Eicolorte Indestructible Cold Wallet Backup, Silver, RFID Protected, Bi-Fold, Minimalist, Adults, Unisex, Alloy Steel, Wallet, Accessory

There are two main structures to a cold storage steel wallet: The body and the letter tiles. For those that don't know: You use the letter tiles to store your password/passphrase/secret words/security key, by arranging them in the body--which locks the tiles in place. Thus your secret is kept physically safe because it is strong, fire proof (being 100% metal) and water proof The body is very well constructed and feels just like the "original." The letter tiles are stamped instead of laser engraved. This causes two key differences. A) the letter tiles are actually easier to read. B) The letter tiles are a bit curved because of them being stamped. So, while the original looks much better in appearance because each tile is uniform, the stamped tiles in this set look a bit haphazard when it is completed. It only looks that way. It is still very strong and nothing is loose. I also like the fact that the tiles come individual in a plastic container and not as part of a punch-out card. Pushing each tile out of a punch-out card made of metal took some effort. Arranging the tiles in this body was easier.

Everything works as intended and is good out of the box. Let me give you some info I wish I had known when I bought it that I either missed or was not easy to find in reviews/elsewhere. 1. the tiles you slide in are two sided. So if you were intending to use the back of the tiles for something (like hidden code or ordering of the tiles before you slide them in, this will not work). 2. The mechanism keeping the tiles in place is good. There's 2 mechanisms in fact, one is a screw that locks it and the other is a pressure based mechanism (almost like a spring lock) that you have to disengage to open it even if the screw is unlocked. 3. It's heavier than expected. If you were going to tape this somewhere, you might need stronger tape than you thought. 4. You can always solder the mechanism closed to absolutely prevent it from opening. (which I did).

This is perfect for storing your private pass keys. It’s simple an indestructible backup of pen and paper private keys. When setting up a cold wallet such as a Ledger Nano X or a Trevor Model T, you write down the private keys on paper or a card. When setting up a cold wallets you write down up to 24 private keys or 24 words on paper. Paper is easily destroyed. With the Steelwallet you put the keys into this stainless steel device. The instructions are great and easily to understand. There are videos you can also watch on YouTube. We only use the first 4 letter at the most for each of the 24 words. On 3 letter words there are blank fillet tiles. There are plenty of tiles. One of the most common tile is the “A/E” tile. I had probably 16 tiles left over when I was finished putting all 24 words into this SteelWallet. Each tile has 2 sided so you can flip over the “A” to use as an “E”.

This is really a study and safe way to keep your seed phrase to your wallet. The downside is that it's tedious to setup and I feel the unit should be about twice the size. My fingers ached after going through the process. I'm old enough that I learned how to set type in high school graphics class. This really reminds me of that. Yes the old news paper type where you select types from a bin and to be fast you had to memorize the layout of the entire alphabet. Theres no need to memorize anything here, but you have to keep referring to the box for each and every letter to find the tiny letter types or squares. Once it's setup though, it's forever. I just wish it was bigger. Twice as big. Oh - and the review where people complain that not enough space is available? Well you ONLY use the first 4 letters of each word. The fifth and beyond letter are unnecessary as the first 4 are always unique. The instructions should emphasis this. So YES there is enough space for a 24 word seed.

As advertised. Tough n heavy, obviously able to withstand floods, earthquakes, and fires. Plenty of letters to do any 24 word seed phrase. Good product, good value, seed now safe!

The item description is not accurate. This is not a"Cryptocurrency Steel Wallet". The function of this item is limited to one use, and one use only (and that is a very important use...read on). When you buy/sell cryptocurrency on an exchange such as Coinbase, then your assets are held for a short period of time and then released to you. These assets should never be left in storage on your exchange. Instead, your investment should be sent to a device that is not accessible via the internet. The preferred method of accomplishing this degree of security is to send your coins/crypto assets to an offline device known as a hardware wallet. I use a Trezor Model T hardware wallet myself. Each hardware wallet requires a PIN in order to transfer coins/crypto in and out of your exchange. Since the hardware wallet is not physically connected to the internet (much like a thumb drive) then the only way for someone to steal your assets would be for them to physically steal your hardware wallet, and then somehow hack your PIN in order to gain access. Your fail safe if your hardware wallet is lost or stolen is what is known as a recovery seed and that is where this backup device comes into play. You can store your recovery seed on this item which is essentially an indestructible steel plate that looks like it could withstand an atomic bomb blast. If your Trezor, or other hardware wallet, is lost or stolen, then all you need to do to recover your assets is buy a new hardware wallet and enter your recovery seed into the device in order to recover your funds. Your recovery seed is extremely important, you can lose your wallet without losing the funds stored there as long as you have your recovery seed. IF, on the other hand, you lose your recovery seed, then you can lose every last dime that is stored in your hardware wallet. That is why this extremely robust and simple storage device is available to store your seed. I recommend that you still store this device in a locking fire safe. I also recommend that you keep a back-up paper copy of your recovery seed at a secure alternate site. Good luck with your Crypto investments! Jimmy

Ordered this a few months ago and opened it recently. There’s a missing lock gate in one side so it’s unusable. How do you forget to put an essential element on a product. It’s like buying a house with no door. Of course I can’t return it because it’s been too long and can’t even get in touch with the seller. Don’t buy this one, pay a little more for all of the parts. It’s made in the EU with love and apparently meth or OxyContin

I bought this as a present for my son, who has developed an interest in cryptocurrency. The design has a frame into which you slide and lock pre-imprinted letter tabs. This allows you to store your 24 word BIP-39 recovery phrase. The case is made from brushed stainless steel, as are the imprinted letter tabs. It is well made. The fit of all parts is good, and the locking mechanism that retains the tabs is secure. The wallet will survive water, fire, a hammer, being run over by a truck, and pretty much anything else you can throw at it. Great, right? Yes, except for one detail. In order to save money, each metal tab has two different letters printed on it. For instance, G one side, and P on the other. The problem is, the imprint telegraphs to the other side, making some of the letters very hard to read. The whole point of this product is to securely store your passphrase. Having letters that can't be easily read defeats the purpose. You might fix this by filling in the letter imprints with ink or paint, but that's more work than I ought to have to do on a $100 purchase to make it usable. And it makes it not fireproof. Maybe I just got a bad lot of imprinted tabs, but I'll be returning this one.

Does the job, sturdy. And by the way you only need the first four letters of every word. You can use 24 word phrase.

Ao contrário só que o utilizador thomas hessler disse, é obvio que cabem as 24 palavras da seed, apenas é necessário guardar as primeiras 4 letras de cada palavra, podem acreditar ou pesquisar para entender que é assim que funciona, não é preciso a totalidade das letras de cada palavra, é a melhor solução para guardar a vossa seed para toda a vida

La placa que guarda las palabras de la 13 a la 24 no esta, solo viene del primer lado (de la 1 a la 12) por lo que no es funcional en mi opinion

Il prodotto sembra veramente molto solido, e decisamente pesante. Inoltre i giunti e il cardine sono fatti molto bene, senza particolari giochi. Bisogna notare che si apre facendo scorrere le due meta' in una sola direzione, dato che un perno ne impedisce la rotazione nell'altro senso. Quindi se non riuscite ad aprirlo semplicemente invertite la direzione. Una volta capito verra' immedianto. Il meccanismo che si apre per inserire le lettere ha un doppio lock, una vite e un perno da premere. Occorre svitare la vite di un quarto di giro, se non ci riuscite probabilmente e' gia' svitata e occorre solamente sbloccare la levetta. L'inserimento delle lettere e' abbastanza intuitivo e non presenta difficolta'. Non ci sono giochi o interferenze particolari quindi scorrono abbastanza bene. Occorre comunque avere un po' di pazienza specialmente per le lettere che devono essere inserite nella parte opposta alla fessura di inserimento. I tasselli con lettere sono ben fatti e con incisioni abbastanza profonde, quindi non c'e' rischio che con un danneggiamento parziale risultino illeggibili. Infine, e' presente un foro che a portafoglio chiuso permette di introdurre un lucchetto per impedirne l'apertura. Nella confezione che mi e' arrivata erano anche presenti dei sigilli da apporre al portafoglio una volta chiuso, in maniera tale da accorgesi se e' stato manomesso. Un ottimo prodotto. Il prezzo sinceramente e' maggiore rispetto ad altre soluzioni analoghe, ma non mi sono affatto pentito dell'acquisto. Lo reputo un ottimo prodotto.

Despite other reviews this indeed works with 24 words of the typical pass phrases. So if you want to secure your ledger or trezor, it is indeed going to fit, as only the first four letters of any given word needs to be remembered due to bip39 mnemonic specifications. Very nice build quality. Can be used with a padlock for added security.
