# Using the smartcard wallet |
||||
|
||||
## Requirements |
||||
|
||||
* A USB smartcard reader |
||||
* A keycard that supports the status app |
||||
|
||||
## Usage |
||||
|
||||
1. Start `geth` with the `console` command |
||||
2. Check the card's URL by checking `personal.listWallets`: |
||||
|
||||
``` |
||||
listWallets: [{ |
||||
status: "Online, can derive public keys", |
||||
url: "pcsc://a4d73015" |
||||
}] |
||||
``` |
||||
|
||||
3. Open the wallet, you will be prompted for your pairing password, then PIN: |
||||
|
||||
``` |
||||
personal.openWallet("pcsc://a4d73015") |
||||
``` |
||||
|
||||
4. Check that creation was successful by typing e.g. `personal`. Then use it like a regular wallet. |
||||
|
||||
## Known issues |
||||
|
||||
* Starting geth with a valid card seems to make firefox crash |
