IF YOU BOUGHT THE NEW TANGEM WALLET: Several people have said they received their cards and the security tape is broken or the box is not sealed well. Here’s a reply from Tangem about the issue: “It’s come to our attention that an additional seal that protects the Tangem Wallet box from opening during transportation got damaged. But we guarantee that you have nothing to worry about. Any damage to the box’s seal does not constitute a security breach. Tangem cards cannot be physically modified and our app can accurately check the following: • The card was produced by Tangem. • The card has not been tampered with. Tangem’s end-to-end certification means that it’s entirely safe to buy, even in a city underpass. The most important things to note are that: You have installed the official Tangem app and the cards prompt you to create a wallet. If not, reset the cards to factory settings. At the same time, you receive your cards without a private key. You alone can generate a private key on the card's chip when creating a wallet. Your Tangem Wallet is still as as secure as possible.” Hopefully this helps ease your minds. - Alex
My only question is: is the sealing does not matter really at all, why then they produce sealing in their packaging to only it get broken in transportation! so they have to explain its OK to have broken seal. Its a bit of a discomfort to say the least honestly. I am not questioning their integrity but if I learned one thing in crypto world (which I burnt enough personally in the past) everything is almost always fine and guarantees 100% from the service providers, UNTIL ITS NOT.
Another excellent video. Tangem, IMO, is the only way to go. Why would anyone not get the 3 card set? $10 gives you yet another backup. The 3rd cars goes in you safe deposit box. If you cant keep your cards secure you have no business in crypto.
Thank you. However, if you choose the seed phrase option you don’t necessarily NEED the 3rd card because you can use your seed phrase to recover your wallet. But to your point, $10 for an extra card is a great deal. - Alex

@@cyberscrilla thank you - yes there is an important case to be shown - Explaining the follwoing Issue Cases: why a Lost phone doesnt matter, lost one or two of the cards (emergency locking?) and why i am still save and the strategic emergency steps explained. i guess with all of that together it will show that this kind of system is really rock-solid - lets call it "benchmarking the Tangem from Users point of view" ? how about that? Thank you !
Sorry I am new to all this. You mentioned the cards do not support multiple wallet addresses. Why would I need this? Just checking if it's important to me at this stage, as I'm ready to order the Tangem 2.0s.
Meaning the public address. For example, some wallets allow you to have multiple receiving addresses for ETH. Tangem simply provides a single address for each token. Not really an issue in my opinion. - Alex
this is mine too. I suppose what we would have to do is use a card to transfer funds to a device with seed phrase on it before we lose or damage last card for this to happen
Off of the research I have done, once you have made the wallet with no seed phrase, there is no going back. You would have to purchase a brand new set of cards and transfer your funds over!
Not exactly. If you initially set up your Tangem wallet without a seed phrase but later decide you want to use one, you can. All you need to do is factory reset the cards and set up a new wallet using the seed phrase option. However, if you have crypto in your seedless wallet, you’ll need to transfer it temporarily to another cold wallet, hot wallet, or exchange. Once your new seed phrase wallet is set up, you can transfer the crypto back. This is important because if you reset the seedless wallet while it still holds crypto, you’d lose access to it since there’s no private key to recover it.
Last question: Let’s say you have a BILLION dollars worth of $BTC. How would you secure it using just a Tangem wallet? What physical lengths would you go to to ensure you do not ever lose it, and what would you do if you wanted to move countries with your assets safely preserved?
I’d generate a seed phrase using the Tangem wallet. Then I’d record the seed phrase in a metal seed plate so it’s fireproof, waterproof, etc. And I’d keep that in in a safe or a safe location. You don’t have to do anything to move crypto to another country. Just bring your seed phrase and a wallet. Even if you lost all your Tangem cards, as long as you have your seed phrase, you can access your funds from any wallet by importing your phrase. - Alex
If I buy set of 3 and keep 2 backups at different locations for safety. What if I lose the primary card which is with me. Will I still be able to: 1. Use the backup card then 2. Configure remaining 2 cards afterwards in case I change my phone device?
Yes, you will still be able to use the two or even one (if you lose two). I recommend backing up all the cards at once before storing them, this way you can set the PIN code. And even if you get a new phone, you can still use the cards as normal. You’ll just need to scan them and enter your PIN code. That said, if you get the 2.0, you can record and store your seed phrase. Then you can access your crypto using any wallet by simply importing your seed phrase, which is what I do. - Alex
Random question 🙋♂️ Are all the cards 💳 linked to each other or can they be used separately? Let’s say 3 people can get one card each since you buying 3 cards in your order. I’m just curious if that’s possible.
No, simply because you need an NFC capable phone to scan the cards. So a phone is required. But it’s extremely secure if that’s what you’re worried about. - Alex
No way. Think of it as a savings account. That said, you could keep it in your wallet without any issues. It’s practically indestructible and not affected by other cards, X ray machines, etc. - Alex
Thanks for the great content on this wallet!! Quick question. If you do the 12 word seed phrase option are the cards still necessary? Like you mentioned if the cards get lost you can still access your crypto since you have the seed phrase. Does that question make sense?
Yes and no. If you want to use Tangem to approve transactions and manage your crypto, you need the cards. To your point, if you have another brand hardware wallet, you can import your 12 word seed phrase into it and use that wallet as well.
Thanks for the fast Feedback CS , I did a Factory reset on my New Tangem Wallet 2.0, they are ready for use. seems like the box security tape is (very thin) and can easily rip on its own just with the Shipping , iam sure Tangem is aware of the matter and will improve the quality of security tape.
Thx bro for your content. I wonder when we generate the seed phrases, do we need to turn on airplane mode since the phrase show up on phome that might be hacked?? And can we reset factory the card and regenerate a new wallet to use while the previous still exist on app? Thx again bro
One more question, since the Tangem 2.0 is secured by the card even others know my seed. What if, they use my seed recover on another wallet that no need card to do the transactions??
You can disable service/Wifi while generating the seed, but you need to turn it back on to activate the card and the backups which takes place right after the seed phrase screen. And no. Only a handful one wallet can be connected to three cards at a time. If you want to use multiple wallets in the Tangem app, you need to buy 2 sets of cards
Thx bro, That means I have to use the wallet with a same seed forever, right? It differences to another wallet that If am sure my seed is safe or not, I still can re-generate a new wallet unlimited. Please help to clarify me again. I consider to buy between Trezor Safe 3 and Tangem 2.0. Thx a lof bro. @@cyberscrilla
Nice video Cyber Scrilla! I just got my Tangem Wallet 2.0 today but I'm kind of worried about it! The box wasn't sealed properly so I was able to slide it open without ripping the safety labels. How do I know if its safe to use the wallet? Or should I reach out to Tangem?
Hey Gairo! When you scan your cards using the Tangem app, it verifies the cards and firmware are authentic and not tampered with. BUT. I would definitely contact Tangem about this. Not worth risking it. Did you order directly from Tangem? - Alex
@@cyberscrilla I did contact Tangem. They got back to me and sent the following response: "We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience, but rest assured, there is absolutely no reason for alarm. Our logistics team has informed us that new orders are currently undergoing customs checks. The package you received might have been opened by customs officials in your country as part of their clearance procedure. They select packages at random for inspection."
The box comes plastic sealed. That’s was likely when they tried using tape and it didn’t seal right. It didn’t affect security whatsoever. It was simply a packaging issue. That’s old news though
Yes, but just know you can only use a maximum of 3 cards per private key. But if you’re transferring your funds to three new cards (a new wallet), you can do that no problem. - Alex
Bit of a random question: but does Tangem or ANY cold wallet allow you to SELECT your seed phrase? As in, I want a seed phrase that I can more readily remember in my brain wallet. Could I generate a 12 word seed phrase like “The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog” so that I don’t need to carry anything physical (Tangem card, a USB stick, Trazor thing) across a border?
@@cyberscrilla but… why is that? Why doesn’t anyone allow me to create my own seed phrase? Mind you, that raises another question: is there any chance that a random seed phrase could be a duplicate of one already in existence? Is there a check at creation time to see if it already exists? (Thanks for answering all my lame questions 😃 )
@@MarkOfBitcoin you can create your own seed phrase. But it’s safer to randomly generate a seed phrase. And most of the trusted cold wallets on the market randomly generate it for you. As far as generating the same seed phrase-it’s not impossible, but it is basically a 0% chance as the number of combinations is insane.
Actually your question goes to the heart of the original design philosophy of the Tangem. The original design does not generate a seed phrase. It generates your private key and stores it on the card and that's it. You then make up any password you like, which you can remember, to access your card and move your crypto. The obsession with seed phrases that you hear is because in the bad old days, you had no choice but to write down your seed phrase, which of course is incredibly risky, and the sheep have been programmed to believe that it is somehow necessary, but it isn't.
@@_FightForYourFreedom_ interesting. But I guess the negative of the Tangem is that you have a physical card that can be intercepted, or confiscated. With a seed phrase, you can cross a border with your brain wallet.
Just wondering if by supported, it also means that they can be purchased through the wallet or is it in some cases it just means it can be stored in the wallet? How do we know which network to send to? for example I am holding DOT on an exhange and on the tangum website it shows that it supports 3 networks.
Supported means you can hold it and manage it in Tangem. It doesn’t necessarily mean you can buy or sell it directly in Tangem. And you’d either have to ask your exchange or look for withdrawal or transfer options on the exchange platform. The withdrawal process usually requires selecting a network. Review the available options and see if there's information about the underlying blockchain. Also, your public address might give you some clues as to which network your DOT is stored on, as different networks use different formats for public addresses. For example, Ethereum addresses start with “0x”
@@cyberscrilla thank you so much for answering so fast! 🙏 if I already have a current hot wallet and about to set up my Tangem, is it safer to create a whole new wallet on tangem and transfer the crypto on the hot wallet (MetaMask) to the exchange again and from there to the cold wallet? Or import the metamask to Tangem? Which one is safer?
@diazin.777 Create a new seed phrase using Tangem and transfer your crypto from metamask to Tangem. No need to send crypto back to an exchange before sending it to Tangem. Again, importing a hot wallet seed phrase into a cold wallet (and vice versa) is pointless, as it’s still a hot wallet because the seed phrase has been exposed to the software.
@ross4061 No. you would connect Tangem to MetaMask using the wallet connect feature in the Tangem app. MetaMask won’t matter as much at that point because your private is stored on Tangem. Honestly, I’ve never tried connecting Tangem to MetaMask so I’m not sure if that works even.
They’re both exactly the same in terms of security and the 2.0 will eventually replace the 1.0 completely. If you want to have a seed phrase, go with the 2.0 as the 1.0 doesn’t support seed phrases. - Alex
Thanks for this. I purchased through your link but I am concerned that my Tangem is being shipped from Slovenia. Please advise why as I don’t want a fake Tangem. I used your link to make the purchase.
It’s not fake. Tangem has multiple warehouses all over the world. It will ship from wherever is most convenient based on your location. Also, the Tangem app wouldn’t let you setup a fake card as it verifies firmware upon setup. Enjoy!
sily question, isnt the app the vulnerable part, being open source, if the app was modified couldnt the modified app read the secure chips on the cards and send the information somewhere.
You'd have to download a fake version of the app. And even then, I'm not sure if it could extract your private key. BUT, as long as you download the official Tangem app you don't have to worry about that happening - Alex
The card only gives out the generated key once during the setup process, to write the 1-2 backup cards. That is why you can't make further copies down the line. So as long as you don't use a modified software during the setup process, the keys can't leave the card.
Do you have or know a good education source for newbies to crypto. For me. Everything off the exchange is so confusing to me. And it's hard to learn from video to video. A curriculum that builds on one factor over another factor. Thanks!
Sorry to ask so many questions, but I have a soft spot for Trezor Safe 3. Out of Trezor, Tangem and Keystore Pro, which would you get? Going to get something today using your link
Depends as they are all different. Tangem = most user friendly Trezor Safe 3 = still beginner friendly with more security features than Tangem Keystone 3 Pro = least user friendly with most security features including optional air gap mode
If you want user friendliness. Go with the Safe 3 (It’s still VERY secure) If you want additional security features like the ability to import multiple seed phrases at once and use it in air gap mode, go with Keystone. Remember, hardware wallets all do the same thing at the end of the day. So it just depends on what features you want. Of course, make sure the wallet supports the coins you hold before buying.
I can't believe no one else is asking about this: If you use your primary card to do transactions, and your crypto is stored on the card, how does your backup cards update the information?
Crypto is not stored on the card (or in wallets). It’s stored on the blockchain. Wallets (the cards) hold your private key, which is associated with your unique blockchain addresses. So if you transact, that is reflected on the blockchain and thus any wallet that uses your private key.
Since the new tangem has the seed phrase option, can you use only one card for one wallet? And then use the other(supposed backup) as a new wallet? Therefore you have 2 completely different wallets?
Awesome! If you have more questions or just want to stay up to date, I also have a Tangem dedicated UA-cam channel if you’re interested: youtube.com/@tangemanswers
No one can “hack into it”. It’s only displayed long enough for you to write it down, then it’s erased from the device. 2 million wallets sold not a single one hacked 👍
I just addressed this concern. Check out the pinned comment on this video to see what Tangem said about it. Let me know if you have any other questions. - Alex
Hi CS, I also just received my tangem card 2.0 and seals were open, I don't know if the customs did it or if it happened during transit.. How could I check and verify if these cards are genuine and not exchanged and replaced for duplicate cards...? Please do reply and help me, as I am very paranoid now..
@@cyberscrilla So this is like passphrase, right, and you can have infinity of them. I also want to ask if I can have multiple btc wallets for example, your video says no, but someone else says yes, would like a clarification on this. You attend to your viewers' comments. Truly appreciate this.
No, it has always generated a unique private key. The difference is you can choose to generate and know your seed phase AND import a seed phrase from another wallet. This allows you to recover your wallet even if you lose all your cards. Whereas with the old cards if you lose them, you lose access to your crypto forever. Private keys and seed phrase, although closely related, are different. Besides that and the design, everything else remains the same. - Alex
Thank you for all of the information you provide. I am concerned about purchasing a wallet made in communist China. I understand that Trevor is manufactured in the Czech Republic but should there be a concern that the manufacturer could steal all your crypto if for whatever reason the decide to close up shop?
No concern here. Tangem uses the same secure chip that’s trusted in billions of payment cards around the world. And this chip is what secures your wallet’s private key-the key to all your crypto.
You can use multiple sets of Tangem cards. But if you buy the 2 or 3 pack it’s considered 1 wallet as they all share the same private key. And there’s no option to switch in the app. You’d basically have to disconnect one wallet and then scan your other cards to connect. - Alex
Hello Sir, I have a Question If I get two different Tangem Wallets 1. Shib Brand Tangem and another 2. Regular Black Tangem Card and more new Tangem 2.0 Can I Use both Cards in 1 Mobile Application ? Or on 1 Mobile Device
Yes you can. There’s a wallet icon in the top left corner of the app. If you select “add new wallet” you can add multiple wallets. Then you can switch between your two wallets. - Alex
Could you clarify please? If you use the seed phrase method, it generates a 12 word seed phrase (not 24). I believe there’s an option to view your seed phrase by scanning the card and putting in your access code if you need to see it after the initial setup. Sorry if I didn’t answer your question. - Alex
Am i right in thinking... the only risk is when the app shows you your seed pharse on sign up... after that point, there is no way anyone can get access to your wallet even if you spend all day looking at the wallet on your app ? As the card must be used to do any transaction ? Would I have that correct ?
@@_FightForYourFreedom_ you need to record your seed phrase. There’s no way around it. Not your keys, not your crypto. Keep it in a safe. Preferably use a metal seed storage plate
@@cyberscrilla thanks for your answer. Nice to know that i can restore my wallet on a usb cold wallet for example if i lose all my cards or problem with my cards🙂👍
What if I bought a new cheap phone. Install the app and setup the cards with a seed phrase generated. Once all complete, backed up, activated etc. Then destroy that phone, then reinstall the app on my actual phone, using my login created by the destroyed phone. Would that stop any possibility for the seed phrase to compromised? Thanks your videos have been very helpful.
No, because the vulnerability is when you initially generate the seed phrase on the app. Now MAYBE you can generate the seed phrase while NOT connected to the internet or your service provider and that would help theoretically. I’ll test this once I receive my new cards. The app doesn’t store the seed phrase, your card does, so that’s the good thing. To be honest, as long as your phone doesn’t have malware (someone’s not watching your every move), you’ll likely be okay. And thanks for watching James! - Alex
Ok that sounds good, after install switch off wifi and and data. Then generate. Would be interesting to find out how you get on. I guess some of us (especially me) wouldn't know if we had malware on our phones, that's possibly an obstacle I'll need to research. Thank you again, I'm starting to understand.
You don't have to destroy the phone. Just factory reset one, install just the app, set it up and then factory reset it again. Unless you plan to have millions on the wallet, but then i would buy a fully airgapped one, like the keystone.
Is there any way to stake Solana while storing it on the wallet? I cannot figure this out and feel stuck with it on a ledger even though I’d like to move it.
Soon you will be able to stake directly from the Tangem app. However, Tangem does support WalletConnect, so it’s possible you can stake with it using a separate defi platform. How do you currently stake? - Alex
I got my new Tangem wallet in the mail yesterday, and it was opened before I got it. I was so pissed off. Do they have customer service because I have to send it back and get a new one now.

@@nicolerichards3405 so sorry, i know Tangem will take care of you. One thing to note is that when setting up your cards the Tangem app doe’s verify that the chip and firmware are authentic and safe to use. But receiving an open box is unacceptable regardless. - Alex
@@Cryptony9 of course. And I would be bummed too. One thing to note is that when setting up your cards the Tangem app doe’s verify that the chip and firmware are authentic and safe to use. Still, I’d want an unopened box.
The same way you’d transfer to another wallet. 1. Copy the public address from your exchange account for the coin you want to send. 2. Using the Tangem app, select the crypto you want to send and hit send. 3. Paste your exchanges public address and select the amount of crypto you want to send. 4. Confirm the transaction using your Tangem card. 5. Depending on the exchange you use, you’ll have to convert your crypto to fiat. This is done by tapping your crypto, tap Sell, then choose Cash. From there you can transfer it to your bank account. If you want a visual of how to transfer out of the Tangem wallet, I show you in this video: Tangem Wallet 2.0 Review: The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly ua-cam.com/video/_eIX8icH1To/v-deo.html

False. How would Tangem steal your seed phrase? When a seed phrase is compromised, 99% of the time it's a user error-generally via a phishing scam. No need to spread misinformation. - Alex
Just so you are aware, I have purchased Tangem. But something that wasn’t mentioned and should have been… I had to pay 75.00$ of Duty in order to receive it. In the end, it has doubled the price for me here in Canada. I would have liked to know about that.

@@Lupsipupsi Strictly talking about seed phrases. If you hold BTC on your Ledger wallet (using one address) you can import it into Tangem along with any other crypto on your ledger device.

However, your crypto will remain secure as it’s stored on the blockchain (not in the wallet). - Alex

this is mine too. I suppose what we would have to do is use a card to transfer funds to a device with seed phrase on it before we lose or damage last card for this to happen

However, if you have crypto in your seedless wallet, you’ll need to transfer it temporarily to another cold wallet, hot wallet, or exchange. Once your new seed phrase wallet is set up, you can transfer the crypto back.
This is important because if you reset the seedless wallet while it still holds crypto, you’d lose access to it since there’s no private key to recover it.

And even if you get a new phone, you can still use the cards as normal. You’ll just need to scan them and enter your PIN code.
That said, if you get the 2.0, you can record and store your seed phrase. Then you can access your crypto using any wallet by simply importing your seed phrase, which is what I do.

This is epic. You can transfer to another wallet using a seed phrase from an old wallet. Thanks.
Yep, you can import a seed phrase from another cold wallet into Tangem 👍

@@sportindaveyg correct 👍
@@cyberscrilla What about seed phrases you used for online wallets, like Phantom, Metamask, or Coinbase wallet?
Random question 🙋♂️
Are all the cards 💳 linked to each other or can they be used separately? Let’s say 3 people can get one card each since you buying 3 cards in your order. I’m just curious if that’s possible.
No, they are linked. You need at least to cards to setup a wallet. So technically if you buy 2 two packs, you could setup two separate wallets.
@cyberscrilla
Can u use tangem 2.0 with a computer (MacBook pro) instead of a mobile phone? Thanks
No, simply because you need an NFC capable phone to scan the cards. So a phone is required. But it’s extremely secure if that’s what you’re worried about.
- Alex
Theres only one wallet option on the website... is this the bew 2.0 version ? Thanks
Yes, the 2.0 replaced the old one :)
Do you keep one card in your physical wallet? Will it be ruined by other credit cards/debit cards?
No way. Think of it as a savings account. That said, you could keep it in your wallet without any issues. It’s practically indestructible and not affected by other cards, X ray machines, etc.
- Alex
Just perfect! Everything works as expected, thank you so much.
Happy to hear that!
Thanks for the great content on this wallet!!
Quick question. If you do the 12 word seed phrase option are the cards still necessary?
Like you mentioned if the cards get lost you can still access your crypto since you have the seed phrase.
Does that question make sense?
Yes and no. If you want to use Tangem to approve transactions and manage your crypto, you need the cards.
To your point, if you have another brand hardware wallet, you can import your 12 word seed phrase into it and use that wallet as well.
@@cyberscrilla thank you for the clarity
Thanks for the fast Feedback CS , I did a Factory reset on my New Tangem Wallet 2.0,
they are ready for use.
seems like the box security tape is (very thin) and can easily rip on its own just with the Shipping ,
iam sure Tangem is aware of the matter and will improve the quality of security tape.
Glad to hear it worked out! And I think you’re right. I’m sure future shipments will use a better tape/plastic wrap!
Thx bro for your content. I wonder when we generate the seed phrases, do we need to turn on airplane mode since the phrase show up on phome that might be hacked?? And can we reset factory the card and regenerate a new wallet to use while the previous still exist on app? Thx again bro
One more question, since the Tangem 2.0 is secured by the card even others know my seed. What if, they use my seed recover on another wallet that no need card to do the transactions??
You can disable service/Wifi while generating the seed, but you need to turn it back on to activate the card and the backups which takes place right after the seed phrase screen.
And no. Only a handful one wallet can be connected to three cards at a time. If you want to use multiple wallets in the Tangem app, you need to buy 2 sets of cards

Nice video Cyber Scrilla! I just got my Tangem Wallet 2.0 today but I'm kind of worried about it! The box wasn't sealed properly so I was able to slide it open without ripping the safety labels. How do I know if its safe to use the wallet? Or should I reach out to Tangem?
Hey Gairo! When you scan your cards using the Tangem app, it verifies the cards and firmware are authentic and not tampered with.
BUT. I would definitely contact Tangem about this. Not worth risking it.
Did you order directly from Tangem?
- Alex
Mine came the same way. Have not set it up yet@@cyberscrilla
@@cyberscrilla I did contact Tangem. They got back to me and sent the following response: "We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience, but rest assured, there is absolutely no reason for alarm.
Our logistics team has informed us that new orders are currently undergoing customs checks. The package you received might have been opened by customs officials in your country as part of their clearance procedure. They select packages at random for inspection."
I saw the review of tangem delivery pack is already open and delivery to customer
The box comes plastic sealed. That’s was likely when they tried using tape and it didn’t seal right. It didn’t affect security whatsoever. It was simply a packaging issue. That’s old news though
if i want a longer seed phrase than 12, where should i create that to import into Tangem?
You can create a 24 word seed phrase using Tangem. No need to do it somewhere else.
Silly question: does the address I am sending funds to change each time or each few times like ledger or does it stay the same with Tangem?
I’m assuming you’re talking about BTC? It stays the same. But soon you will be able to have multiple addresses :)

@@cyberscrilla thank you sir
Bit of a random question: but does Tangem or ANY cold wallet allow you to SELECT your seed phrase? As in, I want a seed phrase that I can more readily remember in my brain wallet. Could I generate a 12 word seed phrase like “The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog” so that I don’t need to carry anything physical (Tangem card, a USB stick, Trazor thing) across a border?
No. Most seed phrases/wallets are randomly generated from a specific list of 2048 words.
@@cyberscrilla but… why is that? Why doesn’t anyone allow me to create my own seed phrase? Mind you, that raises another question: is there any chance that a random seed phrase could be a duplicate of one already in existence? Is there a check at creation time to see if it already exists? (Thanks for answering all my lame questions 😃 )
@@MarkOfBitcoin you can create your own seed phrase. But it’s safer to randomly generate a seed phrase.
And most of the trusted cold wallets on the market randomly generate it for you.
As far as generating the same seed phrase-it’s not impossible, but it is basically a 0% chance as the number of combinations is insane.
Actually your question goes to the heart of the original design philosophy of the Tangem. The original design does not generate a seed phrase. It generates your private key and stores it on the card and that's it. You then make up any password you like, which you can remember, to access your card and move your crypto. The obsession with seed phrases that you hear is because in the bad old days, you had no choice but to write down your seed phrase, which of course is incredibly risky, and the sheep have been programmed to believe that it is somehow necessary, but it isn't.
@@_FightForYourFreedom_ interesting. But I guess the negative of the Tangem is that you have a physical card that can be intercepted, or confiscated. With a seed phrase, you can cross a border with your brain wallet.
Without being open source, what happens if Tangem goes out of business and you've lost your card?
The app is open source so it can be recreated.
Assuming you have your seed phrase, you can import it into any wallet, not just Tangem.
Just wondering if by supported, it also means that they can be purchased through the wallet or is it in some cases it just means it can be stored in the wallet?
How do we know which network to send to? for example I am holding DOT on an exhange and on the tangum website it shows that it supports 3 networks.
Supported means you can hold it and manage it in Tangem. It doesn’t necessarily mean you can buy or sell it directly in Tangem.
And you’d either have to ask your exchange or look for withdrawal or transfer options on the exchange platform.
The withdrawal process usually requires selecting a network. Review the available options and see if there's information about the underlying blockchain.
Also, your public address might give you some clues as to which network your DOT is stored on, as different networks use different formats for public addresses.
For example, Ethereum addresses start with “0x”
Hi, is it safer to not use a seed phrase? Isn't the tangem app connected to internet? Wouldnt that be a risk?
I prefer to use a seed phrase. The phrase is not stored on the app. It is generated, displayed so you can record it, then it’s gone.
@@cyberscrilla thank you so much for answering so fast! 🙏 if I already have a current hot wallet and about to set up my Tangem, is it safer to create a whole new wallet on tangem and transfer the crypto on the hot wallet (MetaMask) to the exchange again and from there to the cold wallet? Or import the metamask to Tangem? Which one is safer?
@diazin.777 Create a new seed phrase using Tangem and transfer your crypto from metamask to Tangem. No need to send crypto back to an exchange before sending it to Tangem.
Again, importing a hot wallet seed phrase into a cold wallet (and vice versa) is pointless, as it’s still a hot wallet because the seed phrase has been exposed to the software.
@@cyberscrilla You are a great source of help for so many people in this space. Thank you for the promo code as well ❤️

If I purchase a tangum can I enter my trust wallet seed phrase or do I have to transfer everything hing over?
Sure you can do that. But that would defeat the purpose of the cold wallet. It’d be best to create a new seed phrase and transfer assets over.

What about staking? Will this wallet secure cryptos that are staked on Metamask etc?
Well you’d have to transfer your crypto to Tangem then stake with MetaMask. Otherwise it’s not anymore secure
@@cyberscrilla I thought so. Does that mean once you set up Tangem you must set a brand new Metamask and ditch the old one?
@@cyberscrilla I going to buy 3 pack using your referral code and give them a try
@@cyberscrilla I'd buy the Keystore but for some reason they don't ship to New Zealand. Bummer!
@ross4061 No. you would connect Tangem to MetaMask using the wallet connect feature in the Tangem app.
MetaMask won’t matter as much at that point because your private is stored on Tangem.
Honestly, I’ve never tried connecting Tangem to MetaMask so I’m not sure if that works even.
Hi Which would be safer, Tangem 1.0 or Tangem 2.0?
They’re both exactly the same in terms of security and the 2.0 will eventually replace the 1.0 completely.
If you want to have a seed phrase, go with the 2.0 as the 1.0 doesn’t support seed phrases.
- Alex
Thanks for this. I purchased through your link but I am concerned that my Tangem is being shipped from Slovenia. Please advise why as I don’t want a fake Tangem. I used your link to make the purchase.
It’s not fake. Tangem has multiple warehouses all over the world. It will ship from wherever is most convenient based on your location.
Also, the Tangem app wouldn’t let you setup a fake card as it verifies firmware upon setup.
Enjoy!
Hello, is there any chance for Tangem to incorporate the stake feature in near future? Thanks in advance
Yes. It should be live very soon
@@cyberscrilla 👍👍👍🕺🏻
sily question, isnt the app the vulnerable part, being open source, if the app was modified couldnt the modified app read the secure chips on the cards and send the information somewhere.
You'd have to download a fake version of the app. And even then, I'm not sure if it could extract your private key.
BUT, as long as you download the official Tangem app you don't have to worry about that happening
- Alex
The card only gives out the generated key once during the setup process, to write the 1-2 backup cards. That is why you can't make further copies down the line. So as long as you don't use a modified software during the setup process, the keys can't leave the card.
Do you have or know a good education source for newbies to crypto. For me. Everything off the exchange is so confusing to me. And it's hard to learn from video to video. A curriculum that builds on one factor over another factor. Thanks!
Sorry to ask so many questions, but I have a soft spot for Trezor Safe 3. Out of Trezor, Tangem and Keystore Pro, which would you get? Going to get something today using your link
Depends as they are all different.
Tangem = most user friendly
Trezor Safe 3 = still beginner friendly with more security features than Tangem
Keystone 3 Pro = least user friendly with most security features including optional air gap mode
Hey, have you bought rhe new wallet. I amalso kind of split between Trezor safe 3 and Keystone 3 pro
If you want user friendliness. Go with the Safe 3 (It’s still VERY secure)
If you want additional security features like the ability to import multiple seed phrases at once and use it in air gap mode, go with Keystone.
Remember, hardware wallets all do the same thing at the end of the day.
So it just depends on what features you want. Of course, make sure the wallet supports the coins you hold before buying.
I can't believe no one else is asking about this:
If you use your primary card to do transactions, and your crypto is stored on the card, how does your backup cards update the information?
Crypto is not stored on the card (or in wallets). It’s stored on the blockchain. Wallets (the cards) hold your private key, which is associated with your unique blockchain addresses.
So if you transact, that is reflected on the blockchain and thus any wallet that uses your private key.
@@cyberscrilla that there just answered one of my questions. Thank you Sir.

How goes payment sistem with tangem visa. Is that all in one u have to buy it separated.

Does Tangem offer different colors/designs in case you wanted to spread assets across multiple wallets and easily know which wallet is which?
Yes they offer some custom branded ones. White versions are coming out soon too!
Since the new tangem has the seed phrase option, can you use only one card for one wallet? And then use the other(supposed backup) as a new wallet? Therefore you have 2 completely different wallets?
Nope. You need at least 2 cards to create a wallet. So if you buy a 3 pack but only use 2 cards that extra card would go to waste.

How to use with laptop?
You can’t use Tangem with a laptop since you have to use it with an NFC equipped device.
Ledger has hidden wallet, does Tangem have it? Can we create a hidden wallet?
No, there’s no hidden wallet option. But you can create an access code 👍
@@cyberscrilla So this is like passphrase, right, and you can have infinity of them. I also want to ask if I can have multiple btc wallets for example, your video says no, but someone else says yes, would like a clarification on this. You attend to your viewers' comments. Truly appreciate this.
Is it safe to buy your tangem wallet on Amazon or ebay?
You don’t get the 10% discount. In general, I don’t recommend buying a wallet on Amazon and especially not on eBay.
So the difference with the old Tangem is that with 2.0 you can create your own private key? Besides this, has it added more security to the TAngem2.0?
No, it has always generated a unique private key.
The difference is you can choose to generate and know your seed phase AND import a seed phrase from another wallet.
This allows you to recover your wallet even if you lose all your cards. Whereas with the old cards if you lose them, you lose access to your crypto forever.
Private keys and seed phrase, although closely related, are different.
Besides that and the design, everything else remains the same.

You can use multiple sets of Tangem cards. But if you buy the 2 or 3 pack it’s considered 1 wallet as they all share the same private key.

Then you can switch between your two wallets.
- Alex
how does the seed phrase work when you are trying to view the 24 words again and again after setup? thanks
Could you clarify please?
If you use the seed phrase method, it generates a 12 word seed phrase (not 24).
I believe there’s an option to view your seed phrase by scanning the card and putting in your access code if you need to see it after the initial setup.
Sorry if I didn’t answer your question.
- Alex
Am i right in thinking... the only risk is when the app shows you your seed pharse on sign up... after that point, there is no way anyone can get access to your wallet even if you spend all day looking at the wallet on your app ?

You are correct!
Also if you wrote down the seed phrase anywhere, the risk that somebody finds it.

Would that stop any possibility for the seed phrase to compromised?
Thanks your videos have been very helpful.
No, because the vulnerability is when you initially generate the seed phrase on the app.
Now MAYBE you can generate the seed phrase while NOT connected to the internet or your service provider and that would help theoretically. I’ll test this once I receive my new cards.
The app doesn’t store the seed phrase, your card does, so that’s the good thing.
To be honest, as long as your phone doesn’t have malware (someone’s not watching your every move), you’ll likely be okay.
And thanks for watching James!

Thank you again, I'm starting to understand.
You don't have to destroy the phone. Just factory reset one, install just the app, set it up and then factory reset it again. Unless you plan to have millions on the wallet, but then i would buy a fully airgapped one, like the keystone.
Is there any way to stake Solana while storing it on the wallet? I cannot figure this out and feel stuck with it on a ledger even though I’d like to move it.

The same way you’d transfer to another wallet.
1. Copy the public address from your exchange account for the coin you want to send.
2. Using the Tangem app, select the crypto you want to send and hit send.
3. Paste your exchanges public address and select the amount of crypto you want to send.
4. Confirm the transaction using your Tangem card.
5. Depending on the exchange you use, you’ll have to convert your crypto to fiat. This is done by tapping your crypto, tap Sell, then choose Cash.
From there you can transfer it to your bank account.

@@cyberscrilla well it is true for anyone who doesn’t choose that option. They’ll have to pick a time around the 25yr mark to send it elsewhere
Trezor has a two year warranty, that doesn't mean you'll lose your crypto in two years.
@@anticharlatan5823 of course not. Crypto isn’t stored on the device.
A whole bunch of dapps i can't open with that tangem crap wallet
In most cases, it’s a dapp problem. Even if Tangem is listed on a dapp but it doesn’t open, the dapp likely doesn’t support it yet.

The 2.0 Tangem wallet, can I transfer my wallet from a Nano x? (Save fees) Thanks
You can import your Nano X seed phrase into the new Tangem wallet, yes!

@@cyberscrilla Thank You, Now I need to find a DIY video. Thanks!
Not sure it works smoothly with all coins and BTC (multiple adresses)?
@@Lupsipupsi Strictly talking about seed phrases. If you hold BTC on your Ledger wallet (using one address) you can import it into Tangem along with any other crypto on your ledger device.
If Tangem doesn’t support a coin that you hold on Ledger for example, then you won’t be able to manage it using Tangem.
However, your crypto will remain secure as it’s stored on the blockchain (not in the wallet).

How do you get it off blockchain if it didn’t go on the tandem wallet
How does it use a seed phrase from say a Keystone Pro 3 wallet. I have just set up a Pro 3 but it doesn't have crypto in it yet. Could I use the Pro 3 phrase?
You can import a seed phrase consisting of 12, 15, 18, 21, or 24 words. So if you’re KP3 is a 24 word phrase (without the optional 25 with phrase, you can import it into Tangem
