Topic: [ANN] BITHD watch – A Wearable Cold Wallet for Cryptocurrencies (Read 951 times)

After 18 days bouncing around China & Malaysia tracking finally shows that it is heading to the US.

I know I have said it before to many other businesses, get a distributor in North America. Even if it's a private person who you can trust with 10 or so items on a shelf in their house. There are many things I have not ordered because of shipping times when I would have paid $10 to $20 more if I knew it was coming in a few days instead of a month or so.

Stay safe.

In the BitHD wallet (this is the first open-source hardware wallet supporting the ERC20 token) support for GUSD stable coin is now fully available

I ordered one from Amazon. Delivery estimate is  May 19, 2020 - June 10, 2020 is that normal or is it because of the corona mess?
I know I posed about it before but having stock for delivery in other locations might help you sell more.
Will post a review once it arrives.

Stay safe.

First of all, BitHD series are 100% open-source, check it out: https://github.com/bithd .
The software is a secondary development based on Trezor source code.

Secondly, we do not only inherit the merits and security foundation of Trezor, we also add a lot of new features to enhance the security especially to the wearable wallet model.

A simple example: if a thief stole your Bithd Watch, the PIN code input attempts intervals would increase (e.g. 5s, 10s, 30s, 1min, 5min…) as he tries to breach your wallet.
Given that, you, as the owner, have enough time to restore your wallet with the seeds/private keys on a new BitHD Watch or a hot wallet once you realize you have lost your watch.

Nice but not very interesting for me. Without going into software detail, I wouldn't feel safe turning my money around with my wrist.
The idea of ​​running around with lots of money scares me at the thought.

Water proof test of BITHD

Check out the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJ9Uu8iD1fQ&feature=youtu.be

To tell a wallet is "cold" or "hot", the only standard is whether it's connected to network or not. Bitpie is a hot wallet; and BitHD is a cold wallet.

Although most people won't carry a cold wallet along with them when going out, some people do have the need of carrying a cold wallet with them when going out. If someone is on a business trip, he must have a safer way of carrying a cold wallet. BitHD is very suitable for this occasion.

Clearly, the more broaderly applicable wallet is Razor, because it can be put right into your cardholder/ pocket.
About Razor: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.50060978

Nevertheless, which one is better depends on users' specific preference and needs.

I agree, Bitpie should call it as wearable hot/hardware wallet instead of cold (as introduced on first post)
advertising it as wearable cold wallet would confuse newcomers on the basic idea of a cold wallet
you wouldn't carry your (true) cold wallet everywhere you go, would you?

The watch is one of our Cold wallet products and in China u don`t need to worry  too much about it. But also we have Razor, a card design cold wallet. It will match ur needs.  Check this out: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/razor-a-card-design-hardware-wallet-safe-simple-5122243
Also, any questions pls feel free to ask in our telegram group: t.me/BitpieInternational

I also have second thought buying this watch, I am very private when it comes to storing my coins, I will never go out of the house with all my coins with me, it's too risky, even if people do not know that you have your cryptos in your watch.

Chinese products with cheap price but low quality? I must say: not us.
As u can see in the description: 1、We have 5 years experience in cryptocurrency wallet development；2、We have good reputation in China mainland、Japan and Hong Kong etc；3、We have the capability to support multiple blockchain like: Bitcoin、Ethereum、EOS、Tron blockchain etc. And we are planning support Lightning Network.
But your concern and suggestions are reasonable. We are appreciate for all the feedback either. And I am glad that I can also introduce u the other two products we are selling:【Razor】a card design cold wallet & 【Frozen Armor】a newly-made Seeds/Mnemonics Recovery .
U can check out the links below
【Razor】https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.50060978
【Frozen Armor】https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5120461.new#new

Yeah, we know that users in different areas have different concerns. So they must have different demands for cold wallets. That`s why we also have

• Razor

A Card Design Hardware Wallet

• Frozen Armor

A newly-made Seeds/Mnemonics Storage
And u can buy them easily via Amazon and Indiegogo (will attach link later)

Hey, Guy. U don`t know much about China. China is Very safe, nobody dares to rube u even u walk alone on the street during midnight. I thought currently they are mainly selling in China, that's y they consider more on convenience and hardware safety than the risk of been rubbing. But It's not wise to do it in any other countries.

They can be sold in - Economy > Marketplace > Goods -  section of the forum. Hope that helps.

We may consider to sell them in our wallet through BTC and other cryptocurrencies, especially through Lightning Network!!
As for on this forum, I don't know whether it is allowed to sell mechandise here. Can anyone answer my question?

Great product. Will it be available to buy on this forum for BTC ? Thanks

Thank you for your suggestion. We will list it on amazon and other online shops. Definitely it will be $ priced.

I thought it is Japanese Yen as well when I visit the link to buy it. A bit shocked to be honest because the price is so cheap if using Japanese Yen Probably you need to use $ to make it easier, at least no one will be misunderstand about the price like me before.

It's not Japanese yen; it's Chinese Yuan=¥899, i.e. 118 EUR.
We will list it on Amazon and eBay. Please stay tuned!

Its a cool device but not really ideal on storing up crypto.What wallet you are referring to?


Small fingerprint scanner or voice recognition wont work if someone would threat you a $5 wrench. 

A very cool device, I'd love to have it. I checked the webpage, and I found it costs 899 yen, i.e. 8 EUR. Is it true?

BITHD's launch of the USDT Multiple Signature Function marks that BITHD comes to be the world's first Ever Hardware Wallet that integrates simultaneously the Multi-sig upon the 4 Major Cryptocurrencies: BTC, ETH, EOS and USDT.

Among them, the the multi-sig of ETH, EOS and USDT are the first multi-sig solution worldwide as well.

https://github.com/bithd/bithd-mcu/blob/bithd/firmware/eos.c
https://github.com/bithd/bithd-mcu/blob/bithd/firmware/ethereum.c

 :)I have been looking for a hardware wallet for a long time. I just saw the crowdfunding information on the indiegogo.com about BITHD. I am very interested in that. Plus, it's price is not expensive. I want to give it a shot.

Back to 4 years ago, Bither is my first bitcoin wallet ,and now i am using Bitpit to manage my USDT.
It is good to know this team are about to ship a hardware wallet, looking forward to it.

You make a very valid point here, this will surely make you a target for robbers and thieves and pick pockets, if they recognize these watches on the street. It is also easy to look over someone's shoulder when they enter the pin code to access the device. 

I guess the same can be done with wallets on your mobile phone, but a watch like this might be easier to recognize when they become more popular.

A small fingerprint scanner could solve this problem or some kind of voice recognition. 

Exactly - the watch should be marketed as a hot wallet, not cold wallet.

I think title may be a bit confusing, this is not cold wallet in the literal sense of the word, since this wallet watch is use bluetooth communication with phone in order to send/receive transaction. Actually it works on the same principle as new Ledger Nano X, and we know that this is hardware wallet.

This watch hardware wallet is just simpler way to use your HW if you are have the need to travel and spend/receive coins on the go. Since many people have problems that customs is checking their devices on airports, this watch may be fairly safe way (for now) to take your crypto across borders.

In connection with this, I'm interested if this watch can only show time as an ordinary watch or it is always show coin balance with time&date? In my opinion there should be option to show only time, which would significantly contribute to privacy. Imagine someone ask you what time is it, and you show him your watch saying : Balance BTC 18 BTC, time 12:12:12...

I am new to crypto, all coins are stored on exchange, I am thinking about buying Ledger, Trezor or your product, I know both of them are open-source, so I can't see the difference of security issue.

Even if not telling about it, the user will surely be robbed by having it on their wrist as once this comes out, those who're in the muse of fetching it all away from the user will become alert and do whatever they can (at their local premises only as they already know about the watch now) to rob you and suck out even the last drop of your whole crypto savings. I believe there is one project where the devs are developing something like a chip that can be installed in our hand and we can use our wallet through our eyes being scanned and what not. If that becomes possible, I don't see any reason as to why people would go for such things that could be life-threatening to them.

The same can be said about carrying a conventional wallet holding fiat. I doubt anyone would be stupid enough to carry a lot of crypto on your wrist. This is more likely intended as a wallet for small (daily) transactions.

I guess it will go under the disguise of just a simply watch, unless you tell others that you have a cold wallet in you. But nevertheless, I won't be comfortable as well, I'm not a frequent traveler but I guess this is what the company is targeting as a potential customer. I guess more questions will be raise once their product roll out in April, so let's see how it pans out.

Isn't this initiative rather dangerous. I mean, walking around woth your cold wallet on you. That's like telling a whole bunch of people you meet wherever you go that hey look, I have cash on me and I've got it all on my hand. Anyways even if someone can't use it after stealing, it is still dangerous walking around telling people you have money.

I like the concept but I can't find anything regarding the device security. It kind of reminds me of the BitFi hardware wallet, which was just cheap Chinese hardware and very easy to hack.

BITHD watch is a wearable cold wallet for cryptocurrencies come from the same team who developed Bither wallet and Bitpie Wallet.

BITHD is 100% Open Source wallet including all manufacturing files. The first edition of BITHD watch was released on Dec. 30th 2017. In 2018 we have shipped more than 5 thousand BITHD watch to global users. Now we are about to ship the new generation of BITHD watch!
