Green The All-In-One Bitcoin Wallet with Alessandro Saglimbeni

Episode Summary

Welcome back to Blockstream Talk. Today, we're speaking with Alessandro Saglimbeni for a deep dive on Blockstream's Green wallet. After recently completing public beta testing, and launching a newly redesigned mobile version, Alessandro gets us caught up on the new UI, features, and how Blockstream tries to strike a balance between security solution for both new and power users, as well as new features in the pipeline for green, like lightning network payments and cold storage watch only wallets. We also talk a bit about Jade, Blockstream's hardware wallet, how it can interact with green, and if you can really use it to mine bitcoin. And as always, if you found this episode useful, don't forget to subscribe, and share it with your network.
