Bitcoin.com is upgrading accounts, paving the way for more customization, special features, and improved security | by Bitcoin.com | Sep, 2022

Were changing the way your Bitcoin.com account works. The upgrade will eventually unlock a host of improvements including:

  • More customizable preferences
  • Special features
  • Access to VERSE rewards (coming soon)

For now, the key changes are:

  1. You can create an account via magic link to your email in addition to via Apple/Google OAuths. This means you can make a new account in seconds, without the need to create/manage a new password.
  2. Your Bitcoin.com account will be separated from the automated backup (via Apple/Google cloud) that you use to restore your wallets in the event you lose access to your device.

When is the upgrade happening?

In late September (V7.28).

What action is required?

The upgrade is automatically included with your next update to the app (V7.28).

To access your upgraded account, simply re-sign in on the mobile app. Your funds, as always, are safe, and you wont be logged out of your cloud backup.

Anything else I should know?

  1. To be sure you always have access to your wallets even if you lose your device its essential that you back them up.

You can do manual backups, but we highly recommend the automated backup service where access to all your wallets is granted by a single password that unlocks an encrypted file stored in your Google/Apple cloud account. You just to need to keep that single password safe, and youll always have access to all your wallets, including any new ones you create in the future. Heres how to set it up:

2. To access the Web wallet (app.bitcoin.com), as always, youll need to login in via your account.
