No, the hacker is a prick if he doesn't give at least some of it back.

How a seedsigner differs from a cold card or blockstream jade?

- you don't show the world that you buy a bitcoin wallet, you buy some computer parts, can even buy them from separate stores or vendors
- no trust in any company needed to not put in back doors or whatever
- seed signer open source
- lower cost
Maybe missed something idk.

That shouldn't be the takeaway. The takeaway should be popularizing multisig models that use things like 2fa (mobile key and desktop key) to authorize transactions and slowly fading out single sig hot wallets.

I was thinking of using a desktop wallet to generate a signed psbt that would get scanned via qr code to one's phone before getting signed and broadcast there.
I haven't seen any articles about trying to use yubikeys to make ECDSA secp256k1 signatures from this year but it seems possible with some manual intervention (see the comment in the 1st link). Here are some of the newer articles I found from google:
https://www.reddit.com/r/yubikey/comments/rxz71h/since_yubikey_52_support_ec_secp256k1_couldnt_it/ (2022)
https://www.reddit.com/r/yubikey/comments/yqc6pu/yubikey_support_for_secp256k1/ (2022)
I only see EC algorithms in the context of OpenPGP ;(

This reminds me of Dashjr hack a while ago. It's really amazing how OGs and expert people put their big stacks at risk like this, while everyone is so paranoid today and we have so many good tools.

I'm surprised he only mentions his wife... Maybe she's more dangerous than an experienced hacker at extorting money :P:P:P:P
