With the latest fuck up and drama around MEW i want to use another wallet comparable to the neo GUI or VIA wallet.
The official ETH / Mist wallet are trash as i had to learn trying to set it up yesterday.
What wallet do you guys use?

Another thing i'd like to add: I actually cant believe how bad the eth wallets are, i cant fathom how a currency that big has such trash wallets.
Crypto is still in its eraly stages thats for sure.

That's what I thought. Can someone explain for a retard like me with 60 iq what the connection between mew and my eth address which is logged on etherscan is? I mean, my address on ethescan publically confirms the amount of coins I hold. I access this address through my trezor, via mew.

Nothing ever leaves the blockchain. Your private keys allows you to move things within it, mew is an interface that helps you to generate a private key, it just helps you interact with the blockchain. Same with trezor, the coins aren't in the trezor. Does that make sense?

>> No.7525607

>>7525492
Yes I think so, what I'm confused about is mew & trezor. I'm assuming that the private key to my public Eth address is basically my trezor. Is that right? Cause there's no private key that shows when I view wallet info in mew, I guess because I'm accessing that via my trezor

>> No.7526023

>>7525607
Don't have a trezor so I can't tell you how it interacts with mew. But will you always have a public and private key for every address. I'm assuming you put your private key into trezor and it safeguards it? Try looking up trezor mew videos on youtube.

>> No.7526109

>>7526023
Yes I've just been reading, the Eth addresses on mew come from my trezor, which encrypts the private keys to them. I think that's the point of a hardware wallet, to keep the private keys encrypted offline. But I'm a retard so I have no real idea
