 #COLDCARD Firmware Upgrade!

## SeedXOR
🌳XOR from Seed Vault (select other parts of the XOR from seeds in the vault). Restore geographically distributed SeedXOR without physically bringing the parts together
📸Seed XOR seeds can be scanned f/ SeedQR instead of typing them by hand

## Multisig
🔐Option for unsorted multisig [multi(…)]
📝JSON wrapped imports to provide custom `name` instead of the filename. Most useful for USB and NFC imports which have no filename
🔬Descriptor checksum is no longer required upon import
⛓️‍💥Create Airgapped (aka using CC as multisig coordinator) now works with BBQRs

## QR File Share
📁Same as NFC file share, allows user to share any file from SD card via QR/BBQr
  
## Optimizations and speed
🍄 #libsecp256k1 bumped to latest 0.5.0 (point multiplication algorithm speed up, etc)
🐇⚡️improvements in our signature grinding algo. Updated libsecp plus our optimizations yield 30% improvement in signing speed over previous version (15% in overall signing speed as signing is not the only part of it (validation, change checks, etc.))

## Security
🧐Improve side-channel protection: libsecp256k1 context randomization now happens before each signing session

And much more! Details here https://blog.coinkite.com/5.4.0-released/
