Title: Equivalent of "Tails" for macOS to boot on clean system Post by: zirt on December 19, 2017, 12:43:35 AM Hi
Like Tails the live OS, For macbook, I am looking for booting on a sure non infected OS, such as an USB key, so I can manipulate my wallets, private keys, stored on an encrypted usb key, with confidence (so there is no virus, spyware, ...). I also look same for PC but I guess Tails is good enough? Thank you Title: Re: Equivalent of "Tails" for macOS to boot on clean system Post by: Winner on December 19, 2017, 01:39:10 AM Hi Why do you need another wallet? What's wrong with Tails? that can work with a Mac computer. The reason why I ask is because Tails is a well known wallet with a high credibility rating among the people that already installed it.Like Tails the live OS, For macbook, I am looking for booting on a sure non infected OS, such as an USB key, so I can manipulate my wallets, private keys, stored on an encrypted usb key, with confidence (so there is no virus, spyware, ...).

as long as you know how to boot into each of them, you are fine. it doesn't matter what computer you are using and what its current OS is! Tails is a well known wallet Tails is NOT a wallet. it is a Linux distribution with focus on privacy.

Thanks for your answers. Maybe there is a miss communication. In fact I since then, installed Tails on an USB key. This way even if my computer is infected, no worries for my coins! Thanks much all for your help. Let's keep coins storage secure!
