It combine a credit-card sized vault that contains all required information to send/receive bitcoins (vital information such as the private key is obviously encrypted) and a smartphone app that allows to actually move your fund in and out of the card. And yes, the app is available on iOS. You will be able to find more info on our website www.versocards.com (http://www.versocards.com) and in the AMA we did on reddit http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1y24db/hello_its_verso_cards_ama/ (http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1y24db/hello_its_verso_cards_ama/). Don't hesitate to ask further questions! Title: Re: You can now try the Verso Wallet App before buying the Verso Card! Post by: RGBKey on February 27, 2014, 03:33:42 PM So if the card contains just a simple public/private keypair, why are you selling it for so much? Could i use the app to spend bitcoin from my own cold storage? Not that I would, because I don't know if it's sending my private keys back to you.

Feel free to browse the code of our website / app libraries to see by yourself what is sent to us. We never have access to your private key besides its encrypted version at the time we print your card. Yes, you could use your own card with the app. You will miss some features such as the card name, which is stored on our servers (nothing you can't live with). If we were to provide the card only, you could argue that 16.99 USD is expensive but we strongly believe that the combo card + app is worth at least the price of two beers (yes, beer is not cheap in Switzerland) :) Title: Re: You can now try the Verso Wallet App before buying the Verso Card!

You should put these things in the OP You are absolutely right to be suspicious about anything new that someone proposes when it comes to Bitcoin. Past (and very recent, thank you MtGox) experiences show us that it is the correct behavior to adopt! Title: Re: You can now try the Verso Wallet App before buying the Verso Card!
