Would NXT work though?

Not without significant changes as it is not based on Bitcoin's code. Currently no plans for this.

this should be plug and play into other altcoins

Actually there's nothing needed from Trezor side for altcoin support. At least LTC is supported out of the box and other altcoins are matter of few lines. Ask your favourite altcoin devs to add Trezor support to their clients :-).

There's "Support" button on myTrezor screen.

Good to know where to send people with trouble. Thanks.

Having some issues with intermittent connectivity on both Windows and Linux. Tried another cable and it works fine now.

It seems that the tiny micro-USB cables the Trezor shipped with aren't that great.

I have to say, I'm quite impressed with the Trezor so far. It's extremely simple to use. Explaining how to use it to family and friends who are less technically-inclined than the average bitcoinaut actually seems within reach.

I thought at first I would dislike the myTrezor wallet, but its accessibility (able to use from any machine) and its simplicity is wonderful. Waiting for a while to store any significant amount of funds on the Trezor is a good idea, to ensure that bugs get eradicated. Keeping only spending cash on it for now, at least until Multibit HD is released with Trezor support.

No regrets as far as paying 3 BTC for one. It's worth every satoshi to have supported the launch of one of the most important devices in Bitcoin.

made my day, thx!  Kiss

Wow! Thank you very much novusordo. Posts like this are reassuring that we are really doing the right thing and are a great motivation for us!

Will Mytrezor web wallet add Litecoin?

Yes, in the future, although it's not a top priority at the moment.

tks

let me rephrase one of my question:

Is there a list of softwares / Websites that support Trezor?

https://github.com/trezor/documentation/wiki/Client-Support

Currently only myTREZOR supports Trezor, but Multibit HD, Armory, Electrum and Litecoin-qt plans some support soon. AFAIK also blockchain.info and greenaddress.it have some plans, but nothing has been done yet.

Trezor is completely new kind of device, so it will take some time until 3rd party software will adopt it. For example none of mentioned clients have support for BIP32, although that standard is there for more than two years. BIP32 support is however required for Trezor.

How do I add Litecoin?

Ask Litecoin devs for adding Trezor support into their client. They already have Trezor in their hands :-).

Also how do I reconstruct my key if I lose my device? Which software can be used to recover it?

There's python-trezor library (https://github.com/trezor/python-trezor) which can talk with Trezor and with some manual effort it is possible to use that library for sending coins out of the device. There're unit tests demonstrating how it works.

Theoretically any BIP32 compatible client will work for recovering funds, again with some manual effort (like converting recovery seed to BIP32 master manually).

However for comfortable (automatic) recovery of funds, other client need to support BIP39 (to load recovery seed into the client) and BIP44 (to see all transactions and balance). They'll come sooner or later.

I have had my device a week or two and started using it 2 days ago. MAJOR ISSUE the wallet turned up an error and requests a reload which on press of the button does nothing. I have registered on here so that I may request help from any tech minded guys out there because I have lost BTC! At first I noticed the balances were off and it then came up with a warning to reload. I did and it didnt fix anything. I went to my other account on there and sent 1.23BTC and signed with device etc however the transaction doesnt exist and my funds are gone. Now my first account is now missing a large amount of transaction logs and one
I sent of 10BTC now shows7BTC fortunately that transaction went through fine and I have received the 10 sent but strangely it shows I have sent 7. I have screenshotted what I can and I have done what I can like trying a diff browser, reinstalling plug in and a diff comp no fix. Funds still lost  and I cant wipe device as it has my proof of all transactions and proof of my BTC losses due to the device. If you need the screen shots I have lots and any others if needed but for now the most important one in question which has caused me to loose BTC is this one

Any help would be greatly appreciated

The Bitcoins are definitely NOT lost, they are certainly accessible with keys of the device.

We seem to have an issue in reporting some transactions, on which we work and will remedy asap.

This is a complex stack of hard and software where glitches of display can arise, but again, not ultimate losses since the keys are deterministic from the seed and they remain in control of all funds even if the display would be temporarily incorrect.


That is fantastic news to hear I patiently await a solution from support th for getting back to me

So an update on my situation. I had already tried electrum with no joy worst is after finally getting annoyed I wiped device then recovered it with the seed and useless wallet in the exact same state. Useless and lost funds

Please wait until the backend is fixed and picks up your transaction ... There's nothing to worry about, coins are yours, they are just not showing in the user interface.

Hi all,

the device is great but I'm not going to use it unless I can do a few test and so far I have no idea how to get the key back.

thanks dev

You should try to enter your seed in electrum for exemple, that is BIP32 compliant

Unfortunately BIP32 compatiblity is not enough for user-friendly recovery of the funds. Other wallet would need to support BIP44 and BIP39 to be able to see all myTrezor transactions/funds.

It looks like Multibit HD (new version supporting determinstic wallet) might support this, but it is still unreleased.

Was setting it up on myTrezor.com. After entering in the initial pin, I get "Error! string overflow" at the top of the page.

Thanks for report, myTrezor should really limit length of pin to 9 characters as it is limit of Trezor itself. It will be fixed in upcoming mytrezor release.

There's actually no need for longer PIN than 9 characters, because repeating numbers in PIN does not improve the security at all.
