A code host you sign in to with a Bitcoin Cash wallet. No email, no password reset, no middleman.

Your wallet is your account

Generate or import a BCH wallet in the browser. Sign one challenge, you're in. Nothing to remember except your recovery phrase.

Storage on Sia

LFS, releases, packages, attachments — all sharded and encrypted across independent Sia hosts worldwide. Live git stays on a fast local disk for speed.

Standard git, nothing weird

git clone, git push, PRs, issues, releases, container/npm registries. Bring your existing muscle memory.
