Yeah, but can your NFT email you back, roast your spending, and double as a Lightning wallet at the same time?
Yeap, I’m doing design at piggy, making sure it all looks nice and piggy stays cute.
I mentioned that here: #1085079
Nobody paid me for this, it’s my own money I earned through my Design/Engineering career. These are savings I built up over a couple of years, I locked about half and kept the rest for emergencies. I don’t like trading and I do spend like crazy, so I decided to lock them up.
I hoped that if I boost this it might get popular and I’d earn a couple sats. I really love piggy, it’s a great project and I’m sure you’ll love it too. Prices differ so there’s a piggy for everyone. If you buy through my link, I’ll earn a small commission, that’s the whole goal :))
Yeah :))) good point. It’s not an NFT, not some random JPEG. This is what a collectible should look like, one that actually has utility.
It’s planned to become a blockchain collectible too, devs are already on it.
Imagine an ordinal with Bitcoin inside, and you can still deposit more and use it as a wallet again.
I got a price target too. At 1M. If Bitcoin hits that before the date it unlocks automatically. Otherwise it stays locked until the time I chose. I’m not that technical, I need to research how the time lock really on self custody..
Everybody says it might hit 1M on the next halving, so I set that as the early unlock. Just in case it happens before 2030.
Per terms:
Liquidation or wound down
We are building for the long run. Still, here is our safety plan.
Force unlock for withdrawals: All Smart Locked balances will be unlocked and moved to a withdrawable state.
Withdrawal window: We will announce a clear in-app withdrawal window so you can move funds to your own wallet.
Withdrawal options:
Manual: withdraw to any Bitcoin address you choose.
Automatic (in development): on a liquidation trigger, auto withdraw to your preset Bitcoin address.
Separation of funds: Your bitcoin is held separately from company funds and is never lent or rehypothecated.
FTX was an exchange made by a shitcoiner, for shitcoiners. Piggy is Bitcoin only, and I like its vision, plus it’s actually cute.
Piggy is for regular folks like me. Not everybody is a hardcore Bitcoiner. I even gave one to my kids, and they picked it up without any problem or questions. I locked it and dropped in a couple hundred dollars worth of sats so they can learn.
And yes, I’m promoting my Piggy. If someone buys their own through my link I get a commission. Piggy just started, so I’ve got plenty of chances to stack :)
What prevents Piggy from stealing the balance is the same thing that prevents any business from doing it: regulation. Just like Binance, Coinbase, or OKX, it’s a custodial service that operates under rules. If they tried to run off with funds, that’s jail time.
And if you look at the product, you’ll see it’s not like other wallets. It’s a new approach with the latest tech. If the goal was to steal, Piggy would be a shitcoin, pump and dump, and disappear.
Funds aren’t sitting in one hot wallet. They’re in separate multi-sig cold storage, with only a small fraction kept hot for liquidity.
My account is secured with passkeys (can’t be breached like a password), so the only real risk is if I hand it over or fall for social engineering.
And per the terms, if Piggy ever folds I will have a withdrawal window to redeem my Bitcoin. It will automatically unlock.
For context, I design at Piggy, but this balance is my own personal savings. It wasn’t earned through Piggy, I just trust the system enough to lock my Bitcoin here long term.
