i encrypt it with gpg -c seed.txt

reply

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.

reply

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

reply

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

reply

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
