Title: [2015-02-27] The World's ‘Most Secure’ Operating System Adds a Bitcoin Wallet Post by: LiteCoinGuy on February 27, 2015, 03:48:26 PM The World's ‘Most Secure’ Operating System Adds a Bitcoin Wallet
Tails OS, which experts consider the world’s most secure operating system and that the NSA called a “threat,” has released a new version that includes a Bitcoin wallet option. http://cointelegraph.com/news/113562/the-worlds-most-secure-operating-system-adds-a-bitcoin-wallet Title: Re: [2015-02-27] The World's ‘Most Secure’ Operating System Adds a Bitcoin Wallet Post by: Q7 on February 27, 2015, 04:00:43 PM The World's ‘Most Secure’ Operating System Adds a Bitcoin Wallet Tails OS, which experts consider the world’s most secure operating system and that the NSA called a “threat,” has released a new version that includes a Bitcoin wallet option. http://cointelegraph.com/news/113562/the-worlds-most-secure-operating-system-adds-a-bitcoin-wallet Then that is a perfect combination. Though I've heard of Tails before, I never shown the interest to try it out or learn how it works. Since now it has bitcoin wallet and coincidentally I'm also a fan of electrum, that would surely be interesting. In a way or another that will definitely give a boost towards bitcoin security.

It is a live Linux OS which is bootable from DVD. The part got me worried is internet traffic is forced through Tor. I think using Electrum on Tails OS is ok, logging into Blockchain.info wallet would not be. Be warned.

I think it should be fine if just the transactions are going through tor, though like you said I wouldn't trust logging into sites like blockchain.info. |
