No way

Moreover, make it a 2/3 multisig, GPG encrypt the seeds and then distribute the encrypted seeds to friend/family in other states/countries.

I'd rather have it offline.

Multisig requires the x/y/z Keys to be backed-up too, correct?
reply
Yes, that's right. The public keys themselves don't grant permission to spend of course, so you can make many copies.
A multi-sig backup scheme could look like the following:
1: HWW #1 + Seed #1 + xPubs #1, #2, #3
2: HWW #2 + Seed #2 + xPubs #1, #2, #3
3: HWW #3 + Seed #3 + xPubs #1, #2, #3
Where the seeds and xPubs are stored on laminated paper.

yes, that is good. but an encrypted backup you can just email yourself is good too imo.

Dude, that'd trigger my paranoia to the max.

I mean.. you'd have to type it before you encrypt it. There's a half dozen vulnerabilities on the way to that
reply
Exactly.

Just dont do that
