I don't think Trezor supports that and it's the only way I want to handle Bitcoin. I don't really see how it's relevant to these discussions. Finances aren't close to the top thing on my mind right now. There are more pressing issues like the escalating attacks from Copperhead.

Tell me how to set up PayNym or something else with Trezor rather than a static address and I'll do it. Keep in mind that someone can make small donations ending up in the same pool of money. I'm not really sure how avoiding the static address can be a viable approach to privacy.

You got a passphrase on that Trezor?

I use the passphrase feature. What I like about the current way of doing donations is that there are no moving parts. I don't need to maintain another service or worry about it being compromised. Doing it this way gives me peace of mind about the donations being safe and secure.

Ok, great. You can import that seed and passphrase directly into Samourai. Your PayNym is deterministically generated from the seed. Apk download here. samouraiwallet.com/download/lates code.samourai.io/wallet/samoura

I don't want to give my seed / passphrase to anything but the Trezor though. I'm always careful to enter the passphrase only on the Trezor itself rather than my phone. My main concern is the security of the money.

Ok. Each to their own. I don’t like putting my seed on a device with no secure element and then typing a passphrase into a computer or, on that very same device.

I'd prefer to have a hardware wallet making good use of a secure element but I haven't found an alternative preserving other important properties. I don't agree with the Trezor devs dislike of secure elements. No ARM SoC has open hardware / firmware anyway.

If Android's StrongBox keystore supported secp256k1, the secure element could be used to store the seed, but it would have to be imported rather than generated on it to allow backing up the seed. If the device was compromised, it would only be protecting the seed itself though.

Protected confirmation exists but doesn't have any way to communicate what you're confirming or even that you're confirming something with it. Just stops the OS from using the key without someone physically pressing the power button. Not really particularly helpful in practice.
