Happy to help! Check out the Nano S, I love it.

Lol - Honestly I own more physical silver and gold than stocks and cryptos together :-) I love that stuff even I dont make much profits with that....

I used to like silver, but I got out on that epic pump to $49 and haven't really looked back.

It sure is pretty though...and heavy.

You have chosen...well.

I too am slightly worried about a quantum computing black swan, or something to that effect. It's going to be a crazy decade.

My understanding is that this is a chip-manufacture issue, so they would be unable to fix this without actually recalling wallets and replacing them. (unlikely)

*"Do you think they might go for a more secure chip in the next models?"*

I hope so. I think that's necessary to compete with Ledger.

I love my Nano S. Well worth it. I much prefer the styling too, not that that really matters, but it is very snazzy. Makes handling wallets fun.

I have one backordered on the Bitcoin Store. How do I get a refund now?

A good point to keep in mind. However, they are also a bit easier to lose/ruin IMO than a hardware wallet.

I doubt they'll lower the price. I'd still suggest a Nano S instead.

I have never used the Nano, but I love my Nano S.

I think the reason I got the Nano S initially was because of additional currency support.

Nice, I hadn't heard of that one! The Ledger Nano also has the Fido u2f option, but I haven't used it.

If you can still get a full refund, I would.

You don't know how hard it is to keep these things short. I have a tendency to get wordy, and I must remember brevity is the real soul of wit...especially on Steemit.

I had to write an article about it to remind myself.

Paper is just about as physical a shape as a hardware wallet, IMO, and easier to lose.

> Just use a paper wallet with BIP38 encryption and go on.

By far simplest and safest way to keep money on blockchain.

I never understood why people think that their virtual money will be safer with some company's con-trap-tion which will “guarantee” safety. Ridiculous.

Its always something too, once you think your coins are safe BOOM some shit like this comes out.

El dinero "virtual" no se pone de forma "fisica" al usar un hadware Wallet. Los hadware wallet nunca almacenan bitcoin o criptos, lo que almacenan en la semilla con la que firmamos las transacciones.

Almost anything is possible. However, the Ledger is more resistant to this sort of issue, as I noted above, and costs a similar amount.
