Self-custody.

Your Bitcoin and stablecoins stay in a wallet you control. One passkey replaces the usual password and seed-phrase onboarding. Multisig and recovery stay underneath the simple experience.

How the wallet works →Recovery without Nuri →

ID verification only when a service requires it.

Nuri does not require identity verification to open the self-custodial wallet and does not hold your crypto. If you choose a regulated Visa, banking or cash-out service, that provider may require verification for that service.

Recovery without Nuri.

The wallet is designed so ownership and recovery do not depend on Nuri, a card provider or a bank continuing to operate.

Freedom to transact.

We believe people should be free to hold and send electronic cash directly, person to person, without a middleman or gatekeeper. Bitcoin made peer-to-peer electronic cash possible. Nuri’s job is to make self-custody simple enough for everyday use.

Regulated services around a self-custodial wallet.

Wirex, Monerium and ClickPesa connect Nuri to card, banking, e-money and local payment services. Those services have their own licences, eligibility and terms. They do not become the custody layer for the wallet.

The Nuri story.

Bitwala began in Berlin in 2014, became Nuri in 2021, and the former Nuri company shut down in 2022. Bitwala later returned separately.

In January 2025, Bitwala announced that the Nuri brand and nuri.com were moving to new ownership and would operate independently. Today’s Nuri is a new company and a different product architecture.

The current team comes from Berlin’s long Bitcoin and crypto builder scene. Emin Mahrt is the public founder profile. Cim Topal, Emil Wagner and Lennard Evertz are part of the longer builder story across mining, exchanges, wallets, smart contracts, protocols and payments.

An AI reviewing that history once called the group “the patient pioneers.” The name stuck.

The goal after more than a decade of building: make self-custody simple enough for normal people to use every day.

Use Nuri directly or connect software.

You can use Nuri on web, iOS and Android. Software and AI can also connect through APIs and MCP. Access is limited to permissions you authorize, for example reading information, preparing payments or automating approved tasks.

Open source.

Nuri publishes wallet and recovery tooling so the security model can be inspected instead of taken on trust. The recovery design is intended to let the user recover the wallet without depending on Nuri servers, subject to the required passkey and recovery material.
