The Fireblocks Cold Wallet solution meets the strictest regulatory and insurance requirements while maintaining enterprise-grade Fireblocks MPC-CMP security. Cold Wallet team members can easily sign transactions from the Fireblocks Console using dedicated iOS devices and any computer with a webcam.

Fireblocks recommends a combination of Hot and Cold Wallet workspaces to streamline operations using a single login and unified user experience.

Complete the following steps to begin onboarding to a new Cold Wallet workspace.

Determine user roles

• The Owner is responsible for approving new users and Cold Wallet devices.
• Signers can sign transactions using their Cold Wallet device and any computer with a webcam.
• The Security Manager is typically an IT professional, responsible for configuring new Cold Wallet devices for the Owner and Signers.

Purchase the required Cold Wallet Hardware

• iOS mobile devices*: These should be new and kept in an unopened box until they are configured during onboarding.
  • The workspace Owner requires an iOS Cold device for approving new users.
  • Each Signer requires a dedicated iOS device for signing transactions.
• MacOS computer* with the Apple Configurator app installed: This computer is required for Cold Wallet iOS device configuration and should have a working webcam. It should be maintained by an IT Security Manager.

Prepare your accounts and software

• An Apple ID is required to sign in to the App Store. This ID is used on both the macOS computer and the iOS devices during configuration.
• Install Apple Configurator on the macOS computer using your AppleID.
• Every Fireblocks user requires a 2FA app, such as Google Authenticator, to sign in to their workspace. This can be installed on any personal device other than the Cold Wallet iOS signing devices. Learn more about configuring 2FA with Fireblocks.
