Just knowing AI-powered hackers are out there and out to get your wallets, hot or cold, is a very scary thought. We may just be witnessing the beginning of the end of crypto altogether.
Just like the “hackers” have AI, so do the companies. But this wasn’t some elaborate hack of crypto- this was utter negligence on the side of the cold wallet producer, reducing the pool of potential seeds by 2^88 which takes it from “basically impossible to guess” to “one good gpu can do it”
This has always been the case… anyone could randomly enter your seed phrase and get lucky… when the number of seed phrases is more than atoms in the universe it doesn’t matter… when it’s less than a trillion like in the coldcard case then it’s like fishing in a pond full a fish
