Foundation’s co-founder and CEO Zach Herbert is on a mission to create Bitcoin products with the sleekness and usability of Apple devices but that also protect user privacy and are built with open-source code.
, a company that makes Bitcoin hardware and software wallets, has spent the last four years building Bitcoin technology that’s not only secure and open-source but also as usable as products made by Apple, a brand that Herbet loves .He went on to share that Foundation also has “very strong principles we try to uphold around open-source, privacy and freedom.”
Regarding the private keys, Foundation has created a simplified way to back them up compared to the traditional method of writing them down. With the Passport, users can save their seed phrase to the industrial grade microSD card that comes with the device. “What's amazing about Magic Backups is that you're onboarded within 60 seconds of downloading the app for the first time, and so you can always go and import your own seed if you want to, or create and save your own seed instead,” he added.
“We're trying to make the products that the hardcore user will use and love but then will also feel comfortable recommending to their friends and family,” explained Herbert.“When I first got into Bitcoin, the hardware wallets were only just beginning to be a thing,” recounted Herbert. “We want to be something like the Apple of the industry,” said Herbert. “ hardware, software, and services that are all tightly intertwined and work seamlessly together.”
Herbert also shared that Apple even hinders the design of Bitcoin mobile wallets, which affects not only the quality of Bitcoin mobile wallets for Apple users but for Android users, as well.
