Why developers choose Openfort over enterprise custody
Built for builders, not banks
Fireblocks is enterprise custody designed for banks, exchanges, and large treasuries — long sales cycles, heavy compliance workflows, custom contracts. Openfort is developer-first: self-serve onboarding, usage-based pricing, SDKs you can install in five minutes. Ship a consumer wallet or an agent product in days.
ERC-4337 and EIP-7702, native
Openfort treats smart accounts as first-class citizens with native ERC-4337 and EIP-7702 support, built-in paymasters for gasless transactions, session keys, batched operations, and a policy engine. Public benchmarks at openfort.io/benchmarks.
OpenSigner: open-source, self-hostable, audited
Fireblocks’ MPC stack is proprietary. Openfort’s signer, OpenSigner (opensigner.dev), is open-source and self-hostable. Your compliance team can audit it. Your engineering team can run it inside your own perimeter. The most sensitive part of the stack is yours to inspect.
“Openfort has been an instrumental piece of technology for our platform. They helped us from integration to auditing the implementation.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Can't find your answer?
Fireblocks is enterprise digital-asset custody built for banks, exchanges, and large treasuries. Openfort is a developer-first wallet stack for consumer and agent products: embedded wallets, ERC-4337 + EIP-7702 smart accounts, paymasters, session keys, and open-source key management via OpenSigner. If you’re shipping a consumer app, a fintech, or an agentic product, Openfort gets you to production in days. Fireblocks is overkill and underspecialized for that use case.
Yes. Openfort has been audited multiple times by top security firms, uses battle-tested cryptography, and supports TEE-secured backend wallets for server-side operations. Plus, the most sensitive component — key management via OpenSigner — is open-source, so your compliance team can audit the code directly.
Fireblocks focuses on MPC-based custody and treasury operations. Openfort is built around ERC-4337 and EIP-7702 smart accounts with native paymasters for gasless transactions, session keys, and an embedded-wallet experience your users never have to leave your app to use.
Yes, Fireblocks acquired Dynamic in 2025. Dynamic now operates under Fireblocks’ umbrella, which historically serves enterprise rather than developer-focused startups.
Fireblocks uses enterprise contracts with custom pricing. Openfort uses transparent usage-based pricing per operation (wallet creation or transaction). Predictable costs that scale with your product, not your headcount.
Yes. For consumer or agent use cases, you can stand up Openfort alongside Fireblocks and migrate progressively. Many teams keep Fireblocks for treasury and use Openfort for the user-facing wallet stack.
OpenSigner (opensigner.dev) is the open-source, self-hostable key management system that powers Openfort. You can audit it, fork it, or run it inside your own infrastructure.
