WHAT IS BITCOIN?
Bitcoin is a decentralized cryptocurrency based on blockchain technology. Unlike traditional currencies controlled by central banks or governments, Bitcoin operates through a peer-to-peer network with no central authority. Bitcoins are created through "mining," where powerful computers solve complex problems to add new blocks to the blockchain, earning miners new bitcoins as a reward.

Key features of Bitcoin include decentralization, limited supply (capped at 21 million), anonymity in transactions, low transaction fees, and global acceptance as a form of payment.

Relai used to be great, no ID, just a bank transfer to a self-custodial wallet with access to your 12-word seed. Now in 2025, they force ID, biometric scan, and EU citizenship. I got locked out as a EU resident, and they removed the seed phrase view with no warning. Support was useless and blocked my account. Thankfully I had an old app version to recover my funds. Total betrayal of what the app used to be. Avoid at all costs!

Don't click on "Logout" in the app. This forces you to re-enter your whole seedphrase! Annoying...

Can't log in anymore, FaceID? I don't share my face with online services. Old review:Love their approach, more than solid! Please take this seriously: your seed phrase*must* be stored offline safely. Requested improvements: do not share any of my data with third parties, be transparent about all fees (even the spread), and I'd like more control of execution time. 5 stars when a dark theme is here; Relai please do your part in preventing eye cancer ;). My bank suc*s, open-source money is the way!
