SEOUL, South Korea — July 21, 2026 — D'CENT, a crypto hardware wallet brand used by more than one million people across over 220 countries and regions, announced the global launch of DCENT S, a card-format cold wallet that ships with a dedicated backup card in every package. The main card handles everyday transactions, while the second card, called the R3covery card, restores the wallet if the main card is lost, stolen, or damaged. DCENT S is now available worldwide.
A cold wallet, also known as a hardware wallet, keeps the private key controlling a user's crypto assets isolated from internet-connected environments, out of reach of malware, phishing, and account takeovers, and beyond the platform risk that comes with leaving coins on a centralized exchange. Card-format devices have emerged as a segment of that market aimed at holders who found USB-style wallets too cumbersome to use regularly, with brands including Tangem, Ledger, and Trezor now offering them. The trade-off has typically fallen on backup and recovery, which most devices still leave to a 12- or 24-word seed phrase the user copies out by hand.
D'CENT said DCENT S grew out of that gap. Rather than treating backup as an instruction for the user to follow, the company built it into the hardware and included the second card in every package, so backup is part of the initial setup instead of a separate decision made later.
"Too often, people lose access to their crypto not because of a hacker, but because they lose the paper holding their seed phrase," said Sangsu Baek, CEO of D'CENT. "That is not a user mistake. It is an unsolved design problem, and we took it as ours to solve."
Each card has a different job. The main card is tapped against a smartphone to sign transactions. The R3covery card stays behind, at home or in a safe, and is not carried day to day.
During setup, the main card generates the private key inside its secure element and passes an encrypted backup to the R3covery card, which holds it inside a second secure element. The seed never appears as readable text on a screen or on paper. If the main card is lost or damaged, the owner taps the R3covery card with the D'CENT mobile app and restores the wallet in under 5 minutes, with no reissue request and no support ticket.
DCENT S generates and protects the private key inside a Common Criteria EAL6+ certified secure element, and signing happens inside that same element, so the key is never handed to the smartphone or the app. The card is built to fail closed: anti-tamper protections lock it automatically if the secure element is tampered with or extracted, as do repeated incorrect PIN attempts.
"Card-format wallets have usually been a trade-off, where you accept a weaker recovery story in exchange for something you can actually carry," said Baek. "We designed and manufactured DCENT S in Korea so we would not have to make that trade."
Signing a transaction takes one motion. Users review the amount, destination address, and network in the D'CENT app, then hold the card against the back of their smartphone. There is no cable, no pairing, and no battery to charge. At launch the card works across more than 100 blockchain networks, covering assets from Bitcoin and Ethereum to XRP and ERC-20 tokens, so long-term holders can move coins off an exchange and keep them in self-custody on a single card.
