It takes a while for a hardware wallet to arrive, plus you have the issue where your private information can be stored on a database that gets hacked later like with Ledger.

Your best bet is to download Electrum. Find an old laptop you never use. Rip out the Bluetooth and Wifi module from it. Install Electrum on both your online and offline computer. Use the old laptop to sign your transaction. The online computer will only be a watching only address.

If you don't have BTC and only ETH, then you can do the exact same thing with MyEtherWallet. Just download it and run it offline and use the "Offline Helper" tool to create offline transctions. You can do this on ETH and any of the tokens. This way your crypto will never get stolen.

Ordered Trezor at the start of January and got it last week, there is some delay and post isnt working very well now. Just my experience.
I have been using BRD (Iphone) for moving btc, i feel its quite safe but risk is always there.


generally dhl, ups and fedex are faster than post..there are exceptions of course depending on countries and conditions.

quoting myself..

--snip--

Now..i know you are not getting a hardware wallet ..until you lost your coins LOL so don't be stingy, grab at least 2 for backup purposes. Trezor 1 is a lot cheaper now. Trezor model T have more compatability as a key, just read info on hardware wallets and get the one you need.

"stingy"...that's the word

we are in a bullrun, what if your shitcoin pump? where are you going to withdraw your coins? to your malware'd PC? what if it is a life changing amount?

mining profits are high, shitcoin profits are high

so don't be stingy folks, there is no reason to be...

...but yeah i get it when some guy says in a telegram chat last bullrun that the trezor end up worth more than the erc20 shitcoin he bought for 1000s of dollars LOL

How does everyone here store their crypto?  I just had about $800 worth of Eth stolen.  A year and a half ago had $100 (don't even want to calculate the current value) of btc stolen.  I am a system administrator, and even though I am pretty willy nilly with not being super secure with the keys on my computer, I like to think I know enough that my machine doesn't become compromised.  This latest loss was through Metamask, which is retrospect was pretty dumb to use with my daily browser

trezor...

TREZOR

buy the 3 pack. now!

BTW you can use metamask with trezor, the difference is you have to press trezor button to send coins-->which a hacker can't do  Wink

you can also use them for hardware 2fa on sites (exchanges, email etc.) if you don't have yubi keys yet, yubi keys have more sites supported but trezor might be enough for some.

https://cryptonews.com/news/ethereum-moves-ahead-with-plans-for-earlier-transition-to-pr-9607.htm

Ethereum (ETH)’s planned move to a proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus mechanism appears to be gaining further momentum, after developers proposed merging the existing mainnet with the Ethereum 2.0 beacon chain as early as October.


Are we looking at October as a possible time eth mining ends?  If so it might be a good time to start sellling older GPUs and not buying any new GPUs.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Gigabyte-AMD-Radeon-HD-7970-OC-3GB-GDDR5-DVI-I-HDMI-2x-Mini-Displayport-PCI-E-3/265020978240?

https://www.ebay.com/fdbk/feedback_profile/philipma1957

my profile goes back to 2003 and is very very very good.

1x 5500xt
6x s9 hash boards

during this bull run on ebay.  Always at lowest price on ebay

yeah I have to list a 7970  these are close to 200

and I guess a 1050ti these are over 220

Where you can get that kind of price?! In here these cards are listed 30-50€ and nobody wants to buy them.

You would be surprised but the 7970 "might" sell for close to $200. Basically eventually someone will pay that price. I am seeing R9 270X go for $100 which was the going rate back in 2015 after the LTC scrypt ASICs came out and market was flooded with these GPUs.

Why would someone pay $200 for a GPU worth $50? Well if you look on your local Craiglist or FB Marketplace there are almost no GPUs going for that price. Most are around $500 and there are many which are >$1000. So all of a sudden a decent GPU for $200 doesn't sound like a bad deal. There really is nothing out there.

90% of all the GPUs on Craiglist are basically flippers. Only 10% are actual used second hand GPUs, however maybe 5% of those are bargain GPUs under <$200. If someone really needs a GPU its the price they will pay.

1 year ago? Yes the 7970 was useless and worth maybe 30 Euros.

Four years ago my son bought a used 980 ti hybrid for $290, he sold it yesterday for $379 plus shipping, it was listed for about an hour. 

I guess I need to sell my 4gb cards.

I may sit on it once I get it or flip it on eBay.

When you get it check to see if it's mem bus is 256 instead of 192 like the others.  I didn't notice this until today....  Should make it mine better.

https://rog.asus.com/graphics-cards/graphics-cards/rog-strix/rog-strix-rx6700xt-o12g-gaming-model/spec

I am proudly still batting a 1000% on you were not selected emails from Newegg.

Wow I hope someone posts what they can do with the 256 version soon.  Explains why they are so much more.  I'm still 0% on the shuffle...

i just hit my first shuffle yesterday.

got this:
https://www.asus.com/Motherboards-Components/Graphics-Cards/TUF-Gaming/TUF-RX6700XT-O12G-GAMING/techspec/

256 bit bus


i was also waiting at the local microcenter 4 hours before they opened (90 people in front of me and about 100 people behind me by the time they opened up... they ran out of cards 7 people behind me.)

and picked up this:
https://www.powercolor.com/product?id=1612497663#spe

it has a 192 bit bus... was able to get 48mhash from it.

That's interesting.  I didn't know there were different memory buses for different versions of the 6700 XT.

that's just according to their spec.  gpu-z is stating 192 bit bus for the powercolor red devil 6700xt.   i'll post for the asus tuf 6700xt once i receive it.

Now the money is free, and so the people will be
pretty sure thats a typo...6700xt should be 192bit or 384gb/s or something like that.  would be nice to see me wrong though.  Hey a 7970 is still pretty good for gaming considering the alternatives right now Smiley
I heard the carmakers cancelled chip orders when the covid slump hit, but now they want to un-cancel them and they are blaming "chip shortage".  While technically true, I had a quick look at TMSC production numbers and they arent down.
