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?
