Panama City, Republic of Panama (PinionNewswire) — VaultCoin Ecosystem today announced the presale of VLTC, the native utility token that powers its Hybrid Custody Ecosystem – a decentralized crypto custody architecture designed to make Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies Unstealable, Unlosable, and Unconfiscatable.
The VLTC presale marks the first major step in launching on-chain staking and the Sentinel Network, a global set of professional and community service providers who co-secure users’ assets in Hybrid Custody Vaults™. These vaults merge the best of self-custody and managed custody, eliminating single points of failure while preserving user control.
“Crypto has a three-trillion-dollar security problem. We’re solving it at the protocol and service layer, and VLTC is the coordination fuel that makes it all work,” said the VaultCoin founding team in a joint statement, referring to industry estimates of trillions of dollars in at-risk and already-lost crypto due to private-key failures.
Solving Crypto’s Private-Key Problem
Today, losing or leaking a private key can mean losing a lifetime’s savings, and there is no “forgot password” or dispute mechanism in traditional crypto custody. Research suggests that 3–4 million BTC may already be permanently lost due to key loss alone, representing hundreds of billions of dollars in stranded value.
VaultCoin’s Hybrid Custody Vaults™ use:
- Dual private-key architecture – one key held by the user, one by a chosen Sentinel (Hybrid Custody Service Provider).
- Interactive zero-disclosure proofs and smart contracts to enable recovery without revealing sensitive information.
- A two-step unlock and spend workflow with a configurable on-chain delay, allowing users and Sentinels to detect and override malicious activity before funds can move.
This design enables powerful recovery paths whether a private key is lost or stolen, and also supports seamless inheritance flows without complex legal or technical setups.
VLTC, Staking, and the Sentinel Network
Sentinels are specialized service providers who offer co-signing, recovery, and inheritance services for users’ vaults. To join the Sentinel Network, earn fees, and build staking pools, Sentinels must acquire and stake VLTC on-chain. Other VLTC holders can stake alongside Sentinels via these pools and earn a share of the fees generated from protected assets.
A small percentage fee from assets protected in Hybrid Custody Vaults is pooled and later swapped for VLTC in open markets, with the resulting tokens distributed among ecosystem stakeholders – aligning long-term incentives across users, Sentinels, and token holders.
The VLTC presale is therefore essential to:
- Bootstrap the Sentinel Network globally.
- Launch staking and staking pools.
- Secure the Hybrid Custody infrastructure from day one by ensuring that the participants who protect user funds are economically invested in the ecosystem.
Guardian Wallet: Flagship Gateway to Hybrid Custody
The Guardian Wallet – a next-generation, credit-card-sized hardware wallet paired with intuitive mobile apps – is the flagship platform of the Hybrid Custody Ecosystem. Users can manage their Bitcoin and other assets exactly as they would with current hardware wallets, but with the added option to move funds into Hybrid Custody Vaults for recovery and inheritance benefits.
Guardian Wallet stores private keys securely while enabling vault setup, termination, and recovery directly from the app, putting the full power of Hybrid Custody into a user-friendly, mobile-first experience.
Initially, Guardian Wallets will be distributed exclusively to VaultCoin holders, giving presale participants and early community members priority access to the platform.
Backed by Peer-Reviewed Cryptography
The Hybrid Custody and Smart Vaults concepts behind VaultCoin have been vetted and validated by leading academic cryptographers. Research by teams at Cornell University (USA) and Technion (Israel) demonstrates that Smart Vaults represent one of the most secure known approaches to protecting Bitcoin and similar cryptocurrencies, and this work has been accepted to ACM CCS 2024, a flagship security conference.
This deep research foundation differentiates VaultCoin from purely marketing-driven token launches and underscores its focus on real cryptographic security, not hype.
