FINALLY A GOOD REVIEW! great video my friend. You right , there ment to be stacked. Going for one then wait till they come own.
The CryptoDad is one of the real ones out there. You got the stax unboxing and review out there before anyone else. I am sure others have gotten theirs and no one is talking about them. Love your channel and you do a great job sir. Keep it up, I will keep watching you.
Yeah, I was just talking to my mom and dad about this thing, and told them that I recorded the video the day I received it from DHL. And that when you search UA-cam, no one else seems to have an unboxing video out yet. Kudos to you for picking up on that.
@@CryptoDad Hey when it comes to someone you can trust to give an honest review of a product you are the first person that comes to mind. I find it odd that still even today you would have a hard time finding a couple videos. I actually do searches daily to see if anyone else has done one. Probably because I am really excited to receive mine in Batch 3 that it's the closest I can come to one right now lol.
Thank you, will be ordering one when available.
Who cares about stax, when you have a lovely wife like that 😀
NFC signing transactions would be so fire! Truly hope that becomes a feature!
I agree!
I will wait for the second version.
Me wants it, my precious
Can it scan an XRP wallet for NFTs?
The STAX supports Qi wireless charging. So any standard Qi charger should work.
Cool thanks!
nice ! Good to know. I wonder if gets alittle warm by using diffrnt brands. my galaxy folds did abit.
@8:30 once you confirmed that picture, the capacity of the stax increased from 1.07 to 1.09 Mb. Did you had another picture before, and once you replaced it it made more available space for the apps?
Yes, I believe there was an NFT being used as the lock screen picture before I loaded that picture of my wife.
Hi
I need your help. I can’t download the STX app on the Stax ledger
It looks like the stacks (www.coingecko.com/en/coins/stacks) app is not available for the STAX device yet. You are going to have to wait until ledger updates it. You can still use it on your ledger Nano X.
I just confirmed that the stax app is actually available on the ledger stax device, you'll just have to contact ledger support.
Sorry for the misinformation.
Actually installed the app today, it was a little difficult but it definitely works sir.
@@Cryptodad1 I contact Ledger. It looks like they don’t have no clue. Thanks anyway for the help.
@@s.hervey6173 You should open a ticket.
I was able to migrate the stacks app from my nano s plus to my ledger stax.
The only issue i had with the process was the 24 hour wait time.
😃👍🏼👊🏼
Is it worth $300?
I like what I see, but I have doubts about the value.
Yes, $269. I love the improved interface, and I love this E ink display screen. But paying that much is indeed a big ask.
@@CryptoDad
Plus tax.... I'm concerned about the memory.
I don't want to spend $900 to have a stack of them... But I do like the looks of it.
For $279 no I don't think I will be buying more than one to stack them like they want me to 😂 now I do use two different Tangem hardware wallets one with everyday usage and the other one with my cold storage stuff but they're only 50 bucks a piece so I didn't feel bad buying two. Ledger Stax looks cool but it's a tough sale for me between the price and not trusting ledger like I used to.
Yes, I totally agree. Expecting a user to own several STAX devices is a big ask. And the Tangem price point makes it a no-brainer to buy more than one card set.
Must be how the Tesla owners felt when they paid upfront to wait...and wait... Hopefully, the disappointment will not mimic EV ownership. Internal combustion engines for ever; love my V8s. Keep fighting the good fight Rex.
CryptoDad does it again. Another great video. Thank you.
If I may ask,
1) Is there a migration function from the X to Stax?
2) Does Stax allow swapping in the device?
Basically, it's just a fancy way to have a normal keyboard for passphrases. The S Plus covers 99.99% of the features of the STAX at a fraction of the price.
Felt video stopped at end
Yes, I forgot to slap on my ending tag.
"Every hardware wallet requires some level of trust." That is flat-out wrong. Only the ones that use closed source code require trust.
You're doubling-down on defending Ledger and closed-source code, which makes me wonder if you don't know the difference between a seed and a signature. No hardware wallet should be able to expose a seed to the internet. You said that yourself before Ledger introduced the ability to extract keys over the internet.
Every single hardware wallet that employs a secure element chip is by definition, not completely open source. And most of the major brands employ secure element chips. They are secret by design to prevent tampering. They are proprietary technology. They are usually purchased from 3rd party vendors that actually keep the inner working secret to protect their intellectual property.

If you don't believe me, check out this video by Andreas Antonopoulos. He literally wrote the book on Bitcoin (www.oreilly.com/library/view/mastering-bitcoin/9781491902639/)
Bitcoin Q&A: Can You Trust a Hardware Wallet to Generate Your Seed?
He says the exact same thing (I actually got his from him): "Every hardware wallet requires some level of trust."
I have included the timecode in this link: ua-cam.com/video/cONG2ZNjJ0c/v-deo.htmlsi=zNk9cLlQ7PBwm5T3&t=23
@@CryptoDad Not all hardware wallets use secure element chips. I know you know this, so are you intentionally spreading misinformation in order to justify Ledger's actions? Secure element chips require NDAs, which is why not all hardware wallets use them.
No hardware wallet should enable the seed to connect to the internet. You said so yourself in your older videos.
@@asteriskesque can you explain how the "seed" connects to the internet?
@@jamesjordanjr6175 Sure.
A hardware wallet's job is to keep you safe by preventing anything connected to the internet from accessing your seed. This is referred to as "a cold wallet." The seed is never connected to the internet. Even when you connect your hardware wallet to your computer, your computer can't access your seed phrase on a hardware wallet.
When you make transactions, your hardware wallet gets a request for a transaction from your app & it creates a signature to authorize the transaction. The signature is cryptographic proof that you have the keys, but the signature doesn't contain or reveal the keys. That's how a hardware wallet keeps you safe.
What Ledger did was write firmware that gives their hardware wallets the ability to share the seed over the internet with Ledger and Ledger's partner companies ("Ledger Recover"). That means Ledger hardware wallets aren't "cold wallets" anymore. They're "hot wallets," because when you connect the hardware wallet to your computer, your seed can be reached over the internet.
Ledger says this feature is optional, but Ledger's code isn't fully open, so you have to trust them to be telling you the truth, which is hard to do since Ledger lied about the seed being accessible over the internet.
The important thing to understand here is that when Ledger's code gets hacked, nobody is going to find out until it's too late. Once hackers figure out how to get in, they're going to keep the hack a secret until they've stolen as many seeds as possible. And you'll have no way of knowing if hackers have your seed until they've stolen your coins. I'd expect hackers to not start emptying wallets until they've stolen as many seeds as they can, because they won't want to Let Ledger know there's a vulnerability in their code. Once hackers have your seed, they don't need to access your device ever again, since your seed phrase is the keys to your entire wallet unless you're using a passphrase. But since Ledger's code isn't fully open, we have no way of knowing if hackers could access your passphrase too.
I want to make one thing clear here. Ledger Recover isn't the problem. Ledger Recover is a good idea for people who want an additional form of backup. The issue is that Ledger spent years saying the seed phrase will never leave the device and will never be exposed to the internet, and then they wrote the code to do it. And worse, they put that code on your hardware wallet whether you want it or not. It's baked into the firmware.
Too many influencers who receive free Ledger devices and reply on views for videos about Ledger hardware are either not being honest with their viewers, or they aren't well informed about the products they're reviewing.
@@jamesjordanjr6175 Was my reply to you deleted? I typed a long detailed reply to your question to explain the details. Hopefully you saw it, because among other things, I explained the difference between an app having access to a seed vs a signature. Is Crypto Dad deleting replies he doesn't like? That's dishonest.
