Oddbean new post about login | logout #Bitcoin Hardware Wallets are like underwear: - you shouldn't share them with others, - you don't show them in public, - and you buy new ones every other year. h/t Pirillo variant on passwords...
A new Coldcard every other year? Man, that's a lot of digital hardware in the landfill? Aren't the updates supposed to keep you safe over time?
Each hardware/chip generation can only go so far. Let alone security upgrades that require hardware change. Secure Elements are constantly being improved. My role is to build the best I can with each generation.
there is only so much silicon in the world
🤣
i'm talking about building a new nation from the ground up and you are giving me ignorant and trite answers
That's because you talking, not building. Talk is cheap.
Yes. That makes sense and is logical. I love your products NVK. Keep building, we need it.
Its a load of crap man. Educate yourself on what self custody is. It isn't a secure element...
What is your solution to self custody?
I don't store my seeds on digital hardware. I only store my seeds on steel. How you generate those seeds is up to you, but I use the bip39 word list printed out & cut up in a jar, mixed up & randomly picked. Then use your preferred HWW to generate & export the xpub, I prefer a seedsigner that you build yourself. If I use a HWW that stores the seed, like the CuckCard, I wipe the device after this process is done. I import the seed when a TX needs to be signed.
Planned obsolescence
It's very early in bitcoin. Too much to improve and innovate. Early days of cellphones, computers, modems, etc.. were no different.
Matter different
This is reason #874 why ill never touch a cold card.
What is ?
