Ah. My bank's 2fa token is an EMV card that also has a ~ 14 key keypad, a display and a built-in battery so I figured it ought to be possible in a standard smartcard form factor. it's possible, just a bit more work (and money, of course). I'm calling that a display card, not a smartcard though, but probably only because I'm too pedantic If I were to buy a hardware wallet, it would be to protect me if my computer is compromised. The use case where the wallet is stolen and I need to protect against brute force attacks doesn't seem too important, because $5 wrench attack. I'm not really keen on buying a hardware wallet if it doesn't fully cover the case where my computer is compromised.
this second factor scheme protects you well enough if your computer is compromised, in my opinion. Feel free to discuss why you think it doesn't by PM if necessary I guess your solution should be much cheaper than trezor though.
yep, "much" sums it up pretty well.

I've only read many messages about Trezor. Not sure whether there are reliable alternatives yet, but I'm sure they'll be developed otherwise. I think Trezor already is a great device, but the current price of $119 is a bit too high for me. However, if you own many BTC and do pay with BTC offline, I don't think the price of a Trezor is too high then for you.

Hi all,
I am doing some research for a Bitcoin company that is interested with developing a hardware wallet to see if it has a viable market. Trezor has some traction, but perhaps only in the existing Bitcoin community. With things like Multi-sig popping up everywhere, do you think this negates some of the pressing need for Hardware wallets? Interested to hear your thoughts.
Of course alongwith me many people are gonna buy it security concern has been increasing day by day.People are more and more worried about storing their coins somewhere safely

i would never buy a hardware wallet. why would you buy something that's not secured enough like your own wallet in your pocket. there are always good hackers i don't trust a hardware wallet.

Yes I would do this because I must say that its pretty safe and nice altrough I maybe would make one by myself because I think some hardware wallets are not trusted in my eyes.

Buying one would be pretty nice, I think a lot of people will also buy this to be honest, and I also like this idea. They are good secured mostly and also easy.

If I didn't already have a hardware wallet, I would buy one right away. I have a Ledger nano and love the thing! I can't believe it took me so long to buy one. I think a hardware wallet still has a huge market, even with multi-sig. It's so much easier to be able to just plug in a secure device and spend your bitcoin. A hardware wallet must be portable and easy to use. I love how small the Ledger nano is and how well it works with my phone via OTG cable.

Good idea to initiate hard wallet for better security and comfortable used. i think the problem is still about price of that wallet,i'm sure people more like to choose online wallet with free registration,because trezor is still expensive for some people,can you give us free hardware wallet?

I agree, I also would like to do this because its very safe and I think its just cool to have such a wallet. Hardware wallets are just pretty safe.

Yes I would buy one! The case bitcoin wallet or the trezor is a good option for a hardware wallet I have been wanting to buy one for along time now, but its a bit expensive! Paper wallets are a free alternative!
