***BUYERS BEWARE!!!***Glad we got another, but, boy, do I have a story to share tomorrow...
Is it Good?
Will you tell us on Friday?
It may be Good Friday, but my story is not--more annoying than anything, actually. I'll provide details here soon, but in the meantime...
Is anyone familiar with that cryptoHWwallet
seller on Amazon, eBay, etc.?
Sorry for the long lead-up, but I was already up too late last night and too busy today with this pesky day-job
to run this by everyone...
So, you all may have noticed I've been talking about a hardware wallet I ordered. Well, it was supposed to be a "new" Ledger HW.1, and although it came in a plastic-sealed box,
it was half punched out of it's plastic card-shaped holder, AND
it had obvious scratch marks across the plastic and gold-plated contact area. At
best it was careless workmanship; at worst it was as clear as day tampering, and who knows what else?!
Anyway, I just wanted to try saving others some grief if they too were looking for a cheap but brand name solution to work as a hardware wallet. Thanks to Kano 's advice, I'm leaning more toward a standalone Linux machine dedicated to Bitcoin Core... Wish me luck!
