AmberVault: Advanced Cold Storage for Everyone

AmberVault is a secure custodial storage solution offered by AmberApp for your bitcoin. It provides a safe and reliable way to store your assets, utilising advanced cold storage technology to protect your wealth.

The Bitcoin Hero’s Journey

One of Bitcoin’s most revolutionary features is self-custody, which allows you to take complete control of your wealth without relying on a third party. While this level of financial sovereignty is empowering, it also comes with the responsibility of keeping your private keys secure. Any loss of these keys could result in losing access to your bitcoin.

AmberVault bridges the gap between full custody and self-custody. It offers a secure environment for your bitcoin while you gain confidence and understanding of self-custody, allowing you to focus on growing your wealth and knowledge with the assurance that your assets are expertly managed and protected.

Enhanced Security Features

  1. 7-Day Secure Withdrawal Delay: Every withdrawal request from AmberVault comes with a 7-day secure delay. This time buffer helps detect and prevent unauthorised attempts, giving you peace of mind and added security before any funds are moved.

  2. Passphrase Protection: To further safeguard your assets, AmberVault offers a passphrase feature. This ensures that even if someone gains access to your account, they cannot withdraw your bitcoin without the additional passphrase.

How to Get Started with AmberVault

  1. If you’re new to AmberApp, start by creating an account.

  2. Navigate to the AmberVault section in the app and generate a passphrase.

  3. Move your bitcoin into AmberVault.

AmberVault is here to support you at every stage of your Bitcoin journey—whether you're transitioning to self-custody or wanting to diversify your custody solutions.
