Blockstream introduced a new self-custodial app at the Bitcoin 2025 conference in Las Vegas, aiming to simplify how users buy and hold Bitcoin. 

The app allows direct Bitcoin purchases with immediate wallet storage, removing the need for third-party control.

Blockstream’s “Future of Finance Runs on Bitcoin” Vision

The latest app builds on Blockstream Green, the company’s existing wallet. The updated version includes support for both Bitcoin and Liquid assets. It features a redesigned interface that works for beginners while keeping advanced options for experienced users.

Users can now choose how they secure their assets. Features such as hardware signing and air-gapped transactions with Blockstream Jade remain available

Also, the app supports 31 languages, making it accessible to global users with just a smartphone.

At the same event, Blockstream shared its new direction for growing the Bitcoin economy. The company’s strategy now focuses on three areas – Consumer, Enterprise, and Blockstream Asset Management (BAM). 

This structure is designed to reach both retail users and institutions.

“The past year has shown clearly that Bitcoin no longer sits on the margins of the global financial system—it is rapidly becoming the foundation. Our vision is simple: The Future of Finance Runs on Bitcoin. Guided by this idea, Blockstream is working hard to build the vertically integrated platform to support that transition,” said Dr. Adam Back, CEO of Blockstream.

In 2024, Blockstream raised $210 million to expand development. That funding also led to the launch of BAM, which builds institutional Bitcoin investment products. 

Since then, the company has expanded its work with custodians, corporate treasuries, and financial service firms. These partnerships aim to bring the Liquid Network and AMP into broader financial use.

The conference reflected growing momentum for digital assets in the US. Vice President JD Vance spoke at the event, offering support for future pro-crypto regulation under the Trump Administration. 

He also disclosed holding a substantial Bitcoin position.
