Announcement:
Keystone is already compatible with BTCPay Server but it still hasn’t completed the development of its version to become compatible with our Keystone wallet. When BTCPay Serve releases a compatible version, we will be sure to issue an announcement and update our tutorials accordingly.
With firmware versions V1.1.1 (BTC-Only) or newer running on Keystone Essential or Pro , you can set BTCPayServer as a watch-only wallet that functions as the companion app for Keystone Essential or Pro.
