BitBox02 | Model One | |
---|---|---|
Introduction | BitBox02 The 'Bitbox02' by Shift Crypto is a Swiss-made general-purpose hardware wallet focusing on security and transparency. The wallet is straightforward to set up as it comes delivered with an SD Card that can be used as a backup method. The BitBox02 wallet supports many popular cryptocurrencies directly with its native Desktop and Android app BitBoxApp. The BitBox02 runs on open-source firmware, meaning anyone can verify the crucial source code of the wallet. The hardware wallet has a unique dual-chip architecture that allows the wallet to be both open-source and discretely protected by physical attacks by a secure chip at the same time, which makes it one of the most secure and transparent hardware wallets available on the market. | Model One The 'Model One' by Trezor is a relatively cheap, general-purpose hardware wallet. With its free, open-source app 'Trezor Suite' this hardware wallet supports many different cryptocurrencies and NFTs out of the box, yet still lacks support for dozens of altcoins that its successor the Model T supports. The wallet has no touch screen and is operated with a two-button pad. The Model One runs on open-source firmware and therefore misses a so-called Secure Element chip for internal security due to its single-chip architecture, which results in rather low protection against hardware attacks. |

Opinion | BitBox02 86% Good /2024 The BitBox02 is pleasant to use on Desktop and Android devices and has the most straightforward set-up of all hardware wallets we have tested so far. Because of the uniquely secure and transparent architecture of the BitBox02, we recommend this wallet to anyone with a significant amount invested in crypto assets and who values above-average security for a moderate price. However, as the BixBox02 misses support for many altcoins, this hardware wallet may not be the best option for all hardcore altcoin fans. | Model One 89% Good /2024 The Model One by Trezor is a decent hardware wallet with sufficient functionality and build quality, yet it supports fewer coins and offers less security than competitor models in the same price range. Still, because the Model One runs on open-source firmware that offers high transparency for a very cheap price, it is a decent budget hardware wallet. |
