We know you're gonna love this one.
Seeing as Monero is the ultimate stealth currency, it deserves a secure way to store and spend your coins from a completely airgapped device. As a privacy & security focused project, the ANONERO team has identified 3 issues with existing options:
- Centralization: Dependence on a small group of hardware wallet companies that can drop Monero support on a whim.
- Security: Crypto-specific devices are easily identifible and can attract unwanted attention.
- Accessibility: Desktop cold-signing UX is cubersome and prohibitive to non-technical users.
Enter ANON + NERO: a DIY hardware wallet solution for Monero
Nothing screams to the world that you have crypto like owning a Trezor/Ledger device, so using 2 Android devices, one offline (ANON), one online (NERO), users can now create, sign, and broadcast airgapped transactions from their own DIY hardware wallet.
While a cold-signing feature currently exists on the CLI wallet, the UX isn't something most users will want to deal with. ANON + NERO leverages the power of the Uniform Resources (UR) standard to transmit Monero's relatively large payloads via animated QR codes.
We've also created the necessary UR types so that all Monero wallets using UR will be cross-compatible. That means ANON can be used in combination with NERO, or any other wallet that plans to implement UR support, such as Feather Wallet.
All you have to do is open up NERO and start spending as you would on a normal wallet. The app will then take you through the steps to export and import the necessary info in the correct sequence to complete the transaction.
All over QR, entirely airgapped. And they said it couldn't be done.

Thanks for your hard work. This is exactly what we need. I really don't trust hardware wallets.
Can someone repost the demo video on another site like odysee or peertube or even torrent? I can't see the the video without signing into telegram and I don't want to give my personal information (like emails) to any site that I don't use the app. Hopefully the source code can go on something like the Monero github so the source code can have more eyeballs and more confidence that the source matches the apk. There are anonymous contributors to Monero, so it must be possible to use something like github anonymously.
finally got odysee to work. updated link: https://odysee.com/ANONERO:3
Thanks. I can see it now. It seems it's been picked up by Monerotalk (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKrN-bnUvfw it should be on odsyee an hour later) . Anyone that wants to give a shout out for the project should join the viewers on stage segment of the show.
odysee wouldn't allow signups over tor, and peertube only gave 5MB of upload size. do you know of any more alternatives?
brighteon, rumble, bitchute?
@sigmanon @ANONERO those are all frankly garbage to put it bluntly.
@ANONERO @g2devi the max upload size for PeerTube varies by server I think
