Title: Use TPM to store Private Keys and sign transactions

Use TPM to store Private Keys and sign transactions

is this possible?

i have found instructions for using the TPM for securing SSH connections. i plan to get a new pc so i am curious if there is any benefit for buying an additional tpm module (ofc it must be owned by me and its a must that it doesnt contain any other keys)

using tpm to secure ssh:

i imagine that the security of my privkey would be comparable to trezor (except that i dont have a trusted way to review the recipients address and amount) is this true? or did i miss something...
