The goal of the Pillar Project is to return control over personal data back to its rightful owner - you.
Starting with an open-source wallet to store, transact, and track cryptocurrencies and tokens, the Pillar Wallet will evolve into a decentralised, personal data-management platform.
Our data is getting more concentrated in the hands of a few large institutions while the threat of corruption, theft, sale, and loss grows. This is a security risk.
We rely on centralised institutions to store important data:
• Shopping habits
• Location
• Browsing history
• DNA
• Medical information
• Driving history
• Bank records
• Trading history
• Credit scores
