Overview
Launched in April 2020, Foundation builds products that make Bitcoin and decentralized technologies accessible to everyone, enabling you to reclaim your digital sovereignty. The tech industry has evolved into a centralized, invasive, pro-censorship hellscape. We relinquish our digital freedom in exchange for convenience, forfeiting control of our personal data and our ability to transact freely and privately. But this wasn't always the case! There was a time when Apple pushed us to "think different," a time when Google lived by the mantra "don't be evil." As a sovereign computing company, Foundation is the antithesis of today's tech conglomerates. Returning to cypherpunk principles, we build open source technology that "can't be evil," that preserves your freedom and privacy by default.
