Blockstream product copy guides

The rebrand consolidates everything around the Blockstream master brand: sub-brands out, names chosen by function, a from-scratch design system, all copy rewritten value-first. Each package holds one product's current documented copy standards, cited to source, plus the gaps needing decisions. Review and send feedback to Brady Tinnin.

  • Renaming: function and value, no acronyms, lockups of three words or fewer
  • Design: from-scratch living design system; no legacy UI survives
  • Copy: value-first hierarchy, jargon out, one tone across consumer, enterprise, developer

Enterprise naming locks mid-August. Copy and design target H2 2026 alongside the Enterprise Custody, AMP GA, and Simplicity launches, without blocking them.
