I was lucky to get #41 to #50 Smiley
Ah damn. Those are some nice numbers... Well, they should sell well once they get more popular. Goodluck with your store!

Yes, the higher serial numbers are still in sale for $99 I think. Should be way past #200 by now.
Yeah, I am guessing you got some lower range numbers? I really have no idea what I will get, but I can't wait to receive it Grin

thanks, I'll pin that to the first post
No problem! I hope you like it. Oh, by the way, I left you your first positive trust feedback Grin

If an address hasn't received anything transaction, the transaction page looks "horrible". There are messages like "null / 0" and more stuff like that. Keeping it blank might better.

BitcoinInformation's review of the HW.1

Packaging

The cards arrived in a plain letter, which I like and dislike at the same moment. I love simplicity, but on the other hand, having some kind of casing or box would have been awesome as well. This might be safer, since mail isn't handled that carefully (nor carefull at all at some points).






The cards themself
The cards look amazing if you ask me. It feels like someone spend a lot of time designing them and it paid off in my opinion. These look like something you could buy in a store, bring home and get started with (and I would love to see something like this).


I snapped one of the cards out of its "casing" and it felt nice and sturdy, even though it's tiny. After that I broke off the clip part and put the HW.1 inside my USB port. It wasn't recognized by Windows and it kept falling out. I asked btchip about this and he told me that the clip should be folded. At that moment I realized that I made a mistake, but some superglue, luckily, fixed it. Roll Eyes





Using the HW.1
Setting up the HW.1 is quite easy, once you get that you need to create a new wallet and use the HW.1 to generate the seed (which will be stored on the HW.1 as well). I first tried to use the KryptoKit that was made for the HW.1, but I was told that this was outdated and not recommended, so I switched to GreenAddress.it (which is the recommended software at this moment).

I first installed the necarrasy driver from the website, after which I downloaded the GreenAddress.it extension for Chrome and selected that I wanted to create a new wallet. I plugged in the HW.1 wallet and it was quickly recognized by Windows and an extra option appeared on the GreenAddress.it wallet creation menu.



I set up a wallet and was able to login with the HW.1 wallet, so that worked perfectly. The next step is testing it with my Android phone (which happened to have OTG). I installed the GreenAddress.it for Android and plugged in my HW.1. It was instantly recognized by Android (4.2.2) and asked me if I wanted to open the GreenAddress.it app. This time I didn't want to create a new wallet, but simply login. It asked me for the Pin Code I set during the Wallet Creation and was then asked if I wanted to logout my computer, because you can only have one session at a time. I accepted that and was logged in successfully.





Conclusion

It's a fun thing to have with a lot of potential. The setup is a bit hard, but the btchip team is working on a startup page, so it should be more clear in the future. I think it's a very handy device for those Bitcoiners that can spend a little.

NOTE: I'm not a professional reviewer and I never will be. Keep that in mind.

Ah, I see. So, generate a new wallet and let the dongle generate the seed itself. Got it.

EDIT: Sorry for all these questions. Never used hardware wallets in my life.
6527  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: [NOW AVAILABLE] btchip : a Smartcard wallet on: September 14, 2014, 04:27:03 PM
You should give a try to greenaddress.it Smiley
I am using GreenAddress.it right now (Chrome), but it says that my dongle isn't setup yet, which is why I asked. I want to have everything straight for my review, so that it's fair (and informative as well) Tongue
6528  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: [NOW AVAILABLE] btchip : a Smartcard wallet on: September 14, 2014, 04:21:48 PM
Just a quick question, how do I setup the HW.1 wallet? With the KryptoKit Bitcoin Wallet (Unofficial HW1 BUILD)? I'm assuming it is, but I prefer to be sure.
6529  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: [NOW AVAILABLE] btchip : a Smartcard wallet on: September 14, 2014, 04:10:32 PM
nicely done, we should package it with fine french knives for the collector edition Grin
Hahaha. You should! It's a great solution Grin
I am glueing it back together with superglue, so it should be fine after this "operation". Well, the drivers worked and my computer did recognize the HW.1 so I am going to do some more testing and write up a review (including pictures + my stupidity) as soon as I am done.

Yes, the clip is basically what makes it thick enough to stay in the port  Grin

you should be able to clip it back (picture coming soon)
You can clip it back and breaking it off is quite hard. In my defence, I really thought I had to remove it.




It "works"

6531  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: [NOW AVAILABLE] btchip : a Smartcard wallet on: September 14, 2014, 04:00:46 PM
Uhm, you need to keep the clip on the HW.1? Because well... I broke it off. Lips sealed
6532  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: [NOW AVAILABLE] btchip : a Smartcard wallet on: September 14, 2014, 03:52:24 PM
Good  Grin sorry the start page is not ready yet, I'm waiting for catchy videos, but GreenAddress setup should be straightforward - in any case don't hesitate to ask around if you're stuck.
First of all, redirect http://start.hardwarewallet.com to the https one. I got a nice error page because I visited the http one Tongue

Also, I have troubles with keeping the thing inside my USB port... It keeps falling out/losing the connection because it moved. It's not thick enough to stay in..
6533  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: [NOW AVAILABLE] btchip : a Smartcard wallet on: September 14, 2014, 03:44:10 PM
I have received my HW.1. I'm installing the drivers as we speak, let's hope this works Grin

You already got your Kialara Physical Bitcoin? Shocked Oh damn, I am jealous! Mine hasn't arrived yet, sadly. I wish you all the best with your store and I might buy something if I find anything that is within my price range. Grin

I do feel compelled to say that the Kialara Physical Bitcoin can/could be brought from here. This is the official website of the guy that created them. (His Reddit post as proof).

doesnt cloudflare do this for free?

No
It does, don't lie to potential customers. Everybody knows that CloudFlare offers DDoS protection. It might not be extremely advanced, but most people don't need it (and if they do they just buy one of the avaible packages).

No, we don't do that browser check!

We protect against DDoS!
This post makes no sense at all. CloudFlare does this check to ensure someone isn't a bot (which most DDoS attacks use).

This has been posted before (click), but I think it's good to post these things multiple times, since they tend to get lost on this forum.

The url is quite decent as well. I had to triple check it before I was it was "bil" in stead of "bit".

I had the whole dump in my possesion and checked for my own accounts. I found none of them (of course). The dump itself includes passwords, so yeah, you are fucked if you are on that list. Roll Eyes

Bitin.io is okay now. They paid to all and the enrollment is still going. I think it would be nice if '*' is removed. Smiley

  ~~MZ~~
Still waiting for the people that said they didn't get paid to post here about their payment / someone else posting her explaining why they didn't get paid. So, for now, the asterisk stays.
