Bitkit: Bitcoin & Lightning Wallet

Maker

📌

At Synonym we are thrilled to officially release Bitkit, our flagship product designed to empower users with true financial sovereignty. Bitkit is a self-custodial Bitcoin wallet leveraging the Lightning Network for instant payments without relying on third-party custodians. Your private keys never leave your device, ensuring that only you have access to your funds. We built Bitkit on open-source principles, prioritizing transparency and community involvement. During our beta phase, many users and developers contributed by flagging issues, helping us make Bitkit more stable and secure. Self-custody is the cornerstone of our philosophy because controlling your own money shouldn't be optional. It's a fundamental right. Bitkit puts you in charge, minimizing risks like exchange hacks and custodian malpractices and enabling permissionless transactions. Looking forward to your feedback, and let's keep pushing Bitcoin payments forward together.

@jaketoshi Congrats on the launch of Bitkit! 🎉 The emphasis on financial sovereignty and self-custody aligns perfectly with Bitcoin's core principles. I appreciate the focus on user privacy and the non-reliance on third-party custodians. I’m curious, how does Bitkit handle transaction speed and fees compared to other Lightning Network wallets? And are there any upcoming features or integrations planned to further enhance the user experience?

Hey Jacobo, love the idea of Bitkit! Super interested in the self-custody feature. Quick question though - does the Lightning Network integration mean I can make payments instantly with no fees? Keep up the great work!

@robertthomas2 Thanks Rob. Yeah, instant payments with "minimal fees", usually around 0.0001% to 0.001% of the transaction amount.

@renchu_song Fees are all the same for everyone on the Lightning Network. So basically near zero % fees.

@zane12580 Hi. Yup, your funds are in your control 100%, since you get the keys right after creating the wallet. We also have the feature to move money back-and-forth from on-chain (savings) to Lightning (spending) super easy + coin control.
