Trezor: Bitcoin hardware wallet

Presented at 30C3 (2013), Dec. 29, 2013, 10 p.m. (30 minutes).

TREZOR is a hardware wallet for Bitcoin. We identified security of the end users' computer as one of the main problems that block Bitcoin mass adoption.

In order to fix this issue we designed a small easy-to-use device, which isolates the whole process from the computer which is prone to viruses and malware. In this talk we describe the main ideas and concepts we implemented and various challenges we had to cope with in the process.
