42 sats \ 11 replies \ @DarthCoin 8 Dec 2023 \ on: I have trust issues with hardware wallets. (And so should you.) bitcoin
I used a Trezor and a Ledger, long time ago.... for testing mostly.
Once I saw that are useless for me, I gave them as a gift to a noob.
I never went to use ANY hardware wallet anymore.
I have better ways.
For me... waste your money on them... more sats for me.
It's part of the evolution of a bitcoiner.

True

I wish Trezor had not gone the shitcoin route, but overall feel they are a valuable group to have. Their open source libraries are what is behind a lot of other hardware wallets like Coldcard and Passport. Not sure if Seedsigner uses anything from them. Regardless, I still see value in Trezor, Seedsigner, Passport, and other bitcoin-only hardware wallets as part of a multisig setup to reduce dependency on any one vendor or component.
I haven't gone fully down the paper wallet route.
Stay away from Ledger though!

If you read my guides (no joke or bullshit) you will find out that life is much easier without any hardware wallet.
People are throwing money on them for nothing.
But I am totally fine with people buying expensive plastic shit, thinking that are giving them "security".... is like wearing a fucking mask in your car.
MORE SATS FOR ME SUCKERS!

Do you consider Seedsigner in the same category?

Thoughts on how even Luke Dashjr managed to mess up a non-standard cold storage setup and be hacked?

I found quite strange that story.
I incline to think it was just another "boating accident" method.
