Proton 开放自助托管比特币钱包的抢先体验

Proton 是一家专注于隐私的服务提供商，以其电子邮件客户端而闻名，开放了自我托管比特币钱包的早期访问权限。

Proton, known for its privacy-focused email service, has opened up early access to a self-custodial Bitcoin wallet.

Proton 以其注重隐私的电子邮件服务而闻名，已经开放了自我托管比特币钱包的早期访问权限。

The wallet integrates with Proton's existing privacy infrastructure and is available to Proton Visionary and Lifetime users.

该钱包与 Proton 现有的隐私基础设施集成，可供 Proton Visionary 和 Lifetime 用户使用。

While the wallet currently only supports Bitcoin, Proton CEO Andy Yen hinted in the announcement post that "the type of assets that you can hold in Proton Wallet may evolve over time as we add more capabilities."

虽然该钱包目前仅支持比特币，但 Proton 首席执行官 Andy Yen 在公告中暗示，“随着我们添加更多功能，您可以在 Proton 钱包中持有的资产类型可能会随着时间的推移而变化。”

Proton Wallet also simplifies sending and receiving Bitcoin.

Proton 钱包还简化了比特币的发送和接收。

Leveraging Proton Mail's encrypted key management, users can send Bitcoin by entering the destination account's email address, eliminating the need for traditional wallet addresses.

利用 Proton Mail 的加密密钥管理，用户可以通过输入目标帐户的电子邮件地址来发送比特币，从而无需使用传统的钱包地址。

任何拥有与 Proton 钱包关联的 Proton 账户的人都可以使用此功能，从而可以轻松进行资产转移，而无需将私钥信息委托给第三方。

Emphasizing Proton's role beyond the crypto domain, Yen stated, "We are not a crypto company. We do not speculate in crypto, we are not a crypto exchange, and we do not participate in crypto lending."

Yen 在强调 Proton 在加密领域之外的作用时表示，“我们不是一家加密公司。我们不进行加密投机，我们不是加密交易所，我们也不参与加密借贷。”

However, he added, "Having said that, we do believe in the principle of giving you control of your financial freedom."

然而，他补充道，“话虽如此，我们确实相信让你控制自己的财务自由的原则。”

The Swiss-based company's services, including email, password management, VPN, and cloud storage, are all protected by end-to-end encryption.
