Hello, Just curious here,

I am looking for a hardware wallet to store coins offline, or safer at least. I was going to get a Ledger, but then I started to think that I would probably be holding more LTC than BTC on any given day, and was wondering if there was such a thing as a Multi-Coin wallet that would allow me to store multiple different coins at the same time.

I have seen some cool Rasberry Pi wallets, one i think is called "Bitsmart wallet", it had 2 Rasberry pis, one was always offline to store the coins and I believe sign the transactions, and then it would transfer it to the online pi and transmit it to the network. I found it very cool and I was wondering if something like that would possibly the best option?

Also, I've heard of the idea of using a rasberry pi, with one of the small 2.8" touchscreen screens for 24 bucks, and get a camera for it, and use the camera to scan codes and that's how you sign transactions without being connected to the internet, is this a possibility? Which would be the cheapest most stable option? I've seen Ledger supposedly supports LTC but then I look around and it seems iffy at best, like It's all up to you to figure it out, and I'm guessing it's one coin or the other (which would be fine, I could buy 2, one for BTC, one for LTC)


Thanks I appreciate your time and help! Let me know what you think is the best option is.

If you are not afraid of getting your hands dirty in some linux, you could totally make what you are looking for.

I would not, however, recommend anything that uses sd cards as they are prone to corruption. Buy something with an eMMC 5.0 flash storage or better and you will have a safer platform for storage.

This post sums up why all this bullshit is a scam
Read It. Hate It. Change the facts that it represents.

This thread is a bit older, but i found it on Google looking for a similar solution and hope that i can help someone who is landing on this page too. One thing i've found is KeepKey, a simple Hardwarewallet for diffrent coins.
For now KeepKey supports Bitcoin, Testnet, Litecoin, Namecoin, Dogecoin, and Dash. I'm not shure if they will/can add more coins in the future.
Here is the link:
