Aihe: Re: [unSYSTEM] DarkWallet Whitepaper (Specs, details, features & inside dirt)
I have been for some time experimenting with yubico NEO key:

https://www.yubico.com/products/yubikey-hardware/yubikey-neo/

The key has both USB HID and NFC interfaces which means it can interface to a
PC and NFC enabled mobile phone. It is based on a smart card temper resistant
secure element that can be programed in JavaCard. Plus, it has a button that
can be used to approve transactions.

I have already implemented btc key generation and transaction signing functionality
protected by PIN. The functionality can be run on NEO but also on contact or
contact-less smart card based on the same SE. Working now on Android app.

So the scenarios described below by Bob are already possible if you chose to use
hardware token like NEO to secure the wallet keys.

Let me know if you need more details or would be interested to explore possibilities
of using it.

Cheers,
Ptr
