Dr. Hax on Nostr: The hardware scematics are public, as is the firmware and the client. The electronics ...
The hardware scematics are public, as is the firmware and the client. The electronics are very simple (only one IC). So we're doing our best to earn people's trust, not just expecting it like closed source hardware.
It doesn't do signing. It coukd with some additional firmware code, but I'm reluctant to put a bunch of extras in there because it'll increase attack surface and make it harder to audit.
Having an alternate firmware that runs on the same hardware would be cool though. No reason it couldn't handle it.
