I just got access to Proton Wallet earlier today. Is there anything you’d like to know?

Q&A

  • I’m on a family plan and have been a paying customer for about 2/3 years.
  • I haven’t bought any Bitcoin yet but will report back on that once I have.

I just set it up as well. Nothing groundbreaking, but clean interface. Haven’t used the btc via email function yet.

My only concern would be if there was some sort of breach that affected my proton credentials (yes, I realize the odds are low), then that would also give access to my wallet (and passwords, but not using that).

This might be good for a hot spending wallet, but not sticking anything substantial in there.

You can set a passphrase for the wallet as well as far as I know.

Yeah, correct.
