CoinCover hot storage

Why hot storage wallets need recovery infrastructure

CoinCover provides recovery controls built for hot storage.

Hot wallets exist because crypto operations can't stop to wait. Exchanges settle trades continuously, custodians move client assets on demand, and payment providers process transactions around the clock, all of which depend on keys that are ready to sign the moment they're needed, which is exactly why they need a recovery process built to match that speed.

The benefits of hot storage

Private keys can never be encrypted

Private RSA keys are sharded, double encrypted inside an AWS Nitro enclave and stored online. The enclave provides a hardened execution environment.

Key sharding for reduced concentration risk

Key material is split into shards - no single shard can be used in isolation. This reduces the impact of any single control failure and supports safer operational handling.

Double encryption, with layered protection

Keys are double encrypted within the AWS nitro enclave and can only ever be decrypted within the enclave to complete recovery operations.

Rapid, automated recovery through CoinCover Control

Recovery is initiated and governed through CoinCover Control. Access is restored using defined permissions and processes.
