Title: Full Nodes and Wallets Trezor, Ledger Nano or mSigna pros and cons how to set up
Post by: Inside_and_UP on November 08, 2017, 12:12:25 AM
Do I use Green Address to set up a full node with a Trezor or Ledger Nano S?

What is advantages of hardware HD wallet vs mSigna by Ciphrex

I tried using BitcoinArmory but its does not seem to be up to date.
And I need help in setting this up.

Also Can I set up a hardware wallet like Trezor or Nano S and set it up with multi signatues.

Can Bitcoins be accessed by using the Trezor/Nano and (GreenAddress) or does it have to be accessd through the node.

Where can I get instructions on setting this up?

Thank you

I think you need to take time to learn how bitcoin works. Either by reading or experimenting with small amounts.
A full node - a piece of software used as a wallet and to broadcast "blocks" to the other users.
A hardware wallet stores your private keys, these should never touch your computer or the Internet unless you ask them to (and it's worth writing down the seed).

For a first user I'd recommend you not to go straight for a hardware wallet and instead go for either bitcoin core (brom bitcoin.org) or electrum (from electrum.org) to get started unless you either don't trust your computer or want to store high values of the coins in there.

I really appreciate your answer. Unfortunately you did not answer my question.

I know how to use hardware wallets.  really quite simple. I have now created multiple new Hardware wallets, Trezor and Ledger Nano S. and recovered them each with others Trezors or Ledgers and recovered Ledgers with Trezors.

If you didn't know the answer to the question I asked. Giving the answer you gave was really quite meaning less.

If you did know the answer to the question then giving the answer you gave was obnoxious.


Thanks really for nothing.
