Some essential characteristics of Branta. Alignment: - Open Source - Helps users be sovereign by safely getting into Cold Storage - Wallets supported are all @OpenSats funded projects, in line with ethos Uniqueness: - Branta acts as Guardrails for being a Sovereign Individual - Does not touch private keys or make transactions - At the Nexus of Wallets, Exchanges, and Signing devices Finally, Bitcoin is either in motion or at rest. At Rest / In Custody: Phase 1: Hardcoded PGP-verified SHAs: Good for offline devices only. Phase 2: API based SHAs. Okay for short term. Phase 3: NOSTR Web of Trust integration. Likely can endure. In Motion: Where are you sending your #Bitcoin? We're solving this next.

We're building Branta for the Bitcoiners (we are all satoshi). 1. Launch Sparrow; instant notification of wallet PGP status 2. Monitor inbound/outbound IP connection Sparrow is making: 170.75.162.55 --> Lunanode Hosting Inc. 104.22.78.164 --> Cloudflare, Inc. 103.165.192.203 --> Mempool Space K.K. 93.95.231.89 --> RIPE NCC Information is your friend.
