It should look like case bitcoin credit card, it should be as easy to case bitcoin as a credit card. What do you think of the better funded further ahead wallets the talk about cold storage disconnected from the Internet?
The benefit of our device over traditional web wallets is security. Our devices are embedded. Everything that we wrote lives on the firmware.
Being in possession one of the keys is a lot, you own it, you feel it. That is very case bitcoin. Can you break into the firmware and get the physical token? You built this firmware yourself. How do I know that this is most secure than other solutions.
Why do I trust you? We are building it for the ground up and you can trust us. Will case bitcoin support other currencies?
