You will probably like the Trezor, I certainly do.  (I also like the Ledger Nano that I have)

I do NOT have the latest Trezor firmware update, I *think* I read somewhere that someone ran into a problem...  Besides, I am lazy and never am in a hurry to update software, etc.

*   *   *

At some point I hope to see a thread on people's satisfaction with their hardware wallets.  I very much like both the Trezor and Ledger Nano, both seem to be about equally good products and about equally easy to use.

I think all these new Hardware Wallets are very good and very useful... But I do still feel the need to have a custom Cold only hardware wallet. Are there any companies or sellers specializing in such? Wallets based on Hardware like the Raspberry Pi? Is there even interest or a market for such?

I prefer Zakir over Muhammed when mentioning me!
thx Muhammed Zakir. fixed some things.  Smiley

Anytime. IMHO you should increase the font size from 4pt to 6pt. Now it is hardly noticed. Smiley

thx for the feedback.

You are welcome!

the part with the firmware is a big hassle and i deleted it.

Which wallet review did you delete? I still can see eWallet.

before you buy some of these devices, make a proper background check.

I think it is better to add this as a note to OP. Something like, "Before you buy a device, make a proper background check. You should make your own due diligence".

Are you sure about listing BWallet? BWallet Review by a Trezor Developer - slush


Not sure what the license issue might be.  Its GPLv3.

They changed the TREZOR firmware license from “completely open-source” (LGPLv3) to “shared-source” (Ms-RSL)(copy-paste from Trezor website - don't want to rephrase it). I saw it first on reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2ygong/ewallet_trezor_compatible_hardware_wallet_just/#cp9ehco

You should probably mention what kind of a reputation black arrow has...
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/guide-dogies-comprehensive-manufacturer-trustworthiness-guide-1st-feb-2016-456691

And it's not open source. It claims it is, but I don't see a link to the source anywhere.

I also suggest to remove it or add a note. Not only because of the reputation of BlackArrow but:

1) Exact replica of Trezor. Only changed the way it looked.
2) There might be a license issue. http://satoshilabs.com/news/2015-01-30-trezor-software-license/

These are all good points and our attempt to answer them resulted in a long explanation.
So we've opened FAQ page on our site to share these and other questions with all.

You are welcome to follow the link http://www.eliptibox.com/#!faq/c18gq .

On the question of which FPGA we are planning to use, we chose the FPGA with the lowest price that is still large enough to contain our firewall with the provision for future updates. The part number will be published with the hardware documentation and will be available to our subscribers.
