 We just launched "Confirm via email," another tool browser-based wallets and custodians could implement to protect their users from malware.

You only get one chance to send a bitcoin transaction. Make sure you're sending it to the right destination. https://unchained.com/blog/email-confirm-address/

Now DAF users can send bitcoin directly to HRF by using bitcoin donor-advised funds, a strictly better DAF for charitable bitcoiners. https://image.nostr.build/d365b26ba3bff7eaae5784602e246d768912f97c97182dcf00da297138f007e8.jpg  https://unchained.com/donor-advised-funds

 Today Unchained and our partner University Impact launched bitcoin-native donor-advised funds, a new way to give bitcoin charitably. You can get tax benefits immediately and can:

-Hold bitcoin on behalf of the causes that aren't ready to accept it directly
-Donate bitcoin directly from the DAF to the organizations that are ready 
-All while keys are distributed in collaborative custody

 They aren't custodians but they're critical to the security of your #bitcoin in collaborative custody. You can hire one or multiple to secure a single multisig quorum.

Check out my new article, What is a bitcoin key agent. https://unchained.com/blog/what-is-a-bitcoin-key-agent/ 

 "Phil, I'm not angry, I'm disappointed"  @ODELL 

 Yesterday Unchained announced a major release - an enterprise collaborative custody network. It's an entirely new enterprise custody solution that eliminates any single company as a point of failure. 

We announced the first 2 enterprise partners, UK-based Coincover, and qualified custodian Kingdom Trust as the first 2 enterprise keys available for inclusion in a multisig quorum to secure large bitcoin holdings. 

What's different about this? 

-Additional enterprise key agents are currently onboarding, we don't just have 2. More announcements soon, and you will be able to select the enterprise keys you'd like to use.
-Individual multisig wallets are generated per client and per key arrangement. Even if you choose not to hold any keys (legal reasons prevent you from holding keys), you have access to the multisig file, can verify your bitcoin on your full node, and recover externally from Unchained with the key agents using Caravan, Sparrow, or even Electrum. 
- We will be able to offer "qualified" collaborative custody with categorically superior security for the bitcoin.

Centralized bitcoin custody is dead. Enterprise collaborative custody is available now. https://unchained.com/private-wealth-and-enterprise 

 The "crypto" industry has devolved into just creating shittier versions of the US dollar. At least they used to pretend they were doing something more innovative than just skirting KYC/AML to allow people to hold dollars.
