Passport Prime is Foundation Devices’ latest retail hardware wallet set to be released in Q3 of 2025, aiming to provide high security demands for Bitcoin and crypto software.
It features a full-color touch screen, NFC, encrypted Bluetooth support, 50 GB storage, a powerful Bitcoin wallet app, and serves as a developer platform for app creators to enhance crypto-native cybersecurity.
Foundation aims to address the low adoption of hardware wallets amidst mainstream crypto growth by focusing on security features, user familiarity, and ease of use.
The Passport Prime employs Shamir secret sharing for secure key recovery and utilizes a separate operating system called KeyOS to ensure isolation and security.
To enhance user experience, the device integrates NFC for secure communication and Bluetooth for seamless transactions, with strict security protocols in place to mitigate risks.
The Passport Prime also offers encrypted cloud backup, a virtual YubiKey app, a 2FA app, and apps for various functionalities, providing users with a comprehensive security solution.
Foundation Devices emphasizes a balance between high security and user familiarity in Passport Prime, priced at $299 and featuring Cake Wallet as a third-party KeyOS app.
