* A USB smartcard reader
* A keycard that supports the status app
+## Preparing the smartcard
+
+ You can use status' [keycard-cli](https://github.com/status-im/keycard-cli) and you should get version 2.1 (**NOT** 2.1.1, this will be supported in a later update) of their [smartcard application](https://github.com/status-im/status-keycard/releases/download/2.1/keycard_v2.1.cap)
+
+ You also need to make sure that the PCSC daemon is running on your system.
+
+ Then, you can install the application to the card by typing:
+
+ ```
+ keycard install -a keycard_v2.1.cap
+ ```
+
+ Then you can initialize the application by typing:
+
+ ```
