A safer way to hold Bitcoin

Unlike centralized exchanges, Proton Wallet ensures only you can access your Bitcoin.

    Your keys. Your data. Your Bitcoin.

    Vast amounts of Bitcoin have been stolen in hacks or lost after exchanges collapsed, leading to the famous saying:


    "Not your keys, not your coins".

    Proton Wallet is a self-custody wallet, meaning we use end-to-end encryption to ensure that you are the only one with access to your wallet's encryption keys.

    Our robust recovery methods mean you can never be locked out from your Bitcoin — not even by us.

    Manage your Bitcoin securely with Proton Wallet

    Swiss based

    Proton Wallet is headquartered in Switzerland, meaning your data, including transactions, are protected by some of the world’s strictest privacy laws.

    Open source

    Proton Wallet’s code is open source(new window), meaning anybody can audit it for security and transparency.

    Proton Sentinel

    Proton Sentinel, our advanced account security system that uses machine learning with human analysis, prevents an attacker from accessing your account even if they have somehow stolen your credentials.

    24/7 human support

    Unlike other wallets, we have your back. You can reach a real human 24/7/365 and get personal support for all inquiries, simple and complex.

    Financial freedom for all

    Society's transition to a cashless economy has allowed banks and other intermediaries to control and monitor every transaction. Just as we fought similar mass surveillance of emails with Proton Mail, we want to enable everyone to own their money and securely transact with anyone.

    Like Proton, Bitcoin leverages transparency and strong encryption to empower individuals, giving them control of their digital assets. Together, Proton and Bitcoin can make financial freedom attainable for all.

    At Proton, we believe that financial freedom and privacy are core pillars of creating a free and fair society. This social mission drives everything we do and is the governing principle at the core of the non-profit Proton Foundation.

    Our story

    Proton was created in 2014 by scientists who met at CERN (the European Organization for Nuclear Research) and created Proton Mail, the world’s largest end-to-end encrypted email service. We have over 10 years of experience at the cutting edge of encryption and security, delivering free and open-source services to over 100 million people.


    Proton Wallet is operated by Proton Financial AG, an independent Swiss subsidiary of Proton AG, whose primary shareholder is the non-profit Proton Foundation. Our core business is privacy and security. We do not speculate in crypto, and we are not a crypto trading firm or exchange.


    Our only business is being a long-term, reliable Swiss vault for your digital assets and data, secured by the unwavering mathematical principles of encryption.
