Self-custody with time to react

Crypto should not move at the speed of panic.

Slowlyy is a self-custody wallet built around deliberate delay. Outgoing transfers do not leave instantly, which gives you time to catch theft, coercion, and expensive mistakes before they become final.

Why slowly? Most self-custody products optimize for speed. Slowlyy treats time as part of security.

Withdrawal timeline

A transfer should have a cooling period.

Request 0.42 BTC
Destination bc1q...9x4m
Current state Pending release
Step 01 Request initiated

The transfer is submitted, signed, and logged.

Step 02 Cooling period

Time exists for review, cancellation, and recovery if something looks wrong.

Step 03 Final release

Funds move only after the delay has completed.

Self-custody fails fast.

In most wallets, the worst moment is also the fastest one. If a phone is stolen, malware gets access, or a tired user approves the wrong transfer, funds can disappear in minutes. Passwords and 2FA help, but they do not change the fact that irreversible money movement happens too quickly.

Slowlyy adds time to the threat model.

Instead of treating speed as a feature, Slowlyy treats it as a risk. Outgoing transactions wait before release. That waiting period creates room to review, to notice something suspicious, and to stop damage before it becomes permanent.

Product state

The live product today is built to demonstrate the withdrawal model clearly. Mainnet is being shaped around the same principle, with longer configurable delays and stronger hardening.

Live now

Testnet

  • 30 minute transfer delay so the core idea is visible immediately.
  • Uses testnet funds only, with no real value at risk.
  • Best way to understand the product flow before mainnet exists.
  • Seed phrase is shown once and should be stored offline as a recovery fallback.
In development

Mainnet

  • Configurable 3 to 30 day delay for materially stronger protection.
  • Planned support for Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB, and Cardano, with more to follow.
  • Security hardening, cancellation logic, and recovery-oriented UX are still in progress.
  • The goal is not just custody, but time to respond when something goes wrong.
