FAQ
What is the Bitpen mini?
The Bitpen is a high-quality engraving pen that allows you to permanently and tamper-proof engrave your Bitcoin and crypto seed phrase into metal.
This is how you protect your Bitcoin from loss due to fire, water or wear and tear – 100% offline, 100% self-custodial.
Why should I engrave my seed in metal?
Paper can burn, absorb water, or become unreadable over time.
Metal resists fire, water, corrosion and mechanical wear and tear, and is the safest way to preserve your Bitcoin backup words for decades.
Who is the Bitpen suitable for?
The Bitpen is designed for all Bitcoin and crypto users who want to keep their own money/wallet.
Whether you're a beginner or a professional – the Bitpen makes securing your seed phrase super easy, fast, permanent and tamper-proof.
When will I receive my order?
Your order will be delivered in 2-3 months. We are still working on the final details of the Bitpen mini circuit board.
How do I use the Bitpen mini correctly?
Choose your cold wallet (e.g., Seedburger, Seedwich, or Seedslice).
Slowly engrave each word of the seed phrase.
After engraving, check that all letters are clearly legible.
Done – your backup is now extremely resilient.
Do I need to take any special protective measures?
Normally you don't need to pay much attention, but if you are unsure, wear gloves and safety glasses when engraving and work on a stable surface.
Make sure the plate is firmly in place to obtain clean engravings, and hold the pen similarly to a felt-tip pen when writing: pressure is not required when engraving.
Which metals can I engrave?
The Bitpen is suitable for stainless steel, titanium, aluminum, copper, and other soft to medium-hard metals. Harder metals could, in extreme cases, damage the Bitpen mini and its replaceable tip.
For Bitcoin backups, we recommend our cold wallets, made of soft stainless steel or titanium grade 1.
How long does shipping take?
We ship within 1-3 working days from Germany if everything you ordered is in stock.
Within the EU, shipping usually takes 2-5 days; internationally, it takes slightly longer depending on the country.
Is the shipping discreet?
Yes, we ship in standard neutral packaging, without any direct reference to Bitcoin or cryptocurrencies.
Is there a warranty on the Bitpen?
Yes, we offer a 2-year warranty on the Bitpen mini and other items when used properly.
