I've wondered about Trezor lately. So what's consensus here, Trezor bad?
It is up to you to decide,
For me they are definitely a bad influence for the Bitcoin ecosystem and what it represents,
Why?
- They support alt-coins, most of them (99% IMO) scams
- They are in business with Wasabi Wallet, a known bad actor working with chain analysis companies
- The Trezor is Open Source, but the Chip they use is not Chip SE, which means, it is not secure enough to keep your funds, they use ARM Cortex-M3 and M4 processors with custom software
Those two reasons above should already give you pause for your think about it.
Now, if you are here, I assume you are a Bitcoiner, thus, Passport from Foundation and Coldcard from Coinkite are the ones I could recommend. Here an article I wrote about it: #226453 , I hope it helps.
Last but not least, if you are gambling with alt-coins or trading with alt-coins for a living, while doing the research looking for a decent seed signer for Bitcoin, found "Keystone" https://keyst.one/, they are, IMO, the most advanced of the alt-coins seed signers, Chip SE, Air Gap, etc, they check all the boxes but one, they support all the scams of the ecosystem...
Hope this helps
