Edge’s first product, a bitcoin wallet, and business directory, was launched in the winter of 2014, under the company name of “AirBitz”. Like many others, Airbitz was inspired by the bitcoin revolution and set out from day one to build tools that kept bitcoin users safe and in control.
The Airbitz Bitcoin Wallet was the first application of a security model Edge coined as “Edge Security”. By the end of 2015, Edge had packaged the tools that made the Airbitz Wallet into a software development kit (SDK) that developers could use for their own applications. It, therefore, provides a platform for developers to create applications with the capacity for data backup, blockchain, and individual messaging. The “Edge Security” SDK has since been integrated into blockchain projects such as Augur, Wings, and OpenLedger.
In 2017 Airbitz began focusing on data security solutions and multi-asset wallets.
