Both are good. I like Ledger Nano S. The price gone up at the moment in my country,
but I think they are cheap. Security is very important and underestimated.

Can i make you one question? Do you any idea of which altcoins are supporting the seed of a Ledger Wallet?

Once, i tried to export it to Coinomi, but i didn't wanted to do it because i thought that i could be exposing my security in there, and it is little bit risky after all.

Anyway, if you have some time, kindly check this so maybe you can clear my doubts a little, haha.


all of them. that's the point. they wouldn't add a coin unless you can restore from the same seed. that could easily mean you'd lose that coin.

the only tricky one i experienced is ethereum which doesn't quite work in the same way as other ones. i can't remember the details now but you have to take an extra step to restore them that you shouldn't have to with others.

of course. take the seed you generated on your trezor or ledger and you can enter it in the replacement to get your coins back. with the seed you're not restricted to just those devices, you can restore your coins in any wallet with a similar seed system which is most of the main ones.

Thank you for detailed explanation! If the wallet is broken down after being throwing or it fell down. May I buy one more and renew all the tokens on the new one?

your seed is everything so keep it very safe.

the same seed will also restore any altcoins you have on there too.

To be honest, I myself do not know. thought for a long time and thought. Finally decided to buy both Trezor & Ledger. Suddenly, if with one of them happening something, the other part will be preserved. I always try to diversify the risks. Especially if it's about finance.

Can you explain, please, what do you mean?
As I understand both of them are secured because of secretive list of words and the number-code that you choose my your own

he's talking about the nature of the hardware and software, not how they work. both of them operate securely for customers but this question is all about the back end.

the ledger's chip and firmware is closed source. trezor's is not. both of them have open source apps.

The only thing that sets me back on a Ledger is that it's code it's closed source (vs. Trezor that is open-source). Who knows if they have some kind of backdoor just waiting to be activated ...

I think the Ledger Nano S is great and user friendly.
Just a friendly reminder, if you are buying the Ledger Nano S or Trezor. Please make sure you buy it from the manufacturer. Try not to buy it second hand (bad bad idea) or from resellers, as there has been cases of hacks or seed keys that were stolen.
Be safe out there, and always adhere to the Number # 1 rule in crypto: your coins, your keys.

I use Ledger. My friend recommended me to buy this wallet. I did not compare Ledger to Trezor, but I can definitely say that it's very convenient to use Ledger.

My choice would Trezor. It looks much simpler and better quality, and it also has a look-free structure. The ledger is more complicated.

I also chose trezor but at the beginning I chose ledger nano but  when I tried to buy I have to wait delivering until 15 March then I bought trezor and it was delivered in the week. So I use trezor and I like it.

Ledger is far better then trezor. I hope its going to support waves too. ERC20 tokens are supported and i can trade on etherdelta with my ledger.
This is awesome.


I agree with you! I've been using Ledger for a long time and for me this is the most reliable and convenient wallet. I store in it my coins, which I bought for long-term storage.

I prefer Trezor right now but in a short while here I may diversify and look to get other hardware wallets and the Ledger is a close second for me. The only reason I prefer Trezor actually is because they could have shipped it to me quicker, otherwise I would have chosen Ledger because it is cheaper.

I am using Trezor already for 6 months - very happy with it. Always good, always safe, nothing bad that I can say about it. I believe Ledger good as well, but I never used that  Cheesy
Can we write its adress in Google for while taking part in bounty campaign? Or you have to write ETH wallet and then send tokens to Trezor and pay commission?

I will buy Nano Ledger S at the end of March. I have many ERC20 tokens and any hard wallet doesn`t support them. But Ledger can connect to web-browser to my MEW wallet. It will get a safety to my tokens!
After buying it, write your opinion, please. We are waiting for commentaries from owners. Hope it will be useful for you to use and for use to know before making a final decision.

In fact, you can buy both purses. Since scammers and hackers develop every day. Probably find what kind of vulnerability it is. Or I do not know - an error. Therefore, it is better to share even between such purses. But this is my opinion. And it also depends on the finances and the amount you want to keep.
