Topic: Keystone 3 HW coming soon! - page 7. (Read 1782 times)

Keystone 3 HW with OKX partnership after some days of OKX new KYC restrictions. I hope it will be something useful.

The reason for this is that they want it to be an Airgapped HW, where all you need is an app on your phone and scan the HW QR to broadcast the transaction, there are no connections with your computer, all you need is to charge it.
in Ledger you need to connect it to your PC.

The large size comes from the battery and some parts such as the camera and SD card port, so it looks like smart phone.

There is a little bit more information in this blog post they released yesterday:

Most of it, though, is about them telling the world why they are the best.

There is this close up of the upcoming Keystone 3, which really resembles a smartphone.


They have also released a timeline showing when more information about the upcoming product is supposed to become available. Most of it will be revealed by the end of the month.

I did a quick duck-duck-a-go'in on the Keystone 3 as that pic you posted makes it look very much like a smartphone, and though I didn't find a better image I was zoning out and wondering if form factors of HW wallets follow any trends like cellphones did.  Many of you brilliantly brainiac youngsters might not have seen the evolution first-hand, but cellphones started out big and got progressively smaller (ending with some variation of the Razr I think) until smartphones just took over the world everywhere, all at once.  Those began small and then started getting much bigger as time went on.

And all of that blabbering is to say that I'm wondering if new HW wallets are being designed to look like modern day smartphones and breaking away from the "tiny device" form factor (Ledger, Blockstream Jade, Keepkey).  I know not all of them are, because there are a lot that mimic credit cards but it's got my mind....jigglin' like jelly.

Probably so far off topic that my above thoughts will get this post deleted, but I just want to say that I like the smaller HW wallets for the simple fact that they're easier to conceal if need be.  If you've got one the size of a standard smartphone, it's not exactly inconspicuous--plus I'd think that they'd be more prone to damage from dropping or some other form of damage to the screen.

Also:  You said you don't endorse the Keystone 3, dkbit98, and this time around I don't even need to heed your disclaimer.  After Ledger's little lie, I consider all hardware wallets to be collectibles only.  Fool me once, shame on me (in this case, because I was warned).  Fool me twice....ain't gonna happen.

I heard about this news few months ago but I had to wait for official announcement, now it's here, new Keystone 3 hardware wallet is coming soon!

Anyone can join the waitlist with promotional discount price by posting on Keystone twitter page, and you can find that link Join Waitlist on their website.

What we know Keystone 3 so far?

Not much, but based on twitter posts and other information from Keystone team we know that new device will be redesigned and much thinner than in older models.

We don't know anything about the price and other changes compared to current Keystone wallets, but they are mentioning some new Security Schemes that will be revealed in few days.

I tried talking with Keystone team several times to find out more but communication on their end is very bad
