Security record

Sparrow has not been reviewed for the site's security record yet. The record counts only the maker's own failures — a firmware or app bug, a poisoned update, a breached vendor, weak key generation — and is kept in the wallet hacks review.

Questions

Which coins does Sparrow support?

Bitcoin.

Is Sparrow open source?

Yes. Its source code is public at https://github.com/sparrowwallet/sparrow.

Does Sparrow support multisig?

Yes. Sparrow can hold one key of a multi-signature wallet, where several keys on separate devices are needed to move funds — the setup that survives any single wallet failing.

Is Sparrow custodial?

No. Sparrow is self-custody: the user holds the keys, and nobody else can move the funds.
