We build Bitcoin-centric tools that empower you to reclaim your sovereignty, including Passport hardware wallet and Envoy app. Open source, USA assembled. Learn more at https://foundation.xyz

We are still working through final steps before we can begin provisioning at the factory. This will likely take place in the first week of Jan, with early access orders beginning to ship in the days that follow.

Hey guys. We are here. Still working away to get Prime into your hands.

We are working through final steps before we can begin provisioning at the factory. This will likely take place in the first week of Jan, with early access orders beginning to ship in the days that follow.

Most 2FA apps prioritize convenience, not security.

Passport Prime makes 2FA hardware-native:

– offline

– no SIM swap

– physical confirmation for every login

We can’t wait to get Prime in your hands. Until then, here’s a look at the 2FA flow in action.

Envoy v2.1.0 is now live!

🪄 Improved Magic Backups

🔐 Improved Tor reliability

🐞 Minor bug fixes

Full release notes availabe here: https://foundation.xyz/2025/10/envoy-version-2-1-0-is-now-available/

Before Passport Prime ships, we commissioned a full third-party security audit from Keylabs, the same team behind the well-known wallet.fail research. Their review covered every layer of Passport Prime, from hardware and firmware to system architecture to evaluate its resilience against real-world attack scenarios.

The results: no critical or high-severity vulnerabilities were found. All observations were classified as low severity, requiring physical access and advanced tools. Keylabs concluded that Prime’s architecture demonstrates “exceptional security design principles and sophisticated implementation,” and “a highly secure architecture that exceeds industry standards.”

We’ve published the full breakdown, findings, and our response here:

Just posted an update from our CEO. See our page.

An update from Zach our CEO regarding passport prime:

To our Passport Prime Early Access customers: we appreciate your continued patience as our @FOUNDATIONdvcs team works to get devices into your hands. It’s taken longer than we thought it would – and while I still don’t have an exact date, we are much closer now and are aiming to begin shipping in the coming weeks. Below is a detailed update of where we are from a hardware and software perspective.

While Passport Prime will be the third device Foundation has created, it’s really an entirely new, first-generation device running a new operating system (KeyOS) and new hardware architecture. It’s the first of its kind personal security platform that will enable an open, permissionless developer ecosystem for third party apps.

It’s been an enormous effort to build KeyOS, ensure it is secure, and create the first-party apps that are shipping with Passport Prime. This week we officially finished our security audit by @keylabsio, who we think is best in the business. We will publish the final report next week and are finishing up implementing the suggestions from the audit to ensure Passport Prime is the most secure device on the market.

Completing the audit is a major milestone and was one of the items blocking us from being able to finalize the v1.0 bootloader and KeyOS release. I’m sharing a screenshot of the Conclusion page below, but I also wanted to share the last sentence of the report:

“This results in a highly secure hardware wallet architecture that exceeds industry standards for protecting users' digital assets.”

With Passport Prime and KeyOS, we are aiming to not only match industry standard security (cough, Ledger, cough), but exceed it. I am proud to say that we have done that.

Now that the audit is complete, the team is rigorously testing the firmware update process, so that when you unbox your Passport Prime and connect it to Envoy, it will seamlessly update to the latest KeyOS firmware.

This is of the utmost importance because we can fix most bugs with updates, even after shipping, but there cannot be any bugs in the initial process of connecting Passport Prime to Envoy and initiating a firmware update.

Once we internally deem that firmware updates are bulletproof, we will give the factory the go-ahead to provision all circuit boards with KeyOS and complete final assembly and packaging.

In the meantime, we are squashing bugs in our first-party apps and working to complete all Bitcoin app features. Since this is the Early Access batch, we do expect that there will be some bugs and/or some incomplete features across apps, but we want to ensure that (1) there are absolutely no bugs that will affect device security and (2) that the Bitcoin app has parity with the Passport Core experience, supports all the same software wallets, and so on.

I will continue to post regular updates and will also publish a video walking through the latest version of KeyOS. Please let me know if you have any questions! Thanks for reading.

You can, on-chain or via lightning over on our website.

We appreciate your patience, we are working very hard to get these in the hands of people very soon, we will also have a new update coming out in the next couple of days.

📊 97% of apps track your personal data.

🔎 80% share it with third parties.

Foundation: 0% tracking. 0% data collection.

Your privacy isn’t a product. It’s a right.

Online, you don’t own anything:

• Subscriptions can be revoked.

• Accounts can be banned.

• Purchases can be “removed.”

• Exchanges can lock you out.

Bitcoin and Nostr: the only things online that can’t be taken from you.

Mt. Gox: 850,000 BTC gone.

FTX: $8B gone.

Celsius, BlockFi, Voyager: billions gone.

Every cycle proves the same point:

If it’s not in self-custody, it’s not safe.

The latest version of 2.0.2 is now published on all your favorite mobile platforms!

You can read the full release notes below:

https://foundation.xyz/2025/08/envoy-version-2-0-2-is-now-available/

One day, the login will fail.

The exchange will be "down for maintenance."

The service will be "no longer available in your country."

And you'll wish you had it in your hands!

Some hold cash. Others hold their keys.

Your bitcoin. Safe. Secure. Ready when you need it with Passport Core & Prime!

Sorry the whole email didn't type there. It's hello@foundation.xyz

Thanks you :)

Foundation stands with Samourai Wallet

We've been working behind the scenes with the p2prights.org team to find ways to support their efforts and the defense fund of the @SamouraiWallet team.

That culminates today in a 50M sat (~$35k) donation and fund-raising campaign.

We've created a new promo code, FREESAMOURAI, that will automatically donate $20 of the proceeds of any Passport sale using the code to the Samourai Wallet team's defense fund via p2prights.org. In addition, for this week alone we will donate $20 of every sale regardless of promo code usage to get things rolling.

Setting a precedent

The case against the Samourai Wallet team has the possibility of setting a sweeping and powerful precedent, either for freedom tech and privacy, or one that criminalizes providing privacy tools to the world.

This has far broader reach than "just" in the Bitcoin space, and as such we hope to see many companies and projects in the space come together to support the Samourai Wallet team's defense and the broader mission of the Peer-to-peer Rights Fund as we fight for the right to build and run freedom tech across the US.

About the Peer-to-peer Rights Foundation

If you haven't heard of this new foundation yet, they're a product of the Bitcoin Policy team, headed up by @zackbshapiro and @DavidZell_. They're forming a new fund to "protect innovation, privacy, and user autonomy through strategic litigation and advocacy."

Their first major project is helping to fund the defense of the @SamouraiWallet team in the U.S. v. Rodriguez & Hill case that is ongoing. We've been thoroughly impressed in our time talking with the p2prights.org team, and were glad to have an organization we could strongly support in such a volatile time in the space.

Don't need a Passport?

Don't let that stop you! Consider helping the cause in one of these three ways:

1⃣ Re-tweet this post to raise awareness

2⃣ Donate directly on p2prights.org using fiat or Bitcoin

3⃣ Advocate for the Samourai Wallet team's freedom, including using the #FreeSamourai hashtag
