Line 2

cat mission.txt

The number your wallet rides on.

Specter is a second line, not a switch. One private number you attach only to the accounts your money is tied to: exchange logins, wallet recovery, bank one-time codes. SIM changes require your hardware key. Metadata isn't harvested.

Keep your everyday phone and carrier. Move the one number that matters.

cat threat_model.md

Your two-factor is a phone number.
Phone numbers get stolen.

Every exchange, every wallet recovery flow, every bank still falls back to SMS. The number those codes land on lives with a carrier whose support desk can be talked into moving it. That is a SIM swap, and it is how accounts get drained.

// attack

One phone call to your carrier

An attacker with your name and a few leaked details convinces support to move your number to their SIM. Your codes now arrive on their phone. Your 2FA is theirs.

// why you're still exposed

You can't just switch carriers

Device locks, financing, family plans, a number everyone already has. Our own research found almost nobody actually moves their primary line, however good the privacy pitch is. So we stopped asking you to.

// the fix

Move one number, not your life

Add a Specter line beside your current carrier. Point only your sensitive accounts at it. Nobody else has the number, and nobody can change its SIM without your hardware key in hand.

ls ./how_it_works/

Two numbers. One of them is quiet.

Your phone already supports two lines. Specter is the second one, delivered as an eSIM that runs alongside whatever carrier you have today.

SIM 1 · unchanged

Your phone

Your current carrier · your public number
  • Calls, texts, data, group chats
  • Known to friends, work, delivery apps, everyone
  • Stays exactly where it is
  • Exchange 2FA
  • Wallet recovery
  • Bank one-time codes
SIM 2 · Specter

Your money's line

Private number · known to nobody
  • Exchange login 2FA
  • Wallet and seed recovery contacts
  • Bank and brokerage one-time codes
  • SIM and port changes need your hardware key
  • Port-out lock on by default
  • No metadata retention, no ad tracking

Add the eSIM

Scan once. The Specter line appears next to your existing one. Nothing about your current carrier changes.

Register your hardware key

Any FIDO2 key. From now on a SIM change, a number port, or a new device requires a physical touch on that key. Support cannot override it.

Re-point your sensitive accounts

Change the phone number on your exchange, wallet, and bank to the Specter line. Give it to nothing else. That's the whole protocol.

cat pricing.conf

One line. One price. No tiers.

It's a second line for a specific job, so it costs what a second line should.

not_included.txt
  • Not a replacement for your carrier. Your everyday number, plan, and phone stay where they are.
  • Not an unlimited data plan. The line carries auth codes and the occasional call, not your streaming.
  • Not a VPN. It protects the number your accounts are tied to, not your browsing.
  • Not live yet. Access opens in batches from the waitlist.

cat faq.txt

Questions people actually ask.

Do I have to switch carriers?

No. That's the point. Specter is added as a second line on the phone you already have. Your current carrier, number, and plan don't change.

Will it work on my phone?

Any phone that supports eSIM with dual-SIM: iPhone XS and later, and most Android phones from the last few years. Your existing SIM stays in place.

What actually stops a SIM swap?

Policy, enforced by hardware. Moving your Specter number to a new SIM, porting it out, or activating it on a new device requires a physical touch on the FIDO2 key you registered. There is no support-desk override, so there is nobody to social-engineer.

What if I lose my hardware key?

You register a backup key at setup, the same way you would for an exchange. Recovery never goes through a phone call.

Why not just use an authenticator app?

You should. But most exchanges and every bank still keep a phone number on file as a fallback, and that fallback is the attack surface. Specter is for that number.

What network is the line on?

A nationwide 5G and LTE network. Same towers, same coverage. Specter is the layer on top: who can change the SIM, and what gets logged.

Is it live?

Not yet. We're onboarding from the waitlist in batches. Requesting access reserves a spot; it doesn't charge you anything.

./request_access.sh

Give your money its own number.

Fifteen dollars a month. A second line, not a switch. Join the waitlist and we'll invite you in the next batch.
