Topic: EliptiBox - Ultra secured Hardware Wallet packed with unique features. (Read 5500 times)

Can you please explain what makes this better than a trezor?

So far, this looks like a copy of it that downloads the blockchain. Will we have access to our private keys or no?

lol that website looks ugly. Its like every second scam site on the web. If you want a nice design with a nice webdesign to your wallet PM me.

Nice news  Let see how the ultra security wallet will work in real life 

Looks awesome! how to make an order?
you have a stock? or it's made by order? looks like you need to add a pricing/order/pre-order page on your site.

Well, I've just subscribed to your email service and would love to get my hands on one of these. It definitely looks promising. Are there any updates available?

Hello Really appreciate the fast reply, I'll be watching for updates and pre order dates.


Thanks again and keep up that great work you guys are doing.


Cheers.

Hi,

The price will be determined by the hardware, thus dependent on the volume. Production in large quantities can dramatically reduce the price. We estimate that unit cost can be anywhere between 20$ to 250$.

So we are definitely interested in bulk orders.

The current first batch is for prototyping and getting feedback from the community.
We are able to bootstrap the prototypes without relatively complicated Kickstarter campaign.

Pretty badass tech i most say, I also wonder what would be the price range for this and will you be doing bulk orders has well, I'm defendly interested have you guys thought about getting a kickstarted going so maybe you could release a few prototypes before the official launch.

Awesome! Nice update. Cant wait to see the final product. Do you have price in mind?

Hi All,

We are happy to share that the first batch of the hardware is working and blinking LED  .
Also USB and BT are working well. The most critical milestone has passed OK.
 
The boards have been assembled in June and we are in the middle of HW tests and drivers completion.

Now we are focused on completing the software SDK for the board to enable open-source application development.
 
You are welcome to watch the actual board assembly process in the following video:

interested! Also for other applications that require secure storage.

We are glad that our solution is discussed in depth by community experts.
This is the intention from the beginning - to open technical details of our design on our site and in the near future all SW source code, to the community review (especially harsh ones). We want to create the best solution for bitcoin storage and to answer any shortcomings before the product is ready for delivery.

As for the issues raised by Greg Maxwell:

- Until recently we were very focused on the system hardware and software design with the emphasis on modular easy to use architecture. We are using Trezor crypto libraries for now in the internal system tests, as it is embedded-friendly. Before releasing the product we were planning to review the crypto quality with the help of the community and achieve the best implementation. Greg's insight sharpens the issues with this library and great need for improvement. We intend to use EliptiBox by ourselves and do not want to "leak" money.

- We spent a lot of time to plan highly energy-efficient power network. FPGA, BT modem and other components can be turned completely off to conserve battery. The FPGA is turned on only when needed to communicate transaction data for signing, so that the average power over time is negligible. Our power design allows the product to spend 2 years on standby or to sign 1000 transaction without charging.

- PCB ground:
  Board design complies to the strict EM field leakage prevention, so that our board has 6 layers with complete ground layer to close the loop together with the metal RF cages.

- Firewall:
  We've analysed many different approaches to secure decoupling between crypto HW and external world (including audio) and chose the FPGA as the most versatile and safe solution to prevent remote attacks on the HW. To ensure this, only RED crypto controller can load bitstream to FPGA. Remote attacker can not access the RED controller code through the firewall and can not change the bitstream.

Moreover, we'll offer the HW as a development platform with complete description, so that anyone can play with it and audit it's features.

Crypto algorithm has a crucial part in overall security. This is the reason we are going open source for feedback and swift adoption of all changes.

We are always glad to read any comments and advice and implement the resulting improvements to be shared with the community.

Greg Maxwell doesn't seem to be very impressed:

Great job!  Can wait to see the first proto!

ultra neat!!! 

We have great news!

The first batch of circuit boards is here:

Range is too wide... I know what you mean.. 

Anyway, It's so interesting to me. looks cool. BT and Android connectivity with secure...
If around 100, many bitcoin fans might consider to buy one.
I wish all the features work perfectly as like described. good luck!
I've bookmarked your site..

The volume of our next batch will be determined by the interest of the community and will have a large impact on the final price.

Hope this gonna work! 

Biometric verification could be awesome!

Do you have a price in mind?

Hello All,

We've started to sign transactions on the Testnet using our HW wallet prototype.
We apologize for the lack of updates. Until this month we have been very busy with the board, which is now in the final production stages and should be ready soon for components placement.

Now we are focused on the software side - both for the embedded and the mobile app.
We'll publish demos of the new SW and wallet features as they become available.

You can read more and see the transaction sign demo on our site:
