Does Bitkey software collect user analytics?

Revolutionary

When can we get them in NY?

The only bitcoin thing we can get first in NY is Bread zine. 🤣

I'm sorry for your loss

Does it do tor?

BDK is working on Compact Block Filters (CBF), which elevates the need to run an own electrum server. Once CBF is in BDK it will be the default in https://github.com/andreasgriffin/bitcoin-safe

Why finger print security? This is important.

You have the option to use PIN if you don’t want fingerprint

Ok what I don't understand is why isn't it seed phrase? Who has the keys? Like I really don't understand.

Yes 🙌

localhost:50002

localhost? You run electrum on your phone? 👀

I run it on my new dn

Why is it close source? When can we buy it with Bitcoin?

It’s open and we’ll be sharing everything before we ship. Buying with bitcoin is on the roadmap

Great. One thing missing is an option to send to external wallets if we loose the bitkey hardware.

If you haven’t already, check out the various recovery features in our recovery paper

https://bitkey.build/sharing-our-recovery-design/

I read already.

Congrats on this launch! What’s next on the agenda?

If you think about it, it has both!

Major security risk that for this price not even a display is included. Even a cheap Ledger Nano S is better (with knowing the recent data breach news). I think it should be redesigned.

Given everything including the hardware will be open source, anyone can add a screen if they wish.

Everything is trade offs. Read our blog post on screens.

Why do we need a screen on everything ? refrigerator to router , coffee machine to cars ..

I just want it to work

Because if you have any malware on your phone, PC, etc. You can't verify on the device that the Bitcoin address is not changed.

This is huge for the average Joe ✊️

I’m really impressed with what I’ve seen so far. Bitkey seems to take signing devices to the next level much as iPhone did with mobile phones in 2007.

💯.... Pre-ordered .. waiting ..

Block filters would have been nicer

I think this product would be good for someone like my mom. Trying to walk her through the steps to receive bitcoin to her Ledger over the phone is usually an hour-long process.

People are taking notice of your post.

Why did I have a dream about Bitkey yesterday??

(Probably because I spend too much time on nostr)

🧡 important

This is the way 👏🫡💜🫂
