Review on BC Vault by Benaiah A. Akinlade
BC Vault (Crypto at your palm)
BC Vault is a hardware wallet for secure storage of many cryptocurrencies. One of the first noticeable things about the wallet is its very good build quality. The packaging of the device is solid so it is impossible to break into the device without causing noticeable damage.
More than 2000 independent wallets can be created with the vault wallet, and each of them can be locked with different passwords and PINs.
If a user knows some trusted people who are also into holding cryptocurrency for long term, then the user can all share global login credentials, and then have their own wallets secured with encryption with private passwords and PINs.
