Thanks everyone for all your questions
Let me bring some details and reply to you all :
the usage of a 3rd party escrow is mandatory or optional?
Hey tweetious !
It is optional.
For now, your Coldkeys must be shipped loaded.
However, for enhanced fund safety, they can ship unloaded
under condition that the funding has been secured by a 3rd party escrow (agreed upon us, must be Bitcointalk escrow tho).
As a startup, we are undertaking our financial regulator agreement, so we are able to provide more crypto-assets services to the world.
Any word on US distributors? I’d love to see Mantis Warehouses handle stateside for ultra-fast shipping!
Hi Moonie !
Thanks for your question.
For now, it is too early to confirm or state anything about this.
However, thanks a lot for the idea ! We like it a lot and would love to see this happen.
Stay tuned for our future developments !
looking gorgeous. I would also reserve a few, lower numbers the better.
I have 2 questions:
1, how can ppl be sure the private keys can not be leaked? do you hold a copy of them? or how is it generated / handled?
2, planned distribution in Asia? AU and or NZ?
Thanks much!
Hey pk1978 !
Thanks a lot for your nice words and your questions.
Unfortunately we cannot reserve some for you, but I will let you know when our wallets are available for sale, so you can grab a few low serial numbers.
1)
The private keys cannot be leaked, because we do not hold a copy of them. They are generated on the fly and exist only on the Coldkey wallet itself.
In our Genesis Edition, we did not record some of the public addresses of some cards for increased privacy. (

The generation takes place on a secure setup. We take the outmost care when it comes to the integrity of the private keys.
We use open source
In the future, we may release series that involve our company to hold onto a copy of private keys (Masternode cold storage ...
) but we are not legally allowed to do so, yet.
Only an agreement from the French financial regulator can enable us to offer such services.
We take all these matters very seriously.
2)
Coldkeys are available worldwide, with the exception of China.
We are always on the lookout for distributors.
Please get in touch with me with a DM or Telegram (@yogg1). You can also send us an email at the address contact[at]coldkey.eu
I'll be happy to let you know when we are open for orders.
It is based on how you trust a maker.
If you think he might have a key copy, dont buy. If you believe he dont.- buy it.
I think we are safe and the only copy of a key is under the holo.
Thank you very much for your vouch and for your trust, StackItUp
Our primary goal is to make crypto-assets more easily accessible for everybody.

Yogg, put me down for two.
Guys - You can trust Yogg. He's not going to scam, people know his real name and location. He's done keys securely for at least one Polymerbit release so far as well.
Owlcatz, thanks so much for your awesome feedback.
Yep, I will never understand those who scam people. It is straightforward gained by abuse, which is inconceivable.
We're here for the long run, and take every measure and step forward for the best of Coldkey.
Time goes by so fast, I am impatient to see where Coldkey will be in one year.
Look awesome. Can't wait to pick some up.
