What’s in the Box: KeepKey Hardware Wallet, Woven Nylon USB Cable, Recovery Sentence Backup Card.
We have the Keepkey wallet available from Shape Shift. We set the wallet up yesterday and took some unboxing pictures. We didn't get very far because we don't have a Shapeshift account. We did set one up to try out the wallet. From what we can tell, the wallet is mostly a screen with a button. You hold the button in for a few moments to select and move the wallet to its next screen. The Keepkey appears to only work with Shape Shift which is a trading platform that doesn't require KYC. It is limited in its coins, but supposedly has a nice variety of the most popular ones. We were not able to find Binance Chain or Pancake Swap Cake so we will need to continue our mission.
We do have a few Keepkeys in stock and ready to ship if this is the one you have been looking for.
If you want to try out Shape Shift but get a different hardware wallet, you can also use a Trezor brand wallet or a Ledger brand wallet with the platform.

The Keepkey wallet is made specifically for the Shape Shift network. We plan to try out the network and report back. It appears to offer a platform for holding and trading the main 50 coins with very low fees. If that is the case, we think it sounds like something that we should learn more about. We are always looking for the next big thing in Crypto and Defi. We have a couple of the Keepkey wallets in stock if you would like to give it a try. Just keep it in mind that it is for Shape Shift.
