Are Unchained keys held by a third party to custody bitcoin assets?
No. Unchained custodies our own key. Our partner key agents manage their own keys separately.
How we custody our key:
Our multisig vaults and loans utilize Unchained as a key signer. These backup keys are protected by our in-house security model and are geographically distributed. While we can't reveal specific details, know that a third party never holds our keys.
Our partnerships with third party key agents:
Unchained has strategic partnerships with multiple key agents. These partnerships allow for more flexibility where clients may hold only one or even zero keys to a multisig vault. This service is geared towards high net worth individuals and businesses.
Our current key agent partners:
- Coincover
- Bakkt
