Billfodl Multishard
Billfodl's multi-unit kit for splitting a recovery phrase across several steel devices, aimed at Shamir-style or multi-location backup schemes. Uses the same stainless steel tile system as the standard Billfodl.
Black Seed Ink Stainless Steel Seed Phrase Backup Plate
A stainless steel plate you etch yourself to record a BIP39 recovery phrase, sold with an etching tool. Black Seed Ink also offers separate plates for passphrases, master passwords and exchange logins, plus tamper-seal security kits.
Blockstream Metal — Capsule
Blockstream's capsule-style metal seed backup, sold through its own store alongside the Jade hardware wallet. Uses stainless steel character tiles sealed inside a capsule so a recovery phrase survives fire and water.
Blockstream Metal — SeedQR
A metal plate designed to hold a punched SeedQR code rather than written words, so a recovery phrase can be restored by scanning it with a compatible signing device. Sold directly by Blockstream, which also offers a printable SeedQR template pack.
btcd
An alternative full node Bitcoin implementation written in Go, maintained by the btcsuite project. It performs full block validation and is widely used as a library and backend in Go-based Bitcoin software.
Chaincode Labs
Chaincode Labs is a research organisation that supports Bitcoin through funded research and developer education programmes. It is known for its residency and seminar programmes that bring new contributors into Bitcoin Core development.
Cryptosteel Cassette Solo
The original Cryptosteel Cassette, a hinged stainless steel case that holds loose letter tiles locked in place by a sliding bar. It stores up to 96 characters and needs no stamping tools. Currently listed on Cryptosteel's own shop as a clearance item.
electrs
An efficient reimplementation of the Electrum server in Rust. Running it beside Bitcoin Core lets Electrum-protocol wallets such as Sparrow and Electrum query your own node instead of a public server.
Electrum Personal Server
A minimal Electrum server designed for a single user. Instead of indexing the whole chain it watches only your own addresses through Bitcoin Core, so an Electrum wallet can connect privately to your node on modest hardware.
NBXplorer
A lightweight block explorer and UTXO tracker maintained by the BTCPay Server project. It indexes only the descriptors you ask it to track, which keeps resource use low for self-hosted wallets and payment servers.
OpenSwap (Coinswap)
A working implementation of the Maxwell–Belcher coinswap protocol, which swaps coins between peers through off-chain contract transactions so the swap does not appear as a coinjoin-shaped pattern on chain. Published as binaries and libraries by the Citadel FOSS project.
Silent Payments
A reference site for BIP352 silent payments, a scheme that lets someone publish a single reusable static address while each payment still lands on a unique, unlinkable on-chain output. The site tracks which wallets support it.
StampSeed Titanium Seed Plate (24-word)
A titanium plate you stamp yourself with letter punches to record a 24-word recovery phrase. StampSeed sells the blank plates separately from tooling, plus a large range of themed and Shamir/sharded plate sets.
StampSeed Titanium Seed Stamping Kit
A complete kit pairing StampSeed's titanium plates with the letter punches and tooling needed to stamp a recovery phrase. Intended for people who want everything in one purchase rather than sourcing punches separately.
Swan Vault
Swan Vault is a 2-of-3 multisig cold storage product from Swan Bitcoin designed to make self-custody approachable for non-technical holders. Swan provides an interface and expert support while the customer keeps sole spending authority over their bitcoin.
The Billfodl
A marine-grade 316 stainless steel plate that holds slide-in letter tiles for a BIP39 recovery phrase. It is tool-free and rearrangeable, and the maker backs it with a warranty. Sold direct from Billfodl's own store.
utreexod
A fully validating Bitcoin node with Utreexo support, maintained by the Utreexo project. Utreexo replaces the on-disk UTXO set with a compact hash accumulator so nodes can validate with a much smaller state.
ELLIPAL Seed Phrase Steel
ELLIPAL's own metal mnemonic backup, sold alongside its Titan air-gapped hardware wallets. Records a recovery phrase in steel so it survives the fire and water damage that would destroy a paper copy.
BlindBit Oracle
A Go implementation of a BIP352 silent payments indexing server. Running one lets a silent-payments wallet scan for its own payments against your own infrastructure instead of a third-party service.
Neutrino
Lightning Labs' privacy-preserving Bitcoin light client, implementing compact block filters (BIP157/158) so mobile and lightweight wallets can sync without revealing which addresses they care about.
Cake Wallet
Non-custodial multi-currency wallet operating since 2018, supporting Bitcoin along with Monero and other assets, with in-app exchange through third parties.
KYCnot.me
A directory that reviews and scores Bitcoin and crypto services — exchanges, wallets, VPNs and more — by how much identity verification they require, with a privacy score attached to each listing.
Parmanode
An open-source installer that automates setting up a Bitcoin node and related applications on ordinary desktop computers, aimed at people who do not want to work through manual installation steps.
BTC RPC Explorer
A database-free, self-hosted Bitcoin explorer that talks directly to Bitcoin Core over RPC. It is a common one-click app on home node distributions for browsing blocks and transactions privately.
Coinplate Grid
Coinplate's grid-style stainless steel backup, where you mark letters on a pre-etched alphabet grid with a center punch instead of stamping individual characters. No separate stamp set is needed.
ElectrumX
The Electrum protocol server implementation maintained alongside the Electrum wallet, usable for public-facing infrastructure or personal use. It builds a full address index from a Bitcoin node.
ColdTi Double Plate with Alphabetical Punches
ColdTi's titanium plate pair bundled with a set of alphabet letter punches, so you can stamp a recovery phrase without sourcing tooling separately. Same Grade 2 titanium as the plain plate set.
ThunderHub
A browser-based Lightning node manager for monitoring channels, balances, forwards and fees from a web interface, commonly installed on home node setups.
Blixt Wallet
Open-source Bitcoin Lightning wallet for Android and iOS focused on usability, running an embedded lnd node so the user keeps custody of channel funds.
LNProxy
A simple Lightning privacy tool that wraps a Lightning invoice so the payer does not learn the receiving node's identity, giving receivers a measure of privacy when sharing invoices publicly.
