Description
The Blockstream Jade Core is a compact, open-source Bitcoin hardware wallet designed to make Bitcoin self-custody simple, secure, and accessible. Whether you are new to Bitcoin or an experienced user, Jade Core helps keep your private keys protected offline while providing a straightforward way to securely send, receive, and manage Bitcoin.
Why choose the Blockstream Jade Core?
Open-source hardware and firmware
Blockstream Jade Core is built around an open-source approach, covering both its hardware and firmware. This allows the technology behind the device to be inspected and reviewed by the wider community, providing greater transparency than closed-source hardware wallet solutions.
For Bitcoin users who value verifiability and transparency, the open-source architecture is one of Jade Core’s key advantages.
Blind Oracle PIN protection
Blockstream Jade Core uses Blind Oracle PIN protection, a security architecture designed to protect the wallet’s sensitive information even if the physical device is compromised.
The Blind Oracle model separates sensitive information so that the device itself does not contain everything required to access the wallet. This provides an additional layer of protection against physical attacks and unauthorized access.
The system is designed so that the Blind Oracle does not have access to the user’s recovery phrase, private keys, Bitcoin addresses, or PIN.
Genuine Check device authentication
Before using a new hardware wallet, verifying that the device is genuine is an important security step.
Blockstream Jade Core features Genuine Check, a cryptographic authentication mechanism that allows users to verify that their Jade device is authentic before setting up and using the wallet.
This provides an additional safeguard when purchasing and initializing a hardware wallet.
Secure Bitcoin self-custody
Jade Core is designed specifically for users who want to take control of their Bitcoin without relying entirely on an exchange or custodial service.
Private keys are protected by the hardware wallet, while transactions can be prepared using a compatible app and then reviewed and approved on the Jade device.
This separation helps reduce the risk of exposing sensitive wallet information to potentially compromised computers or smartphones.
USB-C & Bluetooth connectivity
Blockstream Jade Core supports both USB Type-C and Bluetooth, making it convenient to connect with compatible mobile devices and computers.
Depending on the platform and application, users can choose the connection method that best suits their setup.
Connection options include:
- USB Type-C
- Bluetooth
The device is compatible with the Blockstream App on Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, and Linux, with connection methods varying by platform.
Enhanced color display
The Blockstream Jade Core features a 1.9-inch color IPS LCD display with a resolution of 320 × 170 RGB 16-bit.
The display provides a clear interface for navigating the device and reviewing important transaction information directly on the hardware wallet.
Checking transaction details on the hardware wallet itself provides an additional security step before approving a Bitcoin transaction.
Simple setup in minutes
Blockstream Jade Core is designed to make Bitcoin self-custody accessible even for users who are purchasing their first hardware wallet.
The setup process includes:
- Connecting Jade Core to a compatible device
- Installing the Blockstream App or compatible wallet software
- Creating or importing a wallet
- Setting up a PIN
- Backing up the recovery phrase
- Performing a Genuine Check
- Receiving and sending Bitcoin
With its straightforward interface and compact design, Jade Core is suitable for both beginners and experienced Bitcoin users.
Supports Bitcoin & Liquid Network assets
Blockstream Jade Core is designed primarily for the Bitcoin ecosystem and supports Bitcoin as well as assets on the Liquid Network.
This makes it a suitable choice for users looking for a dedicated hardware wallet focused on Bitcoin and related ecosystem assets.
Compatible with popular Bitcoin wallets
In addition to the Blockstream App, Jade Core can work with several popular Bitcoin wallet applications and tools.
Supported integrations include:
- Blockstream App
- Sparrow Wallet
- Electrum

This flexibility allows more experienced users to integrate Jade Core into their existing Bitcoin self-custody setup.

Blockstream App is available for Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, and Linux, with USB-C and Bluetooth connectivity depending on the platform.
Compact and lightweight design
Blockstream Jade Core is designed to be small enough for everyday carrying without sacrificing the essential features of a hardware wallet.
Its compact dimensions are:
- 65 mm × 30 mm × 12 mm
- 20 g weight
The lightweight plastic body makes Jade Core easy to carry in a pocket, bag, or dedicated hardware wallet case.
Secure backup and wallet recovery
Recovery phrase
During wallet setup, users receive a recovery phrase that can be used to restore access to their wallet if the Jade Core device is lost, damaged, or replaced.
The recovery phrase should be written down and stored securely offline.
Never share your recovery phrase with anyone.
Blockstream will never need your recovery phrase to provide customer support. Users should also avoid storing the recovery phrase in screenshots, email, cloud storage, messaging apps, or other internet-connected locations.
PIN protection
The Jade Core PIN helps prevent unauthorized access to the device.
Users should choose a PIN that is difficult for others to guess and should never share it with another person.
