We are proud to announce the integration of Internet Computer Protocol (ICP) into AirGap. At AirGap, we are committed to making self-custody as user-friendly and accessible as possible. With our two-device approach, we prove that security and ease of use can coexist.
As we have expanded our support for different currencies over the years, we are proud to now also offer integration with the Internet Computer Protocol (ICP), a blockchain that was highly requested by our community.
We are delighted to have worked closely with ICP to make this integration a reality and look forward to continued collaboration and growth on this exciting platform.
Internet Computer Protocol
The Internet Computer Protocol (ICP) is a blockchain infrastructure built by Dfinity, a non-profit organization dedicated to advancing decentralized technology. Their goal is to create a new Internet that is more secure, decentralized, scalable, and innovative.
ICP is an open source decentralized network that aims to revolutionize the Internet by providing a new way to build and run applications. This next-generation computing infrastructure provides scalability, decentralization, security, and high performance.
ICP uses a unique "threshold relay" consensus mechanism that allows it to reach consensus quickly and securely even with a large number of nodes. The network also features an Internet Computer virtual machine, which provides a secure and scalable platform for hosting decentralized applications.
For example, traditional blockchains are designed to support only smart contracts, similar to the backend and database in Web 2.0, however, the ICP infrastructure supports hosting complete Dapps, including both front-end and back-end components.
The ICP Network envisions a new Internet that prioritizes security, decentralization, scalability, and innovation. It provides a secure and scalable alternative to the current Internet and a new way to build and run decentralized applications.
AirGap Integration for ICP
Through its integration with ICP, AirGap positions itself at the forefront of the decentralized revolution and is committed to providing its users with the best experience on the new Internet, which also provides users with an easy-to-use and secure ICP token mobile, web and PC wallet.
Now, AirGap’s vast global user base will be able to securely store their ICP assets while keeping their private keys offline.

About AirGap
AirGap is a software wallet that turns a spare phone into a hardware wallet, it does this by using two apps, AirGap Vault and AirGap Wallet, which can be downloaded from the Appstore, Google Playstore or directly as an APK.
AirGap Vault
AirGap Vault is a blockchain-agnostic and interoperable crypto vault that turns your phone into a hardware wallet. No matter what device you use, it will not be connected to any network. The system built into the app makes it more secure than ordinary crypto wallets.
Transactions are signed using a verifiable QR code, which opens up a variety of possibilities for interaction with other solutions and wallets.
AirGap Vault can be used with other companion applications such as AirGap Wallet, MetaMask, Sparrow Wallet, BlueWallet, Spectre, and other QR code-based wallets.
These companion apps act as observation-only wallets, allowing users to view portfolios and initiate trades, while Vault signs transactions and protects their private keys offline.
AirGap Wallet
AirGap Wallet is a dedicated observation-only wallet alongside AirGap Vault, this separation helps provide optimal security when handling your funds.
