Abstract
Cryptocurrency transactions are increasing in prevalence. An important security practice for cryptocurrency transactions includes maintaining a crypto wallet with a private key for signing cryptocurrency transactions. Hardware based crypto wallets with a secure element retaining the private key are highly secure. This disclosure provides a hardware based crypto wallet with a small form factor and a display screen for entering recovery seed phrases. The security of the display screen is enhanced via a novel data entry mechanism that does not require a separate processor but can be handled directly by a processor of a secure element.
