Well done, it looks like a pretty neat hardware wallet, but if I am not wrong this is the most expensive of all other hardware wallets ? Maybe just a little bit overpriced ? Anyway congrats and keep going, I maybe buy it when I have like 100 or more BTC  KeepKey is $99. It previously cost more than double this price but as they gathered more sales they were able to reduce the price. If anyone has any specific experiences using KeepKey feel free to share your experience. KeepKey is simple to use with the Chrome extension and less so with Electrum. Directions for using KeepKey with Electrum are provided. If you browse the support desk article you might wonder why go to the trouble of installing the python client just to use Electrum? Well the reason is password protection of the seed is disabled in the Chrome extension. Like Trezor the private keys in KeepKey could potentially be extracted unless protected with a passphrase. Here is a quote from the article referenced: There is no complete protection against all kind of attacks. If your TREZOR gets stolen and it has no passphrase protection (or if the passphrase is weak), you should transfer the coins to a different wallet. There are other attack vectors like fault injection that could still be used and may get around the PIN protection. Basically, they use the fact that the microprocessor does unexpected things if power supply or the clock signal is broken. These are much more difficult to perform, but they are probably less expensive than using an electron microscope to read the seed from the chip. Also, there may be a bug in the microprocessor that allows for circumventing the read-out protection. If you are going to use a Trezor or KeepKey it makes sense to use a passphrase to encrypt your seed. KeepKey just makes it inconvenient to do so at present. A PIN alone is not sufficient protection. A hardware wallet using a secure element (Ledger) does not need passphrase protection. You just have to make sure you initialize your Ledger on a secure computer, and Ledger sells a Starter that allows you to initialize your Ledger device (Nano and HW.1) even on a compromised computer. |

I only setup ONE wallet with the Trezor after initializing it. Why are there two Master Public Keys?
In Electrum, it says I have "Account 1" and "Main Account."
I want to perform offline signing with the Trezor on an airgapped computer, with a watch-only Electrum for broadcasting, and would like to know which master public key to import for the watch-only side and why.
Thanks in advance.
Interesting idea but you are trying to use Trezor with Electrum in a way contrary to instructions in the user manual. A developer would have to chime in here. |

I used Armory for years, liked it but tired of using two computers for cold storage and changed to Trezor and have not looked back. Armory has been promising Trezor support but it never comes. I doubt it is a priority now. I am aware of the privacy advantages of running your own full node and Trezor owners will have that option soon according to this post on reddit. Mytrezor release with Bitpay Bitcore support is coming soon. If you do not want to run a Bitcore node on your own Linux box you will have the option in myTrezor.com to connect to other public Bitcore servers. Woohoo! that's interesting. any experience with Bitcore? is it just another implementation of Bitcoin Core as a full node? sorry but isnt be a bit "off topic" ? whe are in Trezor Bitcoin hardware wallet thread ( no offense here , just to put a reminder..  Thanx. Pardon? The ability to use Trezor and myTrezor.com with a backend other than Bits of Proof is on topic and a welcome advance. Just not here yet, slush mentioned 25 days ago would be implemented into myTrezor.com soon. |

I would be very careful buying from Genesis Mining right now with halving 3 months away. Read the fine print in the contract (if you can find it) or you may find your contract worthless after the halving when maintenance costs could be greater than mining rewards. I think it would be a good idea to wait until after the halving to buy hosted mining from anyone Hashnest and BW included.

See https://bitcore.io/ both 64 bit Mac OS X and GNU/Linux are currently supported. I assume you will have to run the daemon and the wallet service then point myTrezor.com to the wallet service as the backend instead of Bits of Proof. Uncharted waters here for me sounds like fun. |

I think trusting simple moving average is not right here because demand of ethereum is not cyclic in nature. It is more like trend data and using simple moving average will only give an underestimated forecast. In my opinion this forecast is not correct.
Been trading long? Charts do not lie and TA beats a crystal ball. The trend is down now. May reverse in future but Ether is not a buy at present. Pros would already have shorted Ether. |

The Ethereum price has gone down quite a lot over the last two weeks. If it stop around 0.02 and stablise, then it should good.
Remember Paycoin:) If Ether breaks down through .02 it would not be good. There is a down trend established and I do not like to bottom fish. I would only buy Ether again if it proves it has legs by breaking through the all time high.  |

While an interesting option a webmaster can always host affiliate banners him or her self and Adblockers can do nothing about it. Adsense and other networks can be blocked but self hosted banners cannot.
Doubtful. Task-specific AI has reached the point where I'd guess you could block ad banners of any source with >95% accuracy rate. If they are a standard size, which the nature of ad networks and mass distribution more or less requires, then it would easily approach 100% Maybe in the future but not now. Added ADZCoin Savers extension to Chrome and neither it nor Brave browser is blocking my self hosted banners. Will worry about it when the time comes. |

as title reads,
i only have $6 in btc right now i need help to set up up i cant seem to understand it,
Thanks in advance
HI, This article will get you started. All you need is latest Mist and an Etherbase account. Since Shapeshift and some exchanges do not work well with contract wallets just use your account to send or receive Ether. You do not need to set up a wallet at first. |

1) trolls or cryptokids looking for an argument
2) believers posting bad news hoping to buy more at better price
3) low IQ

Thanks for this r0ach. Finally a well reasoned thread on the halving.

No real trader cares about awards only price action. Never fall in love with an investment, you need to be ready to sell if your alarm bells are ringing. Right now Ether is treading water. I would not invest a farthing unless .037 is taken out on Kraken and a new uptrend is established. There may yet be more money to be made, but not right now.
The Ethereum is consolidating at the moment. If after two months, and the price breaks 0.04, I will buy some. Lol kinda funny, why wait to buy at 0.04 buy now at 0.25  Because Ether is in a downtrend. Been trading a long time? Wait until a new uptrend is established and price breaks through previous all time high. Ether is acting like a pump and dump right now. |

How can I do this without importing my current private key into to a "live" computer connected to
the internet? That is to say, even if I build a new Linux computer, install core, import the key,
create a transaction (internet disconnected)... connect to the internet to allow it to broadcast - if
my opsec is broken somewhere - some rogue software could still create an alternative transaction
and broadcast that instead.
Why are you not using a hardware wallet like a $20 Ledger HW.1? Your private keys never leave the secure element of the Ledger. Yes, you can use cold storage with Electrum using two computers but a hardware wallet is more convenient. |

Metal Trezors are probably worth $1000 or more on the secondary market, since the last 20 just sold from Trezor directly for $999. If you carry one with you do you want to take a chance on scratching the aluminum? Some protection like the Remote Tote seems reasonable.
That's correct, I recently purchased one of those 20 Although, I'm keeping mine in it's packaging to preserve the value. You sound like one of those toy collectors who will not open the box as I am told some collectors demand new in box:) Knife collectors on the other hand, preserve the box and packaging in case a trade is made but enjoy their knives. My feeling is why not enjoy the Trezor? It is truly an objet d'art. |

Hey, good catch. I did not realize they were UDP and incompatible with Tor. He did mention i2p as a possible future option. |

I like the interface but it will take time, see what it looks like in 6 months, how many sellers are opening shop. This is not a threat or any competition to darknet markets at all is my impression.
