Figures from each repo's GitHub metadata at analysis time.
Requires at least one supported hardware signing device, software-only wallets are not supported.
Bitcoin-Safe is desktop software for managing cold storage Bitcoin wallets, meaning wallets whose private keys are kept on offline hardware devices rather than connected to the internet, which reduces the risk of theft. It is designed to work only with dedicated hardware signing devices such as Coldcard, BitBox, Ledger, Trezor, and several others, connecting to them over USB, QR codes, or an SD card depending on the device. The software walks users through setting up a multisig wallet, where more than one hardware device must approve a transaction before it can be sent, and provides step-by-step instructions along with printable PDF backup sheets for safely recording wallet recovery information. It can run test transactions to confirm every hardware signer is correctly connected before real funds are ever moved. For everyday use, Bitcoin-Safe supports organizing addresses into categories such as personal, work, or verified-identity funds, offers one-click fee selection based on current network congestion, and can visually diagram how money flows between transaction inputs and outputs. An optional plugin adds encrypted backup and synchronization of wallet labels between different computers using the Nostr protocol, along with basic chat and file sharing between wallet users. The project syncs to the Bitcoin network using compact block filters by default, a privacy-friendly method that avoids relying on a single centralized server, though it can also be configured to use a standard Electrum or Esplora server instead. It runs on Windows, Mac, and Linux, and its interface has been translated into more than twenty languages. Bitcoin-Safe is released under the GPLv3 license, which requires that any modified versions distributed to others also remain open source under the same terms.
Desktop software for setting up and managing cold storage Bitcoin wallets, including multisig setups that require multiple hardware devices to approve a transaction.
You can use and modify the code, but any modified version you distribute must also remain open source under the same license.
Setup difficulty is rated moderate, with roughly 30min to a first successful run.
Mainly general.
