@madpleb87 @SeedSigner Big fan of seedsigner! I had bitcoin noobs in mind and this feels like a little step above that

Leaking private keys is not the way imo. You guys already support multisig and miniscript, encourage noobs to use collaborative custody instead 🙏 https://t.co/t1wnvewTNZ

@LHodlemort You think backwards... We are trying to get the next 100 million users to to selfcustody. This isn't a service for maxis. And it's a very secure product. Most people keep their seed in the cloud or in their password manager... This is a million…
@KatieTheRussian An ounce of prevention… You get it 💪

1/5 Ledger offers new private key backup service that requires KYC documents. Bold move for a company that neglected to secure over 1 million customer records including full name, phone #, email, & physical address.
@Cocumbre I’d be cautious using any hardware wallet that isn’t betting maintained any more on the software side. I don’t know much about keepkey

If those votes are proportional to amounts invested, #bitcoin will rally the hardest, by far, in case of a US gov default. HT @profstonge https://t.co/DHVS4myPDZ

@_pgauthier @80percentdark I'm still confused... why offer risky backups for single sig private keys, when it's clear that the future of cold storage is in multisig and collaborative custody? You guys are already pioneers on that path by supporting miniscript.

Bitcoin is the 1933 Double Eagle of the digital world: as an asset its history and scarcity is singular, never to be matched. Even better: as a protocol it will survive any attempt to confiscate, dilute, or destroy. https://t.co/WAOddZ1L7Y https://t.co/Y79TtpVNFK
