Topic: A virtual keyboard you can trust. (Read 1190 times)

im smelling something fishy....this has got scam wrote all over it.

my advice. NEVER download third party software on the system that has your wallet.

i love the way they say don't trust an internal built in software, but trust this unlisted program that's not been tested and made by the person trying to promote it..


now that is also saying not only is microsoft built in keyboard risky but using anyone else's creation is. this is the standard scare tactic people use to force people to use their program and only their program.

if your scam radar is not bleeping with what was said in the OP then i suggest you check out a few of the 'sales pitches' these scam artists use to update your awareness.

if you truly are paranoid, you can always program your own virtual keyboard with a few lines of code in visual basic

Anything similar for Mac?

"If you use the windows or other virtual keyboards you are not safe."

do you even read bro?

every win 7 has a built in virtual keyboard..

I found this win32 app very useful.
Even if you use an offline web page like bitaddress (bitaddress.org) to calculate the corresponding bitcoin address of your made up private key, that only you will know (your brainwallet). It is much safer to use the software described below to input your private key of choice.

Anti Keylogger Virtual Keyboard works like other virtual keyboards but the difference is that this Virtual Keyboard protects agaist hardware and software keyloggers. If you use the windows or other virtual keyboards you are not safe.

Anything typed using this windows software shows as a string of unreadable characters: ***********... ... on all sorts of keyloggers.

It is not really true that it is easy to create a new bitcoin address because in a sense all bitcoin addresses already exist and you are not going to create them.
What you (or the computer/software does) is calculate the corresponding bitcoin address for a random or non-random private key.

Note that the computer can calculate in a few seconds the bitcoin address for the corresponding private key in a key pair. But the reverse is mathematically unfeasible and would have to be done by trial and error instead of using calculations that can take less than a second, and would then take millions if not billions of years to find out. Even if we were using the top 500 supercomputers..

Next time you fly to a fiscal paradise don't even use a usb pendrive. Just create a deterministic set of brainwallets, calculate its bitcoin addresses using the offline method described above, top them up randomly in discrete amounts in a range that makes them easy to dispose and let go of, and you are ready to go.

Also may be a good idea to use a portable TOR browser using ironkey USB (from imation) as it allows you to run the browser in a sandbox environment and avoid any leaks.
