About

Designed to instill confidence, transparency, and legal compliance for high-net-worth Bitcoin holders.

1. Security Overview

Core Principle: Zero-Trust Architecture BitGuard Pro operates on a strict "trust nothing, verify everything" framework.

Key Features:

• Multi-Signature Vaults: Every transaction requires cryptographic approval from 3+ hardware wallets (e.g., Ledger, Trezor).

• AES-256 & ChaCha20 Encryption: All data (wallets, transaction history) is encrypted locally.

• Offline Operation: No cloud sync. No internet exposure. SQLite databases stay air-gapped.

• Tor Integration: Optional anonymized node routing for transaction broadcasting.

• Open-Source Audits: Critical cryptographic modules are open-source and peer-reviewed (links provided in Appendix A).

2. Compliance & Legal

Regulatory Alignment: BitGuard Pro adheres to global financial regulations, including:

• FATF Travel Rule: Optional KYC tagging for transactions over jurisdictional thresholds.

• IRS Form 8949 Compatibility: Tax reports pre-formatted for U.S. tax filings.

• EU’s MiCA Regulation: Real-time updates via IPFS-synced regulatory databases.

User Responsibilities:

• Royen does not facilitate illegal activity. Users must comply with local laws.

• Tax reports are tools, not advice. Consult a tax professional.
