Glenn on Nostr: Generate a new seed using the hardware wallet. Do not take a photo or store it ...
Generate a new seed using the hardware wallet. Do not take a photo or store it digitally in any way. Put on metal plates or on paper or some other analog format. Not digital!
Before you transfer funds add a BIP39 pass phrase to the device. This should be something memorable. Then transfer funds to new cold storage device.
The digital attack vectors are huge vs a metal plate with a padlock on it buried in garden or whatever.
Key point each of us only know a few hundred people in person but online we are connected to millions.
