How does MPC work?

Multi-party computation (MPC)  wallets boost the security of your Bitcoin, ensuring no single entity or person can threaten your Bitcoin. This is achieved by splitting the Master Private Key into multiple shards that can be stored in secure, secret locations around the globe.

MPC security benefits

Sharding the Bitcoin keys and storing them in undisclosed locations mitigates risks like hacking, phishing, and internal breaches, unlike traditional methods where a single point of compromise can lead to losses.

How does Xapo Bank use MPC?

Every time you initiate a transaction, each of the shards is required to sign the blockchain transaction to reach what is known as a signature threshold. These shards are securely stored around the globe on hardware-based encrypted devices within secure enclaves.
