Hi everyone,
I thought I would ask the experts (you guys) what the most important features you take into consideration when buying a hardware wallet. I have a cybersecurity tech start-up and want to build a product that meets YOUR needs. If you could build your dream hardware wallet what would it come with? Your feedback is greatly appreciated.
There is never going to be a perfect hardware wallet device but there are several things I would look for before buying some new device:
- Wallet firmware and software must be open source with code audited by security experts.
- It would be a good idea to have Security Element second chip that is not closed source.
- Device must be able to connect with other open source wallets like Electrum, Wasabi, etc.
- Native wallet should have option for Tor support and privacy should be very important.
- Must fully support secure Multisig option.
- Optional Roll your own dices for seed creation.
- AirGap option should be considered.
- Wallet body should be made from metal and look similar like USB drives.
