I was wondering when you are carrying a partial transaction from your PC to your wallet for signing, is there a way a malware can be carried into you wallet that steals your private keys? Great video btw. It's people like you, that are educating others on the strengths of Bitcoin and how to utilize it, that make the difference. 👍

Thanks for the comment, and great question! The keys are segregated on the device to prevent this. My understanding is that the SD card doesn't have access to the keys, only the finished signed transaction. I'll perhaps defer to Rodolfo at coinkite for clarification on this though.

No worries! So cloning will basically copy all your settings/preferences PLUS any items you have in a new feature (which I made a video on) called seed vault. Importing the seed is fine as well, this just streamlines the process and grabs any additional info you've imported.

I Checked my Coldcard Master Fingerprint and my Sparrow wallet for the cold card and they have the same fingerprint...Any thoughts?

I had previously purchased a Trezor Model T, via the referral link, after watching your video's a little over a year ago. However, I don't have a backup hardware wallet, so I was looking to purchase one. After watching your Top 6 Bitcoin Hardware wallets of 2022, I narrowed it down to the Coldcard or the Keystone. After watching both of your detailed usage videos on each of the two, I am leaning more toward purchasing the Coldcard Wallet (via your referral link). Then after copying the wallets created on the Trezor to the Coldcard, I plan to wipe the Trezor and have it as the backup as it is less secure than the Trezor due to the Coldcard being air-gapped. Thanks once again, Ben!!! One question: Would you recommend using the Micro SD over the Virtual Disk with the Coldcard?
@JamesClifford1
@JamesClifford1 Жыл бұрын
Awesome Video Ben! Thank you! I received my Cold Card and walked my way through with your help. I appreciated the discount that I received by using your link when purchasing it. I chose to use unsigned transactions with the micro USB as it is the most secure being totally air-gapped. When Sparrow Wallet supports NFC I will switch to NFC.

Relating to the part where you created a backup and then restored the wallet using that backup: didn't you say it was an encrypted backup? I didn't see you enter a passphrase or decrypt anything. Did i miss anything? What could a person who found the file or the wordlist do with it? Or is it that the backup file is an encrypted file and the wordlist is the key to decrypt it? Probably that now that I write and think about it. I'll leave the comment in case it wasn't clear to anyone else.

I have my mk4 coldcard with wasabi as my desktop wallet but I’ve been hearing disappointing news about wasabi regarding privacy. If I want to switch over to sparrow wallet, do I simply initiate an import to sparrow wallet as was done in the video?

You're exactly right - simply import and you're set! Regarding Wasabi, I was also disappointed. However, it only pertains to the coinjoin function of the wallet - so if you opt to use it as a basic desktop wallet it will still function with the same basic privacy. That said - Sparrow is awesome.

Does anyone know what this part at 23:20 is? I am trying to setup XPUB for pocketbitcoin recurring purchases, and in their tutorial they say you should use account number 1 for pocket when exportting your wallet with generic json. I don't understand why that is? Are account numbers just other bitcoin public addresses or?

My understanding is that it's the "pathway" used to generate addresses. Your hardware can generate a massive number of bitcoin addresses, and you need to decide which ones your wallet starts from. Changing the account number from blank (technically account 0) will change your starting point. When pocketbitcoin says account 1, they likely mean just the default pathway.

If you use wasabi are you required to use a 25th word with the cc? Or that’s only required in wasab for a desktop wallet?

The password with wasabi is just to unlock the desktop software itself if I'm not mistaken. It has no bearing on the actual seed phrase of your Coldcard. It's basically a mechanism to prevent someone from auditing your balance if they get access to your computer.

@@BTCSessions thank you for the reply. I have gone through your tutorials and checked out everything cold card has put out and I didn’t know if it encrypted via the 25th word which would make it incompatible with 24 word seed wallets, which is my concern. I haven’t been able to find a solid answer

@@se6586 so with Coldcard, you put your 25th word into the hardware itself, then you can access it from any 3rd party wallet software. I would not add anything else outside of this, as it can complicate things and possibly result in user error.

Anyone else receive a coldcard that says “Bag Me Now” at first power on? I assume it means it wasn’t setup properly prior to shipping and I’ll need a replacement. Hopefully product support is good.

@1:14:05 what gets actually saved to the SD-card @ setting up BIP-85 derived secret? The plain-text 12-word seed unencrypted? And what is the use case of this saved file? Where do I have to store it (in comparison the backup of Coldcard is in an encrypted file...)

Ledger lead me here. Thanks to Ledger, I'm now looking for alternative storage where I have my keys.
But how does bitcoin actually work?
