 Most of which can be mitigated with multisig. Why people refuse to upgrade to multisig is beyond me. 
 Collaborative multisig with inheritance planning is such a good product. With some you can even manage your wallet with Sparrow if you wanted to. Can’t ask for much more 
 Multisig is a pain. More to manage. Can’t be the answer. 
 Have you ever used a multisig? 
 Yes, and it’s stressful to have multiple signatures/devices to worry about, keep track of, along with the increased complexity of making a simple transaction. This is not a solution for the masses. 
 Something like the bitkey is a good multisig solution for the masses. There’s more of a trust trade off there. But I view it as a good onboarding tool. 
 True, there is trust and possibly some custodial risk. I can't wrap my head around thier security  model, like how can I conform on the device the transaction is what I want to do. 
 There need to be no trust tradeoffs or onboarding tools. Needs to be out of the box trustless security and privacy for complete idiots. 
 I mean that’s probably impossible 
 Making changes to an existing setup is scary, and isn't without risk. But better to set multisig up, play around with it for a few months, and then move your funds to multisig cold storage. 

Takes time and effort! 
 Yeah i think changes to custody set ups should be slow and orderly 
 💯. We’re working to change that. Slowly but surely. 
 You guys are great. I use you as my mobile with a tap signer 
 Thank you! Have you tried setting up a multisig wallet on Nunchuk? Would love to hear your feedback / any pain points you run into.

Tip: you can have the Tapsigner as one of the keys in the multisig. 
 Well, I am a little afraid I loose control with multi sig 🥺 
 that's with 5/3  3 possible defaults 🫢😱 
 I know, this is nonsense.
still I have to have 3 out of five working ... 
ahmmm... how I delete my nonsense here?

 You don't if you use several hardware wallets you own. 
 My thoughts exactly. I always worry about the long term viability of hardware wallets. Multisig with passphrase combination seems like a good middle ground imo.

Sparrow wallet checksum UI very helpful in this regard.
