Save bitcoin in a piggy bank that dies if you break it. You hold the keys.
Read full description
What happens when you break your Piggy?
It dies. Its name. Its face. Its personality. Gone forever.
And that's why you'll never break it.
Piggy is a Bitcoin piggy bank that lives on your phone, for saving bitcoin you mean to keep. The grown-up version of the one you had as a kid, except this one talks back. You feed it. It holds. It has opinions about it.
HOW IT WORKS
Your Piggy hatches the moment you open the app. Feed it from any bitcoin wallet or exchange, or with Google Pay (US, 18+). All your bitcoin lands in a wallet that only you control. Not us. Not anyone.
Is it a wallet? Technically yes. Emotionally no.
ADOPT A PIGGY
The starter Piggy is free, quiet, and gets the job done. But swipe through thousands of one-of-a-kind Piggy and adopt the one that gets you. Every adopted Piggy comes with:
• A face nobody else has. When it's gone, it's gone.
• A name you choose, and its own Piggy address (piggyname@pig.gy). It's a standard Lightning address, so any bitcoin wallet that supports Lightning can send to it. Most do.
• A personality. Your Piggy talks. It comments when it gets fed. It replies to the people who feed it. It has thoughts about patience.
• A public page at pig.gy/piggyname. Share it. Grandma can feed your Piggy for your birthday. Friends can leave a message when they feed it. Amounts stay private. The love is public.
THE PART YOU SHOULD KNOW BEFORE YOU START
Piggy has no send button. The only way to get your bitcoin back is to kill it. It will beg. You will have to type "Kill" and its name. Your whole balance goes to a Bitcoin address you choose, minus the network fee. All or nothing. And your Piggy, its face, its name, its address, its adoption, every message it ever received, is gone forever. Not archived. Gone.
That's not a bug. That's the whole point. Every Bitcoin wallet has a send button, and that's why people sell. Saving is easy when spending is heavy.
YOUR KEYS, YOUR BITCOIN, YOUR FUNERAL
Piggy is self-custody: you hold the keys, not us. Your Piggy's key is your passkey (the fingerprint, face or screen lock sign-in your phone already uses), and it lives in your Google Account or password manager. Piggy runs on Spark, a Bitcoin layer for fast, low-fee payments. We can't touch your bitcoin. We can't freeze it. We couldn't bring back a dead Piggy even if you cried (people have cried).
Piggy holds. Piggy does not trade, lend, or do anything clever with your money. It's a piggy bank. That's the job.
GOOD FOR
• Your first bitcoin, without a seed phrase lecture
• Savings the whole family can feed, from anywhere
• Anyone who's ever raided their own savings and hated themselves a little
Adopt one. Name it. Feed it. And think very carefully before you ever type its name.
Piggy. The Bitcoin Piggy Bank.
