Burner

I'm Cameron, one of the founders at Arx Research. Last year we launched Burner, an easy to use and low cost NFC-based hardware wallet that supports Ethereum and Bitcoin. This week we're announcing Burner Terminal, a point of sale device designed for native tap to pay stablecoin payments. While there are a number of projects that have allowed for cryptocurrency and stablecoin payments via QR code over the years, we believe that in most developed markets the user experience of contactless cards has won for retail payments. We saw some early interest in using Burner for tap payments, however,…

Burner launched on November 15, 2024 with 206 votes, #201 of 4,990 launches that month and more than 90% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 1 year on.

What it does

Burner is a small, secure computer that keeps your digital assets safe. It’s based on the same secure chips used in big, complicated and expensive hardware wallets. However, unlike hardware wallets, you don’t need to be a crypto expert to use it.

Burner is an affordable, credit card-sized NFC hardware wallet for storing, spending, and gifting crypto without the complexity. Just tap and use.

Burner, the simplest way to secure and gift crypto, now available for Bitcoin. With Burner you can safely spend, save and gift Ethereum anywhere. Gift tokens, spend stablecoins and connect to your favorite Dapps. Burner is a small, secure computer that protects your digital assets using the same chips as high-end hardware wallets—without the complexity. It works straight from your browser, no app needed, and it's open source. Despite its size, Burner connects to virtually any dapp—from Safe to Uniswap—via WalletConnect. It's PIN-protected and locks after too many failed attempts. We created Burner to make gifting crypto safe, secure and simple without the need for confusing seed phrases.…from burner.pro

  • Burner NoteJan 2026 · burnernote.com · ▲222

    In 2021 after getting thoroughly sick of Privnote, i built "Burner Note". Even though i didn't promote it in anyway other than a post here and a post on reddit, it ended up getting about 7000(ish) unique users per month. I kinda let it die about 18 months ago but i've resurrected it with some big upgrades. Most botable the app is now truly end to end encrypted (previously was just server side), and I've added dark mode as well as a few other bells and whistles. Feedback welcomed.

  • Lovable▲1,477

    Hey HN! Previous CERN physicist turned hacker here. We've developed a way to make AI coding actually work by systematically identifying and fixing places where LLMs typically fail in full-stack development. Today we're launching as Lovable (previously gptengineer.app) since it's such a big change. The problem? AI writing code typically make small mistakes and then get stuck. Those who tried know the frustration. We fixed most of this by mapping out where LLMs fail in full-stack dev and engineering around those pitfalls with prompt chains. Thanks to this, in all comparisons I found with: v0,…

  • I wasn't quite sure if this qualified as "Show HN" given you can't really download it and try it out. However, dang said[0]: > If it's hardware or something that's not so easy to try out over the internet, find a different way to show how it actually works—a video, for example, or a detailed post with photos. Hopefully I did that? Additionally, I've put code and a detailed guide for the netboot computer management setup on GitHub: https://github.com/kentonv/lanparty Anyway, if this shouldn't have been Show HN, I apologize!
