What makes Jade so secure?

The #BlockstreamJade encrypts your wallet data on device - then forgets the secret needed to decrypt it! Many #Bitcoin hardware wallets function similarly but use an on-device secure element to store the extra secret.

With Jade, your extra secret is off-device with a blind oracle, decentralizing your security and acting like a virtual secure element. The only way to get it back? Enter your correct PIN on Jade.

This makes Jade unique in that there is nothing to steal from the locked device alone.

Blockstream makes an appearance my knight in shining armor I'm a bit loaded tonight but first thing tomorrow il read all you're note and reply to it love you Blockstream πŸ«‚πŸ’œπŸ«‘

What if it breaks? How do you restore the wallet?

Restore with 12 seed words backup.

I have an issue with the Jade device due to the small screen size, which makes it difficult for my eyes. Additionally, when sending BTC, the address moves back and forth, making it challenging to verify accurately.”

Do a recovery phrase back up and then update your Jade to the latest firmware, will help with seeing the full #bitcoin sending address ⬇️

Next firmware will have font size increase!

I've been using the Jade for short/medium horizon spending #Bitcoin for nearly 3 years; it's become the starting place I recommend to new folks IRL.

The Jade sounds like a good device. I use a Trezor Model T. Years before the Jade came out.

I like Jade's virtual secure element. I do a similar thing with my Trezor and a high entropy BIP39 passphrase\password.

But I just can't comfortably trust anything closed source for important security. All secure elements are closed source..πŸ€”

Jade’s virtual secure element concept works 100% open source
