In 2021, we launched the original Jade to make a clear case: a fully-capable hardware wallet that could maintain fully open-source design, both firmware and hardware, with no proprietary secure-element chips or unauditable components.
Four years after launching it, we’ve learned a thing or two about our users. Newcomers needed a faster path off exchanges with less setup friction. Advanced users wanted the camera, better air-gapped signing, and more screen to work with. Naturally, we’ve expanded the Jade lineup to accommodate each audience better with two focused devices: Jade Core and Jade Plus.
Jade Core: The Off-Ramp
Most people taking self-custody for the first time need the same thing. They need to get their bitcoin off an exchange and into their own hands quickly, without a learning curve that scares them off from ever doing so.
That gap between "I know I should self-custody" and "I actually did it" is where most people stall:
Jade Core is built for this exact moment.
It offers the same open-source, blind oracle security model as Jade Plus, features fan-favorite Genuine Check attestation, a vibrant color display, all packaged into a device focused entirely on turning that first, most important self-custody step into a simple, but exciting leap forward.
- Plug in via USB-C.
- Pair over Bluetooth with the Blockstream app.
- Write down and verify your recovery phrase.
Done.
At $99 with free worldwide shipping, Jade Core is the affordable, accessible path to securing generational wealth.
Jade Plus: Advancing Further
Jade Plus sets the standard for maximally capable Bitcoin security. Open-source firmware and hardware, blind oracle security, vibrant color display, built-in camera for air-gapped QR code signing, SD card support, USB-C and Bluetooth connectivity all come together to offer truly next-generation Bitcoin hardware. At the same time, none of these advancements compromise on usability: intuitive firmware makes for a seamless navigation experience that enables and empowers our users. If you love to tinker, you’ll love Jade Plus.
We also introduced durable aluminum body variants that come in a variety of colors: Lunar Silver, Genesis Grey, Sovereign Green, Rose Gold, or Stealth Black. Choose your favorite to match your aesthetic, or use them functionally to color-code your multisignature setup.
Starting at $149, Jade Plus is built for bitcoiners who voyage beyond the basics and need the companion tools to support their self-sovereign life.
