Bitcoin.com’s Director of Engineering Andreas Larson joins Graham and David to unpack how the Bitcoin.com Wallet evolved from Cordova to fully native, why custom backends make decentralized UX feel instant, how the team chooses new chains (hint: tooling wins), and what’s next: MPC wallets, biometric onboarding, and fewer approvals. We also cover the VERSE rewards program - cashback on-chain - and staking VERSE to earn tBTC yield.
