It looks user friendly, but that's probably where the positives end. Here is a thread with good discussion about its safety features (Spoilers: it's quite negative). I get that they don't necessarily hold the private keys, but I'm sure most people would prefer generating their own.

I probably wouldn't mind keeping a small amount in one, but a cold wallet is essentially useless if you can't trust it to house a significant portion of your savings lol. To each his own though I suppose.

Appreciate you sending over that thread. I agree a proper cold wallet is definitely a good choice.

I have recently been looking into the Ballet physical wallet since it seems like a solid solution for entry level crypto users however there has been a lot of controversy on Crypto Twitter about them keeping the private keys. I decided to go straight to the source and speak to the CEO Bobby Lee myself about the wallet. I pleased from our conversation and seems like he really wants to provide a solution that brings in new users. I loved his philosophy of possession = real wealth. Curious to know what everyone else thinks?  GrinBTC
