Foundation Passport Core Hardware Wallet

If your main focus is on Bitcoin, the Foundation Passport (Batch 2) hardware wallet is the answer. This hardware wallet is an innovative, powerful device made right here in the US. It features a new "digital deco" design language.

 

Features Of The Foundation Passport (Batch 2) Hardware Wallet

 

• The device features an overhauled user interface. The UI is modern yet simple, with a new left-to-right navigation.

• Balances and transactions are easy to read. The device has a stunning, high-resolution IPS color display. This screen is bonded to ultra-hard, scratch-resistant glass. It renders brighter and clearer QR codes in all types of lighting conditions.

• The wallet uses a standard removable lithium-ion battery. This specific type is a Nokia BL-5C, which is readily accessible from online retailers. This provides longer battery life and an accurate battery indicator.

• The device has a magnetic rear cover for battery access. It is constructed of high-quality plastic and copper-plated zinc alloy.

• The Foundation Passport wallet does not connect via Bluetooth or data cable.The device uses QR codes and a MicroSD Card to connect. This method keeps the device air-gapped.

• The Passport hardware wallet uses a responsive physical keypad for entering important data and making transactions.

• The wallet has a power-only USB-C port for charging. This special port only has pins for power, not data. This feature preserves the device's airgap.

• It also includes a physical power button for simplicity and an improved microSD slot. The new slot design prevents backward insertion.

How Does The Foundation Passport Bitcoin Hardware Wallet Work?

The Foundation Passport device works exclusively for those who focus on Bitcoin. This Bitcoin self-custody hardware wallet does not support other types of cryptocurrencies.

Keep your coins safe with transparent security options and an air-gapped connection. Foundation devices only use QR codes and MicroSD cards to connect with other devices. They have a USB-C port, but this is only used for charging.

Safety And Security Of The Foundation Passport Wallet

Foundation devices are safe and have robust security. With a MicroSD card and QR codes, there are limited ways to connect with the product.

 

Security Features Of The Foundation Passport Hardware Wallet

• The QR code helps you communicate between the computer and hardware wallet or app. There are no wireless communications.

• Only PSBT files are being sent. With Foundation Passport devices you can verify this with your QR code.

• The robust security model ensures optimal safety. The hardware uses an ultra-fast STM processor, a Microchip 608a secure element, an Omnivision cameracube, and an avalanche noise source for entropy.

• The hardware and firmware are fully open source.

• Air-gapped bitcoin transactions work best with no access via a Wifi connection. This ensures the safety of your data.

• The Passport supports options for partially signed bitcoin transactions (PSBT) so all parties can add their signature when possible.
