Yes. The Cryptnox Crypto Hardware Wallet – Dual-Card Set supports TAIKO by holding it as an ERC-20 token on Taiko Alethia or Ethereum after you add the network or token in the Cryptnox app. It does not ship with TAIKO enabled. Your 0x-prefixed EVM address is controlled by private keys generated inside the secure element and never exported. During setup, the seed is generated inside both cards, so the second card backs up the TAIKO address.
CRYPTNOX products are also available worldwide through our official Amazon stores.
TAIKO is not pre-programmed on the Cryptnox Crypto Hardware Wallet – Dual-Card Set. You add it once through the route that matches where you want to hold it: Taiko Alethia as an EVM network, or TAIKO as an ERC-20 token on Ethereum. In both cases, the account format is a 0x-prefixed 20-byte EVM address controlled by the card’s secure element.
The Taiko Alethia TAIKO token contract is 0xA9d23408b9bA935c230493c40C73824Df71A0975, listed in Taiko’s L2 deployment records. The Ethereum TAIKO token contract is 0x10dea67478c5F8C5E2D90e5E9B26dBe60c54d800, listed in Taiko’s L1 deployment records. Add only the contract that belongs to the network you intend to use for receiving and signing TAIKO.
Because this TAIKO route depends on adding the correct EVM network or token entry, the Cryptnox coin and blockchain support page is the right place to review broader asset coverage before you prepare the Taiko Alethia or Ethereum entry.
For TAIKO, the main setup decision is the network entry. Taiko Alethia TAIKO and Ethereum TAIKO are both ERC-20 entries, but they use different token contracts. The Cryptnox card protects the private key for the 0x EVM address; the network and token entry tell the app and Web3 tools which TAIKO contract to show and sign against.
Use Taiko Alethia when the TAIKO contract you are adding is 0xA9d23408b9bA935c230493c40C73824Df71A0975. This is the Taiko Alethia ERC-20 route. The receiving address uses the same EVM-style 0x format, but the token contract belongs to Taiko Alethia and should be added under that network.
Use Ethereum when the TAIKO contract you are adding is 0x10dea67478c5F8C5E2D90e5E9B26dBe60c54d800. This is the Ethereum ERC-20 route. Do not treat the two TAIKO contracts as interchangeable, even though the visible address format is the familiar 0x-prefixed EVM format on both networks.
A clean TAIKO setup has three matching parts: the selected network, the token contract for that network, and the EVM address controlled by the Cryptnox card. If any one of those details is wrong, the TAIKO entry you see in the app or Web3 flow may not be the TAIKO entry you intended to use.
For TAIKO on Taiko Alethia or Ethereum, the private key that controls the 0x-prefixed EVM address is generated inside the secure element and never leaves it. The card does not store a preloaded TAIKO account. Instead, it protects the key for the EVM address you use after adding the Taiko Alethia network or the Ethereum TAIKO token entry.
The chip platform used by the card includes an EAL6+-certified chip. That applies to the chip, while the TAIKO user benefit is the key flow: the private key for the address that can receive and sign TAIKO transactions is created inside the secure element and remains there during use.
The card is a contact and NFC smart card, which matters for TAIKO because the same protected EVM key can be used when you tap the card to a phone through the Cryptnox app or when a setup uses a contact smart-card reader. The interface changes how the card is presented to the device; it does not change the Taiko Alethia or Ethereum ERC-20 address format.
The Dual-Card Set ships uninitialised, so a new TAIKO address is not created before the buyer’s setup. During setup, the seed is generated inside both secure elements. That means the second card backs up the same EVM address that you use for TAIKO on Taiko Alethia or Ethereum.
For a TAIKO holder, the important detail is that the backup follows the key, not a single token screen. If you add TAIKO on Taiko Alethia and also add the Ethereum TAIKO token entry, the backed-up card relationship is still tied to the EVM address controlled by the seed created inside both cards.
There are no recovery words to write down by default for a new TAIKO setup with the Dual-Card Set. The default backup is the second smart card created with the primary card during initialisation. Importing a BIP39 seed with 12 or 24 words is available as an advanced option, but the default path for a fresh TAIKO address is generation inside both secure elements.
The product sold as the Cryptnox Crypto Hardware Wallet – Dual-Card Set is the TAIKO setup to choose when you want the backup card created at the same time as the primary card.
When you add TAIKO, the free Cryptnox app on iOS and Android is the mobile route for working with the smart card and the Taiko Alethia or Ethereum token entry. Unlocking for that mobile route uses the phone’s biometrics through the Cryptnox app; the card itself has no biometric sensor, and the private key for the TAIKO EVM address remains inside the secure element.
TAIKO buyers who use Web3 tools can connect through WalletConnect and work with MetaMask after the correct network or token entry is added. The practical TAIKO check is the network shown at the time of signing: Taiko Alethia TAIKO uses 0xA9d23408b9bA935c230493c40C73824Df71A0975, while Ethereum TAIKO uses 0x10dea67478c5F8C5E2D90e5E9B26dBe60c54d800.
For MetaMask use, the 0x address can look familiar on both networks, so the token contract and selected network carry the TAIKO-specific meaning. The card protects the key for the address; WalletConnect and MetaMask provide the Web3 route; the token entry determines whether you are viewing or signing for TAIKO on Taiko Alethia or Ethereum.
Before adding TAIKO, use the Cryptnox hardware wallet tutorials to prepare the card-and-app flow, then add Taiko Alethia or the Ethereum TAIKO ERC-20 contract once the Dual-Card Set has been initialised.
For a fresh TAIKO hardware wallet setup, buy the Cryptnox Crypto Hardware Wallet – Dual-Card Set. The set arrives uninitialised, which fits a new Taiko Alethia or Ethereum TAIKO address because the seed is created during your own setup inside both secure elements rather than being prepared before delivery.
The cards are made in Switzerland and the product is Swiss-engineered. For a TAIKO buyer, that origin detail sits alongside the actual custody flow: add the Taiko Alethia network or Ethereum ERC-20 token entry only after the cards have created the protected EVM key and its card-based backup.
If you are comparing TAIKO against other assets before choosing the card set, the broader Cryptnox crypto hardware wallet collection helps place this TAIKO ERC-20 setup next to other wallet use cases. The Taiko page is different because TAIKO is added manually and can be held on either Taiko Alethia or Ethereum.
For EVM-style comparisons, the Polygon hardware wallet page is useful because it also deals with 0x address expectations, while the Ronin hardware wallet page shows a different network-specific setup. If your portfolio also includes non-EVM assets, compare the TAIKO ERC-20 route with the Bitcoin hardware wallet page or the Tron hardware wallet page before deciding how you want each asset represented.
Set up the cards before adding TAIKO. The correct order is card initialisation, backup creation inside the second secure element, then the Taiko Alethia or Ethereum token entry. That order keeps key generation separate from the display step that makes TAIKO visible in the app or Web3 route.
The final check is simple: TAIKO on Taiko Alethia and TAIKO on Ethereum are both ERC-20 entries, but they are not the same contract entry. The Cryptnox card secures the EVM private key; your setup choice determines which TAIKO contract that address is being used with.
No. TAIKO does not ship enabled on the Cryptnox Crypto Hardware Wallet – Dual-Card Set. Add it once by adding Taiko Alethia as the network or by adding TAIKO as an ERC-20 token on Taiko Alethia or Ethereum. Use the contract address that matches the network you plan to use.
For Taiko Alethia, add TAIKO at 0xA9d23408b9bA935c230493c40C73824Df71A0975. For Ethereum, add TAIKO at 0x10dea67478c5F8C5E2D90e5E9B26dBe60c54d800. Both are ERC-20 token entries, but they belong to different networks and should not be treated as interchangeable.
TAIKO uses a 0x-prefixed 20-byte EVM address with Cryptnox on both Taiko Alethia and Ethereum. The private key controlling that address is generated inside the secure element and never leaves it, so the card protects the key behind the TAIKO address used for signing.
The Dual-Card Set is initialised as a pair. During setup, the seed is generated inside both secure elements, so the second card backs up the same EVM address used for TAIKO. That backup applies whether you add the Taiko Alethia TAIKO entry or the Ethereum TAIKO entry.
Yes. Cryptnox works with MetaMask and connects to Web3 through WalletConnect. For TAIKO, add the correct Taiko Alethia or Ethereum ERC-20 token entry first, then use the card-backed EVM address for signing. The private key remains inside the secure element of the card.
No. The card itself has no biometric sensor. When using the Cryptnox app for a TAIKO setup, unlocking uses the phone’s biometrics through the app on iOS or Android. The card’s role is to protect the private key for the 0x EVM address used with TAIKO.
No, and on this network that is not a limitation. The Cryptnox wallet uses one address per chain. HD address rotation comes from Bitcoin’s UTXO model and the BIP32/BIP44/BIP49/BIP84 derivation scheme; on account-model networks each account is a single fixed address by design, so the question does not apply in the same way. Cryptnox’s single-address-per-chain behaviour matches how these networks work.
At the cryptography layer the card derives keys along BIP32 and SLIP-10 paths, one path per supported chain, though that is not exposed in the app as multi-address management.
Yes. Cryptnox ships worldwide from the official CRYPTNOX store.
