on Cold Storage

The computer you already own is a capable Bitcoin signing device. It just needs the right software. SafeKeepVault transforms any x86 laptop or desktop into a fully air-gapped cold storage vault — bypassing the host OS, locking out all network interfaces, and running entirely from a USB drive. The result is hardware-wallet-grade security at the cost of a thumb drive, using hardware you’ve already paid for.

Our Core Principles

  • Sovereignty as a Standard — Secure self-custody Bitcoin should not carry a high barrier to entry. The tools required to protect your wealth should be free, open, and accessible to everyone.
  • Earned Trust, Not Assumed — In a world of proprietary “black box” devices, transparency is everything. Every line of our code is open-source, auditable, and verifiable.
  • Hardware Sustainability — That “old” laptop is more than enough. We believe in maximizing the utility of existing technology rather than creating more electronic waste.

Free and Open Source
