Dumb take.

There are a bunch of other attack surface those wallets don't protect you against and there are lots of trade offs.

Second under Mitigations; COLDCARD has always done RFC6979 signatures. That with repro builds are perfectly adequate. jade requires pin servers to be secure that is a huge trade off. Bitbox requires usb, huge trade off.


Stop using hardware wallets that don’t take security seriously (sadly, all of them except Jade and BitBox). This is a novel construction, but the class of attacks is very old.

A laptop purchased in person, immediately installing Linux without ever connecting it to the Internet is a much better way to store coin than hardware wallets. Which, frankly, is just embarrassing incompetence for the hardware wallet industry.
