Ledger vs Trezor

But couldn't somebody buy a fresh device and get to your coins just by obtaining your recovery seed?

Its a hot wallet... Just how much are you guys moving your coins around?

If you want to move that BTC, Bread is a good option. It lets you sweep the funds, but it is a costly transaction. Importing the private keys is not yet implemented in Jaxx, (it was, but then de-implemented). But anyhow, that private key IS the money.

I have no trouble using MyEtherWallet to send ETH and ERC-20 tokens from a Ledger, I am confident that the experience there would be no different with a Trezor. Just remember what it is for: you must have the dev ice to send the funds. To see what coins that address has, Etherscan tells all.

just don't use a mobile wallet and you are fine

I have a ledger. It does the job. I got it because it was much cheaper on Amazon. I sort of feel like I was tricked into a hardware wallet though. I don't think such extreme security measures are necessary unless you have made yourself a target like this jackass medium.com/@CodyBrown/how-to-lose-8k-worth-of-bitcoin-in-15-minutes-with-verizon-and-coinbase-com-ba75fb8d0bac

I thought the ledger was open source too? Or was just part of it?

Hmm, I might go ahead and do the leger then after all. And that's comforting. I made a paper etherwallet back in the day and did some test transactions but never used it beyond that etherscan to see the pennies.

In the future do you think it'd be possible to use blockchain.info without an "account"? Cheers

Nano. Worth the money. Thank me later.

It's true...best OpSec involves STFU. Thats fine that people know you know about crypto, but just STFU about how much you have, seriously.

We used to joke years ago, the day will come when people would say "Wow you have more than one Bitcoin?" That day has now arrived... but I never say how much to ANYONE and I dont display my wealth like a faggot retard who thinks that's how rich people behave.
