Proton (https://proton.me/), known for its secure email, VPN, and storage services, is launching Proton Wallet (https://proton.me/wallet), a self-custody cryptocurrency wallet supporting bitcoin initially, with plans to add more currencies based on user feedback. Users maintain control of their private keys, and Proton cannot access their digital assets.
The wallet, available to Visionary Plan subscribers, integrates with Proton's ecosystem, allowing users to send crypto via email addresses and buy bitcoins using fiat currency. Proton Wallet aims to simplify bitcoin transactions while preserving security and decentralization.
