what's AnchorWatch?

AnchorWatch is a regulated insurance provider specializing in coverage for Bitcoin held in approved cold storage configurations. Backed by Lloyd's of London as a coverholder, it offers property and casualty policies up to $500M for businesses, high-net-worth individuals, and institutions. The company addresses key risks in Bitcoin self-custody, including theft, loss, and physical threats like kidnap and ransom through dedicated crisis response. AnchorWatch's Trident Vault is a collaborative multisig coordinator leveraging Bitcoin's Miniscript for programmable policies, timelocks, and inheritance mechanisms. Users can bring their own hardware like Coldcard, enforce governance to prevent single points of failure, and integrate inheritance planning. This infrastructure enables insured self-custody without relying on centralized custodians.

AnchorWatch's CEO Rob Hamilton will speak at Bitcoin 2026.
