A glimpse of why CryoBrick as a project was born.
Now on the Bitshala FOSS Stage at Bitmela: @apalok21 presenting @cryobrick What if an ordinary KaiOS feature phone could become an air-gapped Bitcoin signing device? CryoBrick's Compass wallet generates or restores a 12-word BIP39 seed, derives BIP84 Native SegWit addresses, and exports a zpub for use with a watch-only wallet. The watch-only wallet prepares a PSBT. The offline phone reviews the transaction, signs it with the private keys, and returns the transaction hex for broadcasting. Explore the code: github.com/cryobrick/compass

New tools are being built for CryoBrick Version 2. Stay tuned.
If you back-up your Bitcoin wallet on paper or a metal plate and God forbid it gets exposed. What do you want it to look like? One which reveals everything or the one which reveals nothing? There are about 丰10000 in this wallet. If you find the Seed Phrase they are yours.

Standard hardware wallets scream "I hold Bitcoin". So we built @cryobrick, an open-source, air-gapped Bitcoin wallet disguised as a $20 feature phone. Our Substack article covers why we built CryoBrick. Link 👇 open.substack.com/pub/apalok…

CryoBrick matches titans like BlueWallet & Electrum, giving the same 128-bit entropy output as dedicated chips. Want 100% trustless security? Code is open! We are currently working on adding manual dice & coin inputs. Build with us on GitHub: github.com/cryobrick/compass

🔒 CryoBrick is safe & unaffected by recent wallet bugs! We use standard software CSPRNG via device-level system entropy to generate unique 128-bit keys. "System noise" means your phone captures random, microscopic clock-cycle timing variations between background tasks.

🔒 Security Check: CryoBrick is fully safe and unaffected by the recent RNG vulnerabilities impacting hardware wallets. We generate 128-bit private keys using a robust software CSPRNG rooted in the device's system entropy, ensuring your wallet is entirely unique. (1/2)

Want maximum security? You don't have to trust the phone's system. CryoBrick is 100% open-source on GitHub. If you want to customize your setup or add a feature to manually input physical dice rolls or coin flips, the code is completely open for you to build! (2/2)

Full version with better formatting is on Substack 👇 open.substack.com/pub/apalok… Would love to hear your thoughts in the comments there. Is MicroStrategy accelerating Bitcoin adoption or diluting its essence? #Bitcoin #MicroStrategy #SelfCustody

Man, it’s easy to get black-pilled seeing all this dystopian stuff like VPN bans for age verification and the broader push toward digital IDs, social credit systems, and CBDCs. But seeing people all around the world tinkering to make Bitcoin better freedom money makes me bullish!
Cryobrick es un proyecto de cold storage Bitcoin airgapped que corre en feature phones basicos, esos celulares de teclado fisico que cuestan pocos dolares, el concepto es simple, el celular queda completamente desconectado de internet y funciona como hardware wallet de bajo costo, el app se llama Compass y permite crear y restaurar carteras Bitcoin sin ninguna conexion de red, costo de hardware cero, plausible deniability porque parece cualquier otra app, your keys your control, proyecto nuevo creado en diciembre de 2025, vale la pena seguirlo en cryobrick.com​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ 🧡⚡️

Thanks @studentofbtc for the opportunity, it was an incredible experience participating in this Accelerator. The memories of interacting and working with these amazing group of builders will be cherished.
India is almost invisible on the global Bitcoin stage. We export talent but don’t build brands. This accelerator was an attempt to change that. Here is what 9 teams built over 12 weeks with 0.1 BTC on the line.....👇

The 12 weeks flew by. Lots of learning and lots of growing. Let's make it count.
India's first Bitcoin accelerator 🥳

Cryobrick introduces an air-gapped Bitcoin cold storage solution that runs on basic feature phones. The phone remains completely disconnected from the internet and functions as a low-cost hardware wallet. Using the “Compass” app, users can create and restore wallets fully offline. No internet, near-zero cost, and strong plausible deniability.

hey so JTAG does gets you the localStorage dump for sure, but even though your get that, the wallet mnemonic is encrypted with AES-256-GCM behind a mandatory 12+ char passwd (letters, num, and symbols). So after your 15 mins you've got an encrypted blob and a brute force prblem🙃

Your old Nokia 3310 can now become a Bitcoin wallet. This open source wallet, Cryobrick, can be hidden on basic cellphones like any normal app, giving you private and offline custody. Play Snake and HODL on same device. - @RunwithBitcoin
