How Does It Work?

As a small single-purpose computer, hardware wallets like the Prokey Optimum are designed to securely store private keys from both online and offline risks by pooling all transaction confirmations onto the device. By that, you can always confirm on the screen for right addresses, amounts, and fees before any transaction is made.

Though confirmations are pooled onto the device itself, it still needs a larger interface to enable users to manage and execute a variable of other functions and features. Prokey Wallet is a WebUSB-enabled browser interface for the Prokey Optimum. Through the Wallet, a user can set up devices, manage cryptocurrency assets, make transfers to services or friends, and much more. The Prokey Wallet can also be paired and used with other wallets.
