satspoor on Nostr: NVK I’m unsure about the risks involved with “type password over USB” feature ...
NVK (npub1az9…m8y8) I’m unsure about the risks involved with “type password over USB” feature in the ColdCard. I love the idea of generating a BIP-85 password and sending the keystroke to my computer, but am hesitant to connect my CC via USB because it would break air-gap.
Would have ignored this but the Secure Notes & Passwords feature led me to revisit.
How do you think about the risks? Are there ways to mitigate other than using a completely separate CC just for this?
