Coldcard, Blockstream Jade, and SeedSigner are all great options. All Bitcoin only. None in bed with Chain Surveillance.
My personal favorite combo is Coldcard + Sparrow Wallet
Discussion
Jade is highly underrated in my opinion
Agree. That’s what I usually recommend for a first hw wallet. Can’t beat the value for the price point either.
My only gripe with Jade is it doesn’t work easily with Sparrow - pretty much only works well with Blockstream Green software
Yea I think it only works with Sparrow as a single sig set up right?
Had trouble Sparrow recognizing my Jade device regardless of whether it was single sig or multi sig. Arman the Parman had a similar issue. Though I’ve heard others say that it is doable so who knows - probably some way to make Jade work with Sparrow - but not as easy as Coldcard with Sparrow. Jade with Green is a good combo too regardless, just wish Green had coinjoin functionality built in like Sparrow
Yea all good points, I was able to connect mine but I think I initially ran into an issue can’t remember what I did to get it to connect, was a while ago. Yea agree with you Green needs to implement whirlpool or jade needs to work better with Sparrow and it would be a deadly device.
I also haven't been able to connect Jade to Sparrow.
Thinking about using Green, but am wondering if there are privacy trade-offs. Does Green store the xpub for your wallet like Ledger Live?
