I used Armory in the first place for cold storage. Switched to Trezor and no longer use it. Now that hardware wallets are common and inexpensive Armory is looking long in the tooth. If it would fully support Trezor (multiple hidden wallets with passphrases) it would have an edge over myTrezor and Multibit HD as a more private solution. I would very much like to use a fully validating node with Trezor. Would I pay for it? Nope.

Your installation must be corrupted. The true portable 2.5.1 works fine for me and does not save files to %AppData%

KeepKey does not have a track record yet ... can not yet be used with your phone ... and costs $139 more than a Trezor. Trezor has been out over a year now and works great. Sure Trezor is small and plastic, but you can carry it in your pocket on your key ring. You can buy a Ledger and Starter USB for $40 but Trezor is well worth the extra $60 for the screen, I use both of them.

Those zipped files no longer have a Windows installer. You could try this link instead: https://github.com/unsystemizer/bitcoin-core-addrindex/blob/master/README.md or just wait for Armory to release their update.

Not really. If you use Trezor the 24 word seed generates all your addresses and private keys. You can consider the seed your wallet, not the plastic device. If you lose your Trezor all you need is to recover from seed using a new Trezor. Or you can use another BIP32, BIP39 and BIP44 wallet like Electrum.

Write your seed on paper and you can consider Trezor a "paper wallet" you can actually use daily. No one has been able to argue that Trezor is not secure. Some nitpick that there is some lack of privacy because you can not yet use Trezor with a full node like Bitcoin Core, but Armory has stated that a new release will support Trezor, erasing that last objection.

Anyone with more than a few bitcoin who is not using cold storage is taking a rather large chance. Trezor is the most convenient way to use cold storage and a bargain at $99. Ledger is another choice at $40 but it is worth spending an extra $60 to get the screen on Trezor.

I hear you. I pre-ordered a Case as soon as sales were open back in May. They sent me an email back in September that they would be shipping Sept. 21, here it is over a month later and I have not received the Case yet. No tracking, no further emails. I know they sent out some but had problems with the charger overheating. I would not order from them until they get their act together. That is a shame because it looked like a convenient way to store one or two bitcoin as a hot wallet for easy shopping.

AFAIK. Ofir set up 99bitcoins and built a mailing list fast by offering 100 bits free for signing up. He filled the site with content geared to promoting products he was an affiliate of. His ebook Dirty Little Secrets ($15) explains how he did it. There is some good info in that book for anyone looking to create a website geared to affiliate marketing. I think he got in on the ground floor of some companies like Plus500 and as one of the early affiliates made good money until that well dried up. He sold many copies of the book at a much higher price when it came out. Ofir can write well no doubt. 

Couple of points: building a mailing list is the most important thing any blog owner can do. The list is life. If you have writing talent an ebook explaining any complex subject can be a good earner for you. Worked for Ofir. It only takes your time to write so any income from ebook direct sales is all profit. Take a good look at 99bitcoins and if that business model appeals to you the ebook will explain how to copy. Remember: there is no free lunch and there is a lot of work involved especially in writing. I have not bought the video course so can not comment. I really doubt there are any new pearls in that course that can justify $200 but I might be wrong.

Google is very picky now and you can not fill a blog with crap and expect good rankings for keywords. You have to write quality content or pay someone to do it for you. Once you build a blog up to 30 to 50 thousand visits a month you can get good income from Adsense.

Are you using the latest 0.11.1 Bitcoin Core? Armory still signs transactions HighS while 0.11.1 requires LowS. Armory devs have promised an update soon.

Sorry to hear that. Without hidden wallets and address labels that means myTrezor users who want additional features will go with Electrum over MultiBit HD.

Yes I know about 2.5.1 portable. That is not relevant, I still have a question for a Trezor developer: is Trezor actually signing a transaction LowS which overrides Electrum (or any other wallet that supports Trezor?) If so since there has not been a firmware update since the malleability issue it would seem the Trezor has always signed LowS. Still trying to wrap my head around how exactly Trezor works, the FAQ does not go into detail.

OrangeWebsite in Iceland is another privacy respecting domain registrar and hosting company that accepts bitcoin. You can buy a top level domain from them with bitcoin and remain private. The article at gun.io blog referenced in OP is 3 years old and could be updated. How does Gandi compare to OrangeWebsite for anonymous website hosting?

Does 0.1.4 used with Trezor support hidden wallets with passphrase yet? Thanks.

Yes, I follow the Electrum threads. My question above still stands as I would like to clarify how Trezor works thanks.

Once you get this sorted, and I am sure you will, you might ask yourself if you would be more comfortable using Trezor for cold storage long term.

Yes, if you follow Ofir's advice you are going to be doing a lot of writing which is not for everyone. You also might consider finding a product you are passionate about, would enjoy selling that you can get wholesale. Then it is a simple matter to put up a website to promote and take orders. Besides credit cards accept bitcoin of course:) Take a look at my news magazine. I created it in less than a day using a paid Wordpress theme. If I want to branch out from blogging it is no problem to add on a WooCommerce shop.

I seriously doubt it. Ofir's business model is affiliate marketing and teaching others to do the same for a fee. I certainly have no problem with that. Most of his income last year when I read his book "My Dirty Little Bitcoin Secrets" was from affiliate sales of Plus500. That particular well has run dry it seems as he no longer promotes it. I imagine the udemy course is just his book in video format, perhaps with some new tidbits thrown in. Up to you if you want to pay $197 for it. You might just buy the Dirty Little Secrets book first for 15 bucks to see if you like his approach. There is plenty of good info in the book and it is worth $15. There is no magic formula for success online you can buy. Making a living online is hard work and few people are able to do it.

I'll be glad to test a true portable version that does not write to %AppData%

I have a question for one of the Trezor developers please. ThomasV posted that all versions of Electrum prior to 2.5.1 signed transactions HighS. He had to release a new version of Electrum to agree with the mandate for LowS in latest Bitcoin Core 0.11.1 to end the malleability attack by amaclin. If one tries to spend bitcoin from an earlier version of Electrum the send fails.

I can still use my Trezor with portable Electrum 2.3.2 no problem. Is Trezor actually signing a transaction LowS which overrides Electrum?

Times change. Try using .0005 fee for all transactions.
