Rewards on Fountain are Sponsored by Bitkit
Bitkit is a simple, powerful and beautifully designed self‑custodial wallet from Synonym available on iOS and Android.
Behind most “custodial wallets” lies a self-custodial wallet - just not yours. Take control of your money with Bitkit, and you’ll never have to ask for permission to spend it.
Bitkit hands you the keys to your money, profile, contacts, and web accounts so that you can pay anyone, anywhere, any time and spend your Bitcoin on the things you value in life.
If you’re new to bitcoin, it’s normal to feel overwhelmed. Bitkit flatten the steep learning curve that most newcomers face. Instead of using technical terms like “channels”, “nodes” and “liquidity”, Bitkit speaks in a language that is more accessible to those starting out on their journey. They make it easy to run a node on your phone so you can pay instantly without worrying about the nuts and bolts of the protocol.
Bitkit’s features give you the same level of convenience that many of us have grown accustomed to from using mobile banking apps. You can add friends to your contact list and pay them anytime with requiring them to send you an invoice. You can also keep track of your spending behaviour by tagging and organising your transactions. One thing we really like is the ability to add live widgets to your wallet home screen, such as the current bitcoin price and the latest bitcoin headlines.
There are many bitcoin wallets that deliver on basic functionality but lack the slickness in UX and design that make them a joy to use. Bitkit’s eye-catching dark theme stands out from the competition and it’s simple interface makes it incredibly easy to pick up and start using as your daily driver. The finer details like swiping your balance to hide it and tapping it to display it in USD make all the difference.
Convenience doesn’t come at the cost of security either. Store your recovery phrase safely and pick up right where you left off with automatic backups of your transactions. Restore your bitcoin on any wallet.
