![]() If you bought the full starter’s kit the better: you will have NOOBs on your micro-SD with the possibility to install the Raspbian OS offline out of the box using your Raspberry Pi. Next I went ahead and installed the Raspbian OS on the micro-SD card – it’ s fairly straight forward you can go to the Raspberry Pi website, click Downloads and there you have all you’ll ever need to get started including an easy installation guide. The shipping was FREE by the way and my order was delivered in 2 days (I ordered on Monday evening last week and received the kit on Wednesday morning). PRICE? Around $68 in my case! I also separately bought a micro-SD card with an adapter for around $8 (8GB, class 10) (you can go for the full starter's kit that also gives you a pre-installed NOOBs - an easy operating system installation wizard for beginners - micro-SD card alongside the Raspberry Pi, case and power supply.)

You only need to read the rest of the way and you’ll be fine.įirst things first! In my case, I went for the affordable mini-PC Raspberry Pi. Rest assured! You don’t need to be a tech expert – I for one am definitely NOT – creating a cold storage is as easy as 1, 2, 3. I wish I could figure out is how Electrum generated the list of addresses I got the very first time I created a wallet with the Ledger, because it was seemingly from a random key.If you are fed up with all the waiting time nonsense for a hardware wallet - because of the massive volume as of late, to get a Ledger Nano S you have to wait till September, to get a Trezor you have to wait till August OR go for a premium price – and you also like to take matters into your own hands, then it is time to think outside of the box and try out a good alternative: build a cold storage wallet for Bitcoin and Litecoin by YOURSELF! I can see that initial mbtc in the address I sent to when I open the wallet file, but the private key it used apparently isn't on the ledger anywhere. The address I sent the coin to initially is a legacy address, and it generated a whole list of addresses from something. ![]() I connected the Ledger again and went through the process of creating a new Electrum wallet with it, and it consistently generates the same addresses, and the same that I get when I use the Chrome wallet app on the legacy chain. I didn't realize that you can flip what chain the Ledger Chrome app is looking at). I created the wallet file in Electrum, sent a couple mbtc to the first address, opened the Ledger wallet app, saw nothing (it was on segwit chain, so understandable there. I haven't reset or re-seeded the Ledger at all.
