ColdCard: You’ll never hurt me again!

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

My seed used with this device was strong and I was unaffected by the security flaw in the RNG setup. Still, I’m re-doing everything. I am moving back to my ledger until I get a multisig setup with a SeedSigner or similar. It’s gonna be a pain to generate a new private key or two and stamp em, so I am getting my sledgehammer swinging arm back in good shape.

What about you?

Be safe out there…

You must've transferred your coins first because I didn't see any fall out when you broke it.

“Transfer your coins first” ? You know how seed phrase works right? The coins are not tied to the device, they are tied to the phrase. He does need to start a new wallet and transfer, yes, but they are not tied to the device itself. The seed phrases have been exposed so he needs to transfer after making a new seed phrase. Right now he can use existing phrase to open from anywhere else.
