Our vision for BitKey is a portable device that a computer can boot from, containing a read-only prefabricated independent operating system environment which is engineered from the ground up to prioritize security while maximizing usability. We're aiming to provide a safe, reliable and easy to use practical platform for high risk applications such as Bitcoin transactions.
