Offline Transaction Signing
Keep private-key operations on an isolated signing device.
AirGap Link bridges connected and isolated devices to help you sign blockchain transactions without exposing your private keys to an internet-connected environment.
THE PROTOCOL
A deliberate four-step flow keeps transaction preparation and private-key operations in separate environments.
Create a transaction on your connected device without exposing your private key.
Transfer the unsigned transaction to the isolated signing device using a supported method.
Review transaction details and sign it on the isolated signing device.
Return the signed transaction to the connected device for network submission.
Actual signing, supported transfer methods, and blockchain compatibility depend on implementation.
BUILT AROUND SEPARATION
Keep private-key operations on an isolated signing device.
Design a clear communication flow between online and offline environments.
Display transaction details for review before signing.
Design the system so private keys never need to leave the signing device.
Explore QR codes and other supported methods for moving transaction data.
Prioritize explicit confirmation, clear warnings, and separation of concerns.
INTERACTIVE PROTOCOL DEMO
A guided simulation of transaction data moving between environments. Nothing is signed. Nothing is broadcast.
SECURITY PHILOSOPHY
AirGap Link is built around a simple principle: transaction preparation and private-key operations should be separated. By keeping signing on an isolated device, the architecture aims to reduce exposure to threats targeting connected environments.
AIRGAP LINK ARCHITECTURE
Every payload is visible. The key never joins the journey.
ROADMAP
Each phase is planned, not promised. The work starts with clear assumptions and observable behavior.
Define device separation, transaction flow, and security assumptions.
Build a simulated transfer interface and offline-signing workflow.
Test transaction validation, device communication, and signing isolation.
Investigate supported blockchains, formats, and device integrations.
FAQ
An offline-signing and device-communication concept designed to separate transaction preparation from private-key operations.
The intended architecture keeps private keys on the isolated signing device. Actual security depends on the implemented system.
Blockchain support depends on the transaction formats, signing standards, and integrations implemented.
The initial website demo is a simulation and does not perform real signing or broadcast transactions.
No. Isolation can reduce certain risks, but device compromise, malicious transaction data, implementation flaws, and other threats remain possible.
