Overstock’s Medici Ventures Launches Bitsy Cryptocurrency Wallet and Exchange

Today, Medici Ventures announced that its portfolio company Bitsy.com has launched the limited beta edition of a high-tech digital wallet service that aims to develop a simple, secure, and convenient bridge between fiat currencies and cryptocurrencies.

Bitsy Wallet to Offer Cool New Features

They retain complete control over their funds, including the ability to transfer and spend. Biometric security measures like fingerprint scanning and facial recognition will help protect against hacks and lost passwords. In case a wallet is lost or destroyed, Bitsy’s key recovery system will offer a unique way to recover funds, a patent-pending mechanism to regenerate private keys in dire situations.  Read more...
