Bitcharge started in 2018 as a way for anyone to accept crypto payments and tips through a single link instead of a wallet address per chain. The first version quietly gathered 195 users — my first real proof that strangers would use something I built.
Version 2
The rebuild is a proper monorepo — Next.js and React 19 on the front, Fastify and Prisma behind, WalletConnect and multi-chain support throughout. Three sprints in, with a Product Hunt and BetaList launch planned once the core flows are solid.
Why it stays personal
Crypto is legally sensitive for Indian companies, so Bitcharge lives outside the studio — it's the venture I intend to incorporate globally when the product earns it. Coinbox, my local-first portfolio tracker built with Tauri and Rust, is part of the same family.
