History & Background

BlueWallet launched in 2018 and became the go-to mobile Bitcoin wallet for Lightning Network users. It pioneered Lightning custodial vaults (LNDHub) and watch-only wallet support, making it popular for both beginners and technical users.

WalletGuard tracks every official release of BlueWallet and cross-references download hashes against the developer-signed artifacts so you can verify what you install.

Who should use BlueWallet

Best for: Bitcoin mobile users who want Lightning Network payments, watch-only wallets, and optional connection to their own Bitcoin node.

Custody type: Self-custody

Risk profile: Open-source hot mobile wallet. Keys stored on device. Custodial LNDHub vaults shift custody to a third party — use non-custodial Lightning when possible.

Self-custody notice: BlueWallet is a hot wallet. Your keys are stored locally on your device or browser. For large holdings, consider pairing with a hardware wallet. Never share your seed phrase with anyone.

Common scam patterns targeting BlueWallet users

  • Fake mobile clones with a near-identical name or icon, distributed through search ads.
  • Phishing websites mimicking bluewallet.io with a typo or subdomain.
  • Social media accounts impersonating BlueWallet support and requesting seed phrases.
  • Modified installers distributed on file-sharing sites or Telegram channels claiming to offer an "early version".

Pre-install security checklist

  • Verify you are on the correct official domain: bluewallet.io
  • Compare SHA-256 hash of your download against the values on this page before running anything.
  • Check that the version number matches the latest release listed here (v7.1.0).
  • Never enter your seed phrase anywhere except the wallet application itself.
  • For significant holdings, use a hardware wallet for signing instead of a hot wallet.
