How are my funds protected?

How Bitstack protects your funds.

Bitstack has implemented a multi-layered security architecture to protect your bitcoin against cyberattacks, human error, and internal collusion.


A specialised custody partner

The custody of your bitcoin is entrusted to a specialised partner, recognised for its institutional-grade security standards. This ensures your assets are managed to the highest requirements in the industry.


Cold storage and hot storage

The majority of your bitcoin is held in cold storage — on systems that are fully offline and protected from online threats. A limited portion is kept in hot storage to ensure smooth day-to-day operations.


A multi-signature system

Your bitcoin is secured by a multi-signature (multisig) system. This means that the private key giving access to your funds is never held in a single location. Multiple independent validations are required to authorise every transaction.


No fractional reserves

Bitstack never lends your bitcoin or uses it to generate returns. Your assets belong entirely to you and remain accessible at all times.

If you wish to self-custody your bitcoin, you can withdraw it at any time to an external Bitcoin address. See our article to learn how to send your bitcoin.
