The strongest security claim is one you can check without asking us. Here is what you can confirm independently.
Issued and shown to both parties before you send anything to it.
How many signatures are required to move funds, and whose.
At any point during the deal, without asking us.
In and out, permanently, on the public ledger.
Honesty about what this arrangement cannot do is what makes the rest of the page worth believing.
We countersign every release, so a completed deal needs our signature and not only yours and your counterparty’s. We sign within one working day of both parties approving, and we will tell you if we are not going to. The address underneath is a 2-of-3, so if we were ever gone entirely the two of you would still hold the signatures needed to move the funds without us.
Permanently, by anyone, including us. That is the cost of an arrangement where no single party can move your money. A provider who can recover from two lost keys was never actually constrained by the third.
Funds in escrow are not protected by any deposit insurance scheme, anywhere.
If you send to the wrong address, including one given to you by someone impersonating us, neither we nor anyone else can recover it. Always confirm the address through a channel you started.
Asset, amount, both parties, delivery terms. We will confirm whether we can act and exactly what it costs before you commit to anything.
