    Thanks for this! I gifted my brother a Jade wallet for his birthday this year and, along with your recent tutorial on the Jade, this one will be an excellent reference for the Green wallet. I am very well versed in in tech having been involved in the field since th early 70s but my brother is a bit of a newb. This was his 73rd birthday. I am 77. Bitcoin is for seniors, too!!🤣

    Very cool, first app that has all the functionalities, was looking for that. How save is bluetooth connection though? Maybe easier for hackers to submit all kinds of malicious data through? And the private key of jade does not leave the device right? When you set up hw wallet in the app and it asks for all the data. Because you said it does get the pin of the device?

    Hey Ben. When using the Jade to secure multiple wallets (Bitcoin, Liquid, and Lightning) are they under the same seed?

    • @teemupleb
      @teemupleb 4 місяці тому

      You can have both Bitcoin and Liquid accounts under the same seed. Lightning bitcoin cannot be stored on Jade.

  • @ShaneTrammel

    I guess by default Green creates a Legacy Wallet. That's what it did with me as well. Seems to me it would be better to create a Native Segwit address Wallet by default.

    • @BTCSessions
      @BTCSessions  7 місяців тому

      Totally agree. I archived the legacy account and created a new segwit one.

    • @InterstellarBountyHunter521
      @InterstellarBountyHunter521 7 місяців тому +1

      Green is a hot wallet. Whenever you sign a transaction with your private keys they are online and could potentially be intercepted. Jade is a cold storage wallet, the keys are only on the physical device itself therefore you or anyone else can't make a transaction without the physical device.
