Backup and restore your wallet in just a few clicks with the help of your friends and family, crypto-natives or not, technical or not (yes, even your grandma!)

You’ll always have the peace of mind knowing you can regain access to your assets whenever you need. It’s fully self-custodial, there are no passwords to remember and no complicated on-chain procedures to learn. At BackupBuddy, we believe everyone deserves an easy and secure backup solution for their digital assets.
What if your seed-phrase ends up in your washing machine? Or accidentally thrown away by your cleaning-obsessed roommate? Or your phone got stolen and therefor your access to your smart account wallet? Most of the time, you only realize you need your seed phrase—or any recovery option—when it’s already too late: switching devices, upgrading your Ledger, or trying to recover a lost or stolen phone.
Losing access to your crypto wallet is one of the most distressing experiences imaginable. Today’s “solutions” force you to choose between writing down a fragile seed phrase—easily lost, damaged, or stolen—or entrusting your keys to a centralized entity or software provider’s cloud service, like Google or Apple, effectively surrendering your self-custody to a third party.
As Vitalik Buterin has noted, social recovery—where a circle of trusted contacts helps you regain access—is a far superior model. But existing implementations are often too technical, require specialized “guardian” software, or only work with EVM-style wallets. To draw a picture in the real world, you’d leave your spare house key with family or close friends—so why can’t those same people help you recover your digital keys?
BackupBuddy changes the game by making social recovery intuitive, universal, and secure—so even your grandma can be one of your guardians.
With BackupBuddy, backing up your wallet—and recovering it when necessary—has never been easier.
