It’s that time of the year again where I review my #Bitcoin security, and take the time to look at anything new that I may want to add.
This year I’ve been exploring stateless hardware wallets and SeedQR…I might be missing the point, but it feels like technical masturbation to me.
So instead of pulling out a hardware device that stores the seed on a secure element, I need to get my actual seed phrase out. Which means taking it out of a tamper bag, closing the blinds, covering any cameras, and loading it onto a device.
I get being paranoid, but if you are, wouldn’t you be a touch worried that someone put a hidden camera somewhere, and the moment you take out your seed QR, it gets scanned and swept?
