I just read some and actually the theory is great. Of course, I also do not agree with some of his views but he creates great content. I would like something other than a seed stored on a USB because I would like to access my wallet sometimes and such an imported seed is "burned".
No I'm not saying save the seed on the usb. Just use that tails usb to access that wallet and use the seed phrase and you only really need to do that when you are taking funds off that wallet. And if you are a good little Hodler you shouldn't be doing that.
When you setup that wallet you can copy a few addresses down by hand or snap a photo of a QR code and all you need to do to send funds to that wallet is use those addresses, no need to open it up

okay you meant using electrum in tails + save seed on paper or metal
reply
You got it. Please don't just write the seed on paper. Treat it like a backup, 2 is 1 and 1 is none. Multiple copies in multiple locations (secure of course) across multiple mediums.

And that just my cold storage.
My hot wallet it only has spending stats that if it was lost its not the end of the world.

Look up alphabet metal stamps on amazon and then go get some washers form the hardware store.

Okay meaning something like this. There are other types such as seed punching or arranging from letters in such forms
