Oesterreichische Staatsdruckerei (OeSD), a two-centuries older passport printing firm of Austria is launching a hardware crypto wallet dubbed Chainlock. The firm is popular for making secure passports and identity solutions. The company started with traditional high-tech paper printing in the early 1800s.

This device belongs to the YOUNIQX Identity, a subsidiary of this Austrian printing house. This hardware crypto wallet focuses on the issues related to online wallet hackings. A 100 % offline wallet will come with a patent-applied private key generation.

This will occur in a highly-secure dominion where any outsider cannot view these keys. Even the employees of YOUNIQX and OeSD will not have any access to the keys.

This wallet is also functional via an app and is resistant to any alien access over the internet, WiFi, etc. Additionally, malware like CryptoLocker will not have any access to get the key in this device. The size of the Chainlock resembles a credit card. It is made up of silver plastic that is water and heatproof.

Some of the fraud-fighting features of Chainlock are similar to that of new forms of passports or fiat currency. The wallet price is €59.99 (around $67) that includes the VAT. For now, it only supports bitcoin and other ethereum options.

Recently, the crypto wallet Abra made some changes for its US users. The company will migrate all digital currencies other than BTC, ETH, LTC, and BCH to a native hosted wallet solution.
