Blitz Wallet is a free, open-source, self-custodial Bitcoin and Lightning wallet built with React Native and Expo. It is designed for everyday Bitcoin use: users control their own 12-word seed phrase, no KYC is required, and Blitz does not custody user funds.
Blitz is powered by the Spark Layer 2 network for instant, low-fee Bitcoin payments without channel management or node maintenance. The product is available on iOS, Android.
Self-Custodial - Neither Blitz nor Spark has access to your seed phrase or funds. If you lose your seed phrase, access to your funds can be lost. Do not share your seed phrase with anyone.
