very nice.
now a dedicated armory machine would be very nice to manufacture.
I imagine a tiny offline tablet like device that has toptop security and an armory like wallet system onboard and signs things with your QR code idea.
Topic: Armory Companion: Keep your offline wallet isolated (Read 897 times)
Very cool idea. It will increase security noticeably. I'll be interested in giving it a spin.
Have you ever wanted to completely isolate your private keys from networks and removable media? Armory nearly accomplishes this, but still requires removable media to move the transaction content back and forth. I've created an Android app called Armory Companion that allows you to broadcast signed transactions on the bitcoin network after signing with your offline Armory instance (or any other bitcoin instance for that matter) using QR code scanning. There are some tiny python scripts that run on the offline computer to facilitate QR code scanning with the webcam and generation of the final signed transaction QR code.
