10 are in the ₿ USE · TOOL group, 3 in PROTOCOL and 11 in WRAPPED BTC. 2 support Lightning and 22 are open source. Who holds the bitcoin is stated for all 24: 1 Custodial, 9 Group-held, 3 Non-Custodial, 11 with a custody line instead of a class. 2 carry a notice. 1 also appears under Local Bitcoin.
24 listings, grouped Bitcoin first by label. Inside each group: open source first, then the rest, then listings marked Not recommended, each A to Z here (the interactive directory rotates them weekly). Nothing is hidden. This version needs no JavaScript. Most recent Updated date here: 12 October 2026 (the day a record last changed, not a verification date).
Bitcoin used directly as money, or tools for running, securing and building on it.
Bisq ₿ USE
Decentralized peer-to-peer Bitcoin exchange.
Non-Custodial. Bisq’s wiki says Bisq 1 trade funds and deposits sit in a 2-of-2 multisig held only by the two traders; in Bisq Easy the seller sends bitcoin from their own wallet, with no escrow. Bisq wiki: Manual payout
Boltz ₿ USE
Non-custodial Bitcoin swap service, suspended since 3 August 2026.
Non-Custodial. Only you hold the keys to your bitcoin. Boltz: GitHub organisation page
Advisory · SWAPS DISABLED since 3 August 2026 — founders stepped down, new operators unnamed (2026-10-12)
On 3 August 2026 Boltz disabled its swap service until further notice, citing a steady rise over past months in automated, AI-assisted probing of its infrastructure and several exploits, each of which it said was contained. On 12 August 2026 Boltz announced that all of its original founders had stepped down and that an unnamed group of veteran Bitcoiners, bringing capital and engineering resources, had agreed to take over Boltz with the goal of bringing swaps back “as soon as possible”; it gave no date. Boltz states that no user funds were ever at risk because the service is non-custodial, that the losses were its own, and that unilateral refunds of unfinished swaps work without its servers. As of 12 October 2026 boltz.exchange and api.boltz.exchange do not resolve in DNS, the domain registry lists boltz.exchange with a client hold, and we found no announcement of a replacement address, so treat any site or fork claiming to be Boltz with caution unless Boltz’s own GitHub or X account links to it.
Our position: listed, because Boltz is open-source and non-custodial and its new operators say they intend to bring swaps back; the listing’s website link points to its official GitHub while the domain is offline. The facts above come from Boltz’s own announcements on X and the public domain registry — check them yourself.

Fast native cross-chain swaps — no bridges, no wrapped tokens.

Rango Exchange ₿ USE
Universal cross-chain DEX aggregator — swap BTC across 70+ chains.

RoboSats ₿ USE
Fast, private, KYC-free Bitcoin trading over Lightning.
Custody. RoboSats’ docs say the seller’s sats are locked in a Lightning hold invoice to the coordinator’s node, and that RoboSats has the funds while it pays the buyer or while a dispute is open. RoboSats docs: Escrow
THORSwap ₿ USE
Multi-chain DEX aggregator with native Bitcoin swaps.
Group-held. THORSwap routes swaps through THORChain, whose docs say vaults use a threshold signature scheme that needs a supermajority of validator nodes to sign, and that no complete private key exists. THORChain docs: Bifrost, TSS and vaults
Hodl Hodl ₿ USE
P2P Bitcoin trading with multisig escrow.
Custody. Hodl Hodl says it holds one of the three keys to each trade’s multisig escrow, with the buyer and seller holding the others; a support manager decides disputes, and its newer Arkade escrow adds an operator key. Hodl Hodl: FAQ
Hyperliquid ₿ USE

Group-held. Bitcoin reaches Hyperliquid through Unit, whose docs say its guardians sign with a 2-of-3 MPC threshold scheme and that no single guardian can sign alone. Unit docs: Security

Advisory · EXPLOITED TWICE — about $8.4 million drained in June 2025, $4.3 million in May 2024 (2026-10-12)
On 6 June 2025 an attacker drained several ALEX asset pools through a flaw in its self-listing verification logic; ALEX reported a total loss of $8,373,227 in STX, sBTC, USDC/USDT and WBTC, and said that day it would cover 100% of each affected user’s loss in USDC from the ALEX Lab Foundation treasury. On 8 June 2025 it set out a Treasury Grant Program (TGP) paying “both original tokens and USDC equivalent”, to be paid by 17 June 2025 to users who accepted its terms: STX losses 100% in USDC at 0.68 USDC per STX, sBTC losses 100% in aBTC, aBTC losses (listed as WBTC on 6 June) 75% in aBTC and 25% in USDC, and aUSD losses (listed as USDC/USDT) 91% in aUSD and 9% in USDC. On 17 June 2026 ALEX wrote that “TGP 2025 obligations have already been fully discharged”; we found no independent confirmation that every payment was made. In May 2024 about $4.3 million was lost after private keys were compromised in a phishing attack, according to The Block. ALEX ran a separate grant programme, TGP 2024; in the same 17 June 2026 post it said the final claims period ran from 1 June to 1 July 2026, after which TGP 2024 would formally close. Only use ALEX with funds you can afford to lose, and check its current audits and contracts yourself.
Our position: listed, with this notice, because the platform is still operating; the earlier “largest DeFi platform on Bitcoin” wording was removed because it could not be supported. The facts above come from ALEX’s own posts on X and a report by The Block — check them yourself.
