Behind the Scenes: June 2021

Zug; 15 June 2021 – Ease-of-use and security – these are two elements which are highly important to us and to clients of Bitcoin Suisse. Wherever and whenever you trade cryptocurrencies with us, we want the experience to be as secure and as smooth as possible.

This is also reflected in the last product developments which we are proud to highlight in this edition of Behind the Scenes.

Bitcoin Suisse Online

1. New views for mobile

When you want to trade – you want to trade with ease, no matter where you are. That is why we’ve upgraded the mobile look and feel for Bitcoin Suisse Online.

Now there is an enhanced navigation experience and an upgraded portfolio view – and most importantly of all, a redesigned flow for making a trade from your smartphone.

2. Enhanced Markets Page

The market page in Bitcoin Suisse Online is now displaying new information, including global market cap, daily best-performing tokens and top losers, as well as filters to show staking coins supported by Bitcoin Suisse.

3. Using the Bitcoin Suisse Vault

For clients who wish to enjoy the additional benefits of the Bitcoin Suisse Vault for custody of their crypto assets, it is now easier to get started – directly from the menu of your Bitcoin Suisse Online account.

Bitcoin Suisse Vault

Speaking of the Bitcoin Suisse Vault, the latest Vault release “Dent Blanche” brought several updates:

1. Proof-of-ownership for Vault withdrawals

In order to facilitate security and smooth compliance for transactions, the Vault now integrates seamlessly with the proof-of-ownership process used by Bitcoin Suisse. This makes it easier to whitelist addresses for withdrawal transactions – another element in the flexible, yet secure setup that the Vault offers Bitcoin Suisse clients.

2. Batched withdrawals

Our API now facilitates batches of withdrawal requests to the Bitcoin Suisse Vault. As we grow, this helps us facilitate more and more movement in and out of cold storage custody for clients. All approval processes remain manual as defined by clients based on their individual needs.

3. Cardano staking support

Holders of Cardano’s native ADA token can now stake their holdings directly from the Bitcoin Suisse Vault. This way your ADA holdings can easily earn staking rewards to grow your portfolio without ever leaving the security of the Vault.

We look forward to bringing you more updates – some very interesting ones – in the next weeks!
