Using an Ether wallet
Once you have created a wallet, you can also receive and send Ether and ERC20 tokens
via MyEtherWallet (
myetherwallet.com)
. Sending and receiving Ether and ERC20 tokens
is done via
myetherwallet.com.
A private key stored on your BitBox gives you access in
the same way as it gives you access to your Bitcoin wallet. The private key stays
securely inside the BitBox and never enters MyEtherWallet. Phishing sites can NOT
access the BitBox because the MyEtherWallet URL is hardcoded in the BitBox firmware.
As a fallback option, a local copy of MyEtherWallet is provided at
digitalbitbox.com/mew
.
The backup on your micro SD card is used to recover both your Bitcoin and Ethereum
wallets.
Detailed instructions for setting up and using an Ether Wallet are here:
digitalbitbox.com/ethereum
To avoid having to install plugins, use either Chrome or Opera. Firefox or Safari only
work if a browser extension for Universal 2
nd
Factor (U2F) devices is installed.
First plug your configured BitBox into your USB port and navigate to
myetherwallet.com .
Click on “Send Ether & Tokens” from the header menu and select Digital BitBox.
