I have to say, Im thoroughly impressed w/ the trezor. Its become the only device / service that I fully trust w/ my bitcoin other than myself.
Ive not yet found anything worthy of that roll, till the trezor.
The idea of making as many hidden wallets I want w/ passwords thrills the hell outta me. Knowing my BTC are secure even in the event of theft / loss and not known to even exist is quite a feat. It could even function in that regard as both hot & cold storage wallets!
Also, knowing the entire thing is recoverable w/ a simple seed. Which, I would gather I could put anywhere, cuz once again, even if someone found it ... if they tried to use it, they would not see any funds unless they knew the exact passwords I used for my wallets.
It works flawlessly w/ my phone & mycelium as well... which is also awesome. Ive started using electrum as my bitcoin-core wallet replacement(took some getting used to but its working out well). Its nice to see a decent amount of addresses for each account in electrum so I know which ones are 'in queue'.
I still run bitcoin-core for full node support & my addresses are in there as watch only mode.
Overall very fucking impressive product! I think anyone serious about BTC should have one.
Its much better than the HW.1 & ledger products which Ive tried HW.1(same as ledger pretty much cept for software) ... they suck in comparison.
Thanks for your post GenTarkin - The multiple pass-phrase protected accounts are a great feature.
Just interested if you have ever tried (tested) recovering a Trezor wallet (pass-phrase protected account) via the seed that your Trezor gave you - to an ELECTRUM wallet?
Does Electrum support recovery of wallets (accounts) with Trezor
pass-phrases? I know some wallets do not. I assume each account will have its own seed?
Can you recover multiple hidden wallets each with their own passphrase into Electrum?
If you recover them to Electrum - does Electrum then use the Trezor pass-phrases as the password for each respective wallet?
What does Electrum do with the PIN from Trezor on wallets recovered into Electrum? Forget it - or maybe this becomes the Electrum password?
and alternatively
have you tested recovery of multiple pass-phrase protected wallets into Trezor via the seed?
Do you have to RESET the Trezor device to recover an account (thus losing the first or other accounts)? Or do you just unplug it between recovering each individual account? Then add the new account seeds until you have recovered them all?
Where does the pass-phrase and PIN work into all of this? Will the recovered accounts be set up with the original pass-phrases and PINs?
Sorry - lot of questions but need to figure out all the pros/cons and potential issues.
can anybody answer some/all these questions from experience - i.e. from actually doing it?
Thanks - usukan
