Your keys, your Bitcoin: bringing non-custodial control home to Blink Wallet

Today we're launching non-custodial accounts for Blink Wallet, and we couldn't be more excited about it. This means you can now hold your own keys — your Bitcoin, truly yours — with the same simple Blink experience you already know. Whether you're a merchant accepting sats at a market stall or a community builder helping someone send their first payment, you are now in control. No complexity, no headaches.
We didn't build this to check a box. We built it so the people onboarding the world to Bitcoin can own their funds fully, with the exact same experience they already rely on. Independence shouldn't cost you convenience, and now it doesn't.
— Kemal Yasar, Director of Special Projects at Blink
Fair warning: non-custodial accounts are still fresh. Some features from the custodial experience — like Point of Sale and Circles — may arrive later as the non-custodial account matures. We shipped this as soon as it was ready because we didn't want to make you wait any longer. Also, not all features are available in every region — some depend on local regulations.
