Thank you DarthCoin I like multisig because there is no 'single point of failure' and I can have multiple keys generated from different hardware wallets. So it is harder for one of them to cheat me or steal from me.

It also is easier (I think) for family to recover my Bitcoin in the event of my death. They can have a key and 'get another key' from another party in the event I died.

I am not comfortable having multiple copies of a single seed phrase because I don't want someone to find one. The more copies the easier it is for someone to find one... and that is unacceptable.

I fear myself (a little) and I fear the government. I don't know what the perfect solution is.

See those 12 peaks in far distance? Each one contain one word of a seed. I put one word on each peak. Nobody will be able to find it. Now the important question: how much time those peaks will stand? Almost eternity.

I fear myself (a little) and I fear the government.

Then bitcoin is not for you.

I don't understand Edit: I respect you but I don't understand your perspective.

The government is not our friend, and is frankly totally opposed to Bitcoin's original purpose: separating money from state.

Everything the government has done (so far) has been in opposition to Bitcoin as a medium of exchange. The EU is totally opposed and even the Americans haven't removed the Cap Gains Taxes on Bitcoin.

In my opinion if they really understood it they would try to crush it

this one you understand?

If you do not understand even this simple steganography, then you will never understand how multisig works.

There are only a few people in the world who could/would know how to put a Bitcoin private key inside an image. Truly one in many millions

Edit: I understand how multisig works. I have used it and I like it. But for most people balancing cost and complexity is not that simple. NYKNYC and all that but there is the real world also.

LOL are you serious? Where did you lived until now? Under a rock? Even a kid can do it with few clicks with multiple tools available:

... and many others FOSS

If that is so hard for you, read here: #1260936 - even a postal card sent to your mom can contain 12 words seed.

Also another example: I made over 7000 posts on nostr. Inside those posts there are 12 words of a seed. Find them if you can.
